Can you feel any bumps or roughness? Clay it! If not, skip it. The sandwich bag test is important because our hands are too soft to actually feel the contaminates in the paint.

The main goal of the clay is to remove dirt and surface contaminants before you polish and wax.

Hope this helps

Hey Brad,

Glad to see you are still surfing around here! Hope things are going well. We'll be talking as we get closer to the March detail date.
