Frequently asked questions
Will the clay bar scratch my paint?
Used with proper lubricant and technique, clay is safe and won't mar the finish.
How often should I decontaminate?
A couple of times a year, or before any polish or coating so you're working on a clean base.
What's iron remover for?
Iron remover dissolves embedded iron particles (rail dust, brake dust) that clay can't fully lift, so the paint is truly decontaminated.
Do I need this before a coating?
Yes — coating bonds best to a clean, decontaminated surface. It's a key prep step.
How is this different from the Signature Foam Hand Wash + Clay Bar?
This is a focused decontamination service. The Signature service combines a full foam hand wash with the clay bar for a complete clean.
