Chicago Jax Wax Detailing Tip of the Week: Don’t Skip the Clay Bar!

Want that glass-smooth finish on your vehicle’s paint? Washing isn’t enough—clay bar treatment is the secret weapon.

Why Use a Clay Bar?

Even after a good wash, your paint can still have embedded contaminants like brake dust, industrial fallout, and tree sap. A clay bar lifts these impurities, leaving the surface silky-smooth and ready for waxing or ceramic coating.

Pro Tip:

Use Chicago Jax Wax Clay Magic with a proper lubricant. Work in small sections, and always follow up with a polish or wax for protection and shine.

Benefits:

Restores a smooth finish

Enhances shine and gloss

Preps paint for better wax/sealant bonding

Common Mistake:

Never clay a dry surface—use plenty of lubricant to avoid micro-scratches.

Bottom Line:

Clay before you coat—your paint will thank you.
