I remeber seeing a Mothers claybar kit at Auto Zone for around 20 bucks.

Classic Motoring is a place where you can find helpful information and also order detailing products.


If you have a Porter-Cable polisher, you could try 3M Perfect-It Swirl Mark Remover. There is a formula for light colored as well as dark colored paint. Both products contain no wax and will leave a glass-like finish. I have tried a number of different products on my black Accord and this was the only one that removed all of the water marks.

Hmm I'm not really sure if it would help to clay bar the zaino itself... so this is what I'm thinking you'll need to do;

Dawn soap, get all wax off and dry the car.

Clay bar the car down (in the mothers kit the spray should be lubricant spray, not detailing). Follow instructions on a paper inside the box.

After you have done all of the car/most of the car wash it again (I suggest with dawn soap again).

Once thats done, go ahead and Zaino again.

if you have zaino car wash...a light mixture in a spray bottle should do it.
I have no knowledge on what comes with the mothers kit.
you don't have to dawn your car after claybay but you could wash it with a regular car washing agent.
