The problem is that if you use an aggressive clay bar, then it will mar the paint and you'll have to do some correction anyway. So be careful if you go down that path. The clay bar is used to remove contaminants that don't come off in a standard car wash. Leaving your paint feeling smooth. However, the CB will not fix scratches and swirls in your paint. Be sure to use lots and lots of lube if you use the CB. The more lube, the better. Where have we heard that before?

And you'll have to reapply paint protection (sealants/wax) after using the CB.
