Default Freezer Bag Test--ON Topic

Was at a Porsche concourse event a few weeks ago and saw the judges using freezer bags over their hands as a "test" of how smooth and oxydisation free the paint was. Tried it later at home on my S--Felt like the surface of the moon, really dissapointed I was.

I will now strip off all my Zaino, clay bar and start again, if after all the repeat effort the paint furrs up again , I will probably convert to caranuba based product.

Comments please.

Allan

Yeah, I've used this before. Using a fag packet cellophane & two fingers.
It's the best way to feel the smoothness of the paintwork. It's amazing, and embarrassing, at how bad the paintwork can get.

The claybar should resolve your "crater paint".

After a Lehm-Klay & HD-Cleanse my paintwork is super smooth for the wax coat.

IMHO You shouldn't need to use the claybar more than twice a year.
