Default Clay bar ????

This may sound like a stupid question,but here goes anyway.
when you use a clay bar on a section ,say the back door,
When do you know when you are done?[:I] I told you it was a stupid question.

I'm sure you had an elementary school teacher tell you "There's no such thing as a stupid question".[:I] Now - to answer your question - when the clay bar doesn't "pull" anymore (it just glides over the surface) and/or when the finish feels like glass (put a baggie on your hand and compare clayed to not-yet-clayed sections).[8D]

PTRon has it. Just keep the clay bar wet - when it meets no resistance, you're done.[|)]

PTRON hit it right on...,
When the finish feels like glass..., you are good to go

Claying is one of my favorite parts of detailing
