This kit supplies three 80 g clay bars formulated to glide over clear coats without cutting, plus a full-size quick detailer to lubricate the process and a microfiber towel to refine the surface. With more clay than many starter kits, it’s designed to treat several panels or multiple vehicles before replenishing clay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this clay kit improve wax and sealant longevity?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonded particles like overspray, brake dust fallout and industrial fallout sit on and in your clear coat, preventing coatings from seating evenly. Clay removes those contaminants so topcoats bond to the actual paint, not to loose debris, which helps coatings perform as intended. The included lubricant minimizes friction so the clay won’t grab or mar the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThree 80 g clay bars provide 240 g total for multiple panels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuik Detailer acts as a clay lubricant and leaves a slick surface for coating application.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMicrofiber towel removes residue and polishes the finish before waxing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the clay safe for modern clear coats and ceramic surfaces?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clay formulation is non-abrasive and developed to work on contemporary clear coats without sanding or abrading the finish when used properly. It’s intended to remove above-surface contaminants rather than correct paint defects. When used with ample lubricant and light pressure, the clay glides, reducing risk of marring; follow with your chosen polish or coating as needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNon-abrasive clay suited for clear coats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUse with supplied Quik Detailer to prevent surface marring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNot a substitute for compounding or scratch correction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I use the kit step-by-step for best results?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBegin by washing and drying the vehicle to remove loose dirt.
