Default Re: Clay bar before Z5/Z2?

For initial car setup
1st wash car with the Dawn detergent, the blue color.
2nd claybar
3rd polish car. I use 1Z products and a Porter Cable ROB.
4th use Z5 as first coat
5th use Z6 as wipe down
6th use Z2 as 2nd coat
7th repeat steps 5 and 6 two more times
8th top with Z8 wipe down

Your car will now have a glass like finish with real depth.

Every 6 months repeat steps 4 through 8. I bet you will be adding coats of Z2 before a month is out because it looks so great.
