Key Features of CarPro Clay Bar Set

- High-Quality Clay Composition: CarPro’s clay bars are made from a premium blend of synthetic clay compounds. These compounds are designed to remove contaminants like industrial fallout, tree sap, road tar, brake dust, and other pollutants that bond to the surface of your vehicle’s paint, glass, and metal.

- Gentle on Surfaces: Unlike traditional abrasives, CarPro clay bars are engineered to not damage the paintwork. The soft texture ensures that only contaminants are removed, leaving your paint smooth without marring or swirl marks.

- Safe for All Vehicle Types: CarPro clay bars are safe for use on all vehicle types, including clear-coated and non-clear-coated paints, glass, chrome, and plastic trim.

- Extended Use: The clay bars come in three 100g bars, with each bar capable of being used multiple times when stored properly. Simply break the bar into smaller pieces, knead, and use for various sections of the vehicle.

How Clay Bars are Used in Detailing

Clay bars are an essential tool in the paint decontamination process, especially when preparing a vehicle for waxing, coating, or polishing. They work by physically pulling contaminants from the surface of your car using a gentle, friction-based technique.

Step-by-Step Guide to Using the CarPro Clay Bar

1. Wash and Dry the Vehicle: Before using the clay bar, thoroughly wash your vehicle to remove loose dirt, grime, and debris. A clean surface ensures that the clay bar will work more effectively without causing scratches or additional contamination.

2. Lubricate the Surface: Apply a generous amount of lubricant or clay bar lubricant (like CarPro Elixir or CarPro Immolube Clay Lubricant) to the surface of the vehicle. This creates a slippery surface that prevents the clay bar from sticking and helps it glide smoothly across the paint.

3. Knead and Flatten the Clay Bar: Break off a small piece of the CarPro Clay Bar and knead it to soften and flatten it into a disc-like shape. This process ensures that the bar can conform to the surface of the vehicle, making it easier to target specific areas with contaminants.

4. Clay the Vehicle: Gently glide the clay bar across the lubricated surface in a back-and-forth motion. You’ll feel slight resistance when the clay bar encounters contaminants such as tar, sap, or brake dust. Keep the surface well-lubricated and work in small sections for best results.

5. Wipe and Inspect: After each section, wipe the surface with a clean microfiber towel to remove any remaining lubricant and contaminants. Check your towel for any dirt or debris that the clay has picked up, and be sure to knead the clay bar regularly to expose a clean surface.

6. Reapply Protection: Once the clay bar has been used on the entire vehicle, it’s crucial to follow up with the application of a protective product such as wax, sealant, or ceramic coating. Since the surface is now smooth and free of contaminants, these products will bond more effectively and provide superior protection.
