Used Maguire's Clay bar...(m)

David Brent · 02-03-2008, 03:13 PM

and their wax on my sparkling graphite 335i. Car looks great but a lot darker. Is this a product of the clay bar or just that particular wax?

Wax..

Clay only cleans the paint...nothing to do with paint color.

Could be a function of getting the crap off the car with the clay and therefore it just appears darker?

arabbmw · 02-03-2008, 11:48 PM

which one of their waxes did you use?

i bought theMeguair's Clay bar kit last week, the result is amazing!

removed lots of dirts and now the paint surface is smooth. the promotional kit came with a polishing towel, 2 pieces wrapped clay bars contained in a special box, a bottle of quick detailer and a small bottle of cleaner wax.

i find the cleaner wax very good too compared to NXT wax.

I recently switched over to the products recommended here on this forum. But in regards to Meguiar's products, I have used it for over 10 years prior to switching. I am a huge fan of the #7 Show Car Glaze, and #26 Carnauba Wax. I have the cleaner wax as well, but it's just sitting on the shelf, as the #26 looks so much better. For washing, I use Meguiar's Deep Crystal car wash.
