Well I picked up a Meguiars Clay bar kit on the way home today and tried it out. Got a lot of the spots off. Not all - but most. Considering I had never used a clay bar before - and really had no clue what to do with it other then reading the directions on the box - not too bad. I'm thinkin I kinda screwed myself when I waxed over the overspray with poly wax on Monday.

I used the spray detailer that came in the kit for lube. Is the clay supposed to move freely over the surface like on ice (super wet) - or should it be a bit "sticky" in order to work the best? It got NO black residue on the clay - so I assume the finish is really good - or did I do something wrong? I only did the hood where the worst of it was - after all the cleaning/waxing I've done the last week my hands and arms are SHOT...

Any hints for next time would be appreciated....
