Clayed, waxed, drove... Like sandpaper!

Spent all day yesterday detailing. Today my paint feels worse than when I started!

Guess I'll have to redo it all next weekend

That doesn't seem right...

Any damage or just dirt clinging?

Need more details on your products and in what order you used them. Never heard of this before, even for a beginner.

Woke up early, just couldn't handle it...

Paint before:


Paint after:


It's some kind of grit sticking to the car. Maybe pollen?

I'm not a pro but this isn't my first go round either. Order of operations was:

2 bucket wash. Clay bar. Ice Premium care liquid wax.

2 panels done, time to get back to work!

You are most likely having tree sap stick to your car. That stuff is a real PITA this time of year and can make your paint feel gritty and sticky.

Yeah we are having that issue in Florida. I detailed my car on Saturday and Monday morning it felt like the surface of sour gummy worm. Little tiny bits of tree sap blowing through the air got me.

I think that's what got me too...

I am pretty sure it is the turtle wax stuff

 

[Ilovemyv8]

Yes it is turtle wax and sold at (a place I never go to)Walmart.

Need to polish after claying

6" orbital is next on my list.

If not turtle wax what do you guys recommend?
