Ok thanks for the advice... to my knowledge it has never been done, so before I start doing all my other detailing I will clay bar it then put some wax on her! Thanks again!

 

yeah i clay barred mine today. havent seen her in the sun yet though so i dont how much of a difference it made but the clay had TONS of dirt & what not on it so i'm sure it helped at least a lil bit & the monte is hella smooth!!!! =)

 

I want to clay mine, but i heard it takes forever, how long did it take you Brittany? also, if I took my car to a detail shop will it be as good?

 

Chris, it doesn't take that long to clay bar our cars. Feel the surface and if it feels rough/gritty then that area needs clay bar. The whole car doesn't necessarily need to be clay bared. Places to look out for is the hood, decklid, roof, and back. Keep the surface lubricated with quick detail spray and keep kneading the clay. Oh and if you drop it on the ground, throw it away immediately. And you only need a small piece at a time. I have a bar that has lasted a couple of years.

 

i clay barred my entire monte lol. i was distracted a few times while doing it so between the clay bar & cleaner wax & the distractions it probably took me around 2 hours

 

We'll be there.

Representing the 6th and 7th generations.
Already got the room. (since last july)
Already registered the cars.

One 2003 Pace car.
One 2006 LTZ.

If I could find another driver I'd bring my '86 LS to the Nats.
(Of course I'm the one who's going to be behind the wheel of my '86?)

 

cool, I just got my monte national membership packet in the mail, still debating on going to the nationals in June!

edit: RJ, I'll drive the LTZ for you?

 

just talked to my mom about it & she said that as long as me, ryan & kris pay for everything i can go =) yayy! now i just gotta register to the association & I gotta find a hotel to make reservations at. anyone have recommendations for hotels in the area? i've never been to that area before & i dont feel like being in a bad area & getting killed on my lil road trip lol
