One piece was used for the lower half and the other was for the top half of the car.




For what it's worth, I'm just making a suggestion to avoid a possible future mistake. I'm always afraid to use clay that's that dirty. Especially when it's been resting on something that's covered in dirt & debris. They say you should replace you clay if it's dropped(even on clean ground) because it picks up damaging particles and will scratch the finish. Even if you knead the heck out of it. All those particles in that piece of clay are abrasive and even though they're embedded in the clay, they can/will scratch to finish. I guess if your clay is picking up that much contaminants, you'd have to constantly knead it or do a decon wash prior.
