What is clay bar car cleaning? 

Of course, we’re not talking about a hard block of fired clay… a car cleaning clay bar is a soft, clay-like putty which acts like a dirt eraser. It is used in partnership with clay lubricant, and the powerful pair removes all sorts of contaminants from a car’s paintwork. Even when a car is washed and shampooed, there will still be contaminants which have embedded in the clear coat. 

What makes clay barring unique is its effectiveness without damaging the clear coat. Clay barring a car leaves it in perfect condition for detailing with a perfectly smooth surface which gently lifts pollutants.

Why detailers use clay barring

Remember those tiny specs on your car which don’t come off with a wash, despite how much elbow grease you use? Well, if they come loose during machine car polishing or detailing, think of the damage this would cause to your otherwise perfect paintwork. 

If these bonded contaminants come loose during polishing, they’ll work their way across the paint, leaving small scratches behind. For the perfectionist car owner, this further imperfection would be infuriating, so it’s best to use clay barring to get this sorted before any detailing. 

Small marks here and there won’t bother some car owners, but again, for the perfectionist, these stubborn marks become an eyesore (despite their small size) so removing them with a clay bar is the best solution. 

Clay bar car cleaning injects life back into paintwork. If your paint is looking dull and faded, a clay bar will remove the contaminants causing this and bring a vibrant shine to your car. Oxidisation is another reason for clay barring a car, especially in the UK where it rains often, and even more so in coastal areas where there is salt on the roads.

The main reason for clay bar car cleaning is preparing for detailing. Any work undertaken will be a waste unless the car is cleaned intricately and to the highest standard before starting.
