RE: Clay Bar
did you use some sort of alcohol to remove the existing wax for the paint around the chip? the touch up paint wont come off with the clay bar, but in a few weeks it will start chipping if you didnt strip the wax off around the area first

RE: Clay Bar
well I spent 250-300 for all my detailing supplies, but its a one time purchase, the rest is just when products are getting low, to reorder them.
But I love using my Porter Cable and Pads on the car, its fun and makes the car look soo much better...

RE: Clay Bar
its a 7336 PC with a 5oz. counter weight so it spins randomly ...so as not to burn up the paint.
that was the most expensive, but as you could see in the pics, It needed it!
and the pics, I think it was maybe 1 coat of wax, I might not have gotten to it yet even.
