Clay barring a car
I was just wondering if you can clay bar a car if it is dusty?..

If it's truly just dust, that's not really what clay is meant for. If you're talking about claying it while dusty, you really should do it after a good full wash so the least amount of contaminants possible are on the car when you touch the paint.

The answer is below your user name.
The paint must be clean and well lubricated in order to clay bar.

The car must be clean and well lubricated while Claying.
If you were to do it while dusty it would scratch the surface and waste the clay by contaminating it very fast. |
