Ok I went for a job interview today because there's a new dealership just ouside of Willard and they were looking for a Detailer so I was all over it. I go there to talk to the guy and really seemed to know his stuff. He's been buying, detailing and reselling the cars for the past 16 years so one would think he knows what he is doing.
However, I ponder this question. He told me that when they get new cars in fresh from the factory they clay them firsthand and never wash them because it takes too much time. He said if you use some of those car washes with gloss enhancers or wax in it, they will reduce the effectiveness of the clay. Meaning, the gloss enhancers or wax left behind by the car wash, the clay will just glide over the surface and not pick up anything. He said if you do need to wash a car, use a soap such as Pamolive or Dawn then do your claying. Anybody have an explanation of this?? I can see his point about the surface being slippery from the car wash but never thought of it this way, although it does make sense,,,,,,AR
