Clay Bars

Clay Bars & Fine Wash Mitts

Does your car’s surface feel rough, even after a wash? Your car is covered in microscopic contaminants that settle into the exterior and resist washing. These tiny particles dull your car’s coat, contaminate your towels, interfere with waxes, and promote paint oxidation. Restore that like-new finish without removing the paint. Before you polish, a sticky clay bar gently removes that dirt, brake dust, industrial fallout, overspray, sap and tar, pollution, water spots, and embedded debris, leaving your car’s surface as smooth as glass. As a well-kept secret, why use a clay bar before a polish? They remove different kinds of blemishes in different ways. Unlike more abrasive polishing techniques for buffing out scratches, clay bars and fine mesh wash mitts preserve your paint job by using no pressure at all. Clay bars work on more than just paint: they also improve chrome and polished metal, glass, and clear optical plastics. Every inch of your car is covered! A clay bar is an important part of any car care kit, alongside our soft microfiber towels, polishes, waxes, and detailing spray. Alternatively, our magna sponges and fine mesh wash mitt offer the same polishing results, but with a longer life and lower maintenance than a traditional clay bar. Choose different clay bars for your needs, such as detailing clays, polymer clays, and fine- and medium-grade clay bars. We even offer a handy clay bar box to protect it! If you’ve never used a clay bar, master this easy technique in minutes with our video on how to clay bar. Don’t leave your car’s paint exposed to weather, dirt, and damage: claying is a simple and effective way to protect your paint and set the stage for a great polish and wax. No matter your needs, SoCal Wax Shop carries all of the essential clay bar and car paint detailing products needed to prep your car for a polish and wax!
