Looks good.

I wouldn't pay anyone to detail mine though. I'm huge on detailing...

clay will do some remarkable things to your car. dont be afraid to work it a bit... youll get back what you put into it. youll be shocked what itll take off.

Can you use claybar on the whole car? I usually only use it on lil areas. Just like rubbing compound.

sure can. some people even use it on their windows and headlights/tailights to help get some of the tougher stuff off.

well, if you want to protect the surfaces you just cleaned, then yes, it would be smart to wax afterwords. otherwise youve just cleaned a surface that is ready to become dirty/damaged again.

just make sure you use a lube with the clay, such as detailer spray, or even soap and water.
