This Sunday there is a Manchester meet. I don't want to let the side down and have people thinking I drive a rat so I was thinking of getting a clay bar on the jam-jar and maybe using that 'Ice Shine' wax. I also have AutoGlym.

Good idea? If it's a BAD idea please tell me why.

When I got my car (3 yrs old) the dealer sealed the paint with DiamondBrite which is supposed to be a 5 yr protection, am I wasting my time with a clay bar? Again if so, why?

As I only have Saturday to do the job, will I have enough time to complete the job without a garage to work in? (weather permitting) bearing in mind I also have to detail the black plastic surfaces, wheels, interior etc.

Not really a noob when it comes to polish but a bit of a detailing amateur. Any tips? This is what she looks like with a bit of time at the mo':



All help and tips appreciated.
