I am thinking of claying my car soon and wonder if someone could tell me how the clay bar is used i.e. is it just spray on the lubricant and rub the clay back and forth over the bodywork? How do you know when you need to turn\knead the clay to avoid damage. I havent done this before so any help appreciated.

From memory when I had some paintwork done, you are supposed to leave it a few weeks (6?) before treating the paint at all.
That sounds like what I've heard elsewhere Jo :nod:
And of course polishing has the opposite effect and will remove teeny tiny amounts of the surface, especially whilst still "fresh" and is another definite
for the 1st 6 weeks at least.
