Why clay & seal
A car wash doesn't get it all off
Bonded grime
Salt film, rail dust and industrial fallout bond to clear coat. Run your hand over the paint in a sandwich bag; if it feels gritty, it needs clay.
Slick, protected paint
Clay leaves the surface smooth so sealant can bond. Sealant adds gloss and makes salt, bugs and grime release easier at the next wash.
Before & after winter
Seal in the fall before the salt trucks roll. Wash, clay and re-seal in spring to take the winter off.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
How long does the sealant last?
The Wash, Clay & Seal sealant lasts up to 12 months depending on driving, washing and weather.
Is this better than an automatic car wash?
Yes. It's a hand wash, and the clay bar removes bonded contamination a car wash leaves behind. Then the sealant protects the paint.
Should I get an exterior detail before winter?
That's the best time. Sealed paint gives salt and brine less to stick to, and makes winter washes much easier.
Can you remove road paint or tree sap?
Yes, as add-ons. They're quoted based on how much there is.
