Clay lifts stubborn paint contaminants and leaves the paint ready for further work.

Rub over car with a lube (quick detailer or diluted shampoo).

I will find you a video  :happy2:

Did you read it and watch the video Keano posted?? :confused:

No, T-Cut is an extremely harsh/crude cutting paste designed to remove dead cells and clear-coat from the surface of paint. And more than likely will just scratch more than anything else. Clay removes contaminate's such as Tree sap, Bird lime and tar without scratching/damaging the top coat. It then prepares the surface for polishing and then waxing.

Yes I did and don't recall seeing a comparison to T-cut, That's why I asked the question   

Thank-you for answering it in detail ....  :happy2:

If you havent used clay before you'll be amazed.

It's the biz for allowing the polish, glaze and wax to do their jobs properly.

Try Ben at Rubbish Boys - his postal service is fantastic (and he's a nice guy).

I'm claying for the first time this weekend. I've been out and bought the Megs Smooth Surface Kit. Really looking forward to giving it a go. I'll be polishing with SRP, then glazing with Black Hole then waxing with Collinite 476s.
