Hi Mike,

I watched your video using the Speedy Clay towel.

I thought it would be a good choice for me as I have a red 2005 GMC 2500HD Crew Cab, a white 2001 Lexus GS 300 and a red 2004 Jeep Unlimited I will be tackling soon. The car and truck are outside 24/7 car daily driver. The Jeep was outside for the last three years until I made room last year in the garage for it.

All of there paint is is good shape the truck probably has some mild oxidation'

All have some swirl marks (looks like it was from wash mitten or towel drying maybe, not a bad buffing job) do to past years of washing.

I don't have much experience with claying a car out.

So I'm not sure which one would be better to get the fine or the medium towel?

Do you have a video comparing the two?

Thank you for all of your help.
Scott

Hi Scott,

Go with the Fine Speedy Towel. The Medium is fairly aggressive and can mar medium to dark colored paints.

The Fine Grade Speedy Prep towel is more than enough tackle most cars.


I would also highly recommend you either plan on doing some type of polishing either by hand or by machine after claying to ensure a perfected finish before applying your LSP

Thanks Mike,

I wasn't sure and not having any experience. My first thought was if fine grade will do a good job, then medium will probably do it better.

But after being on/reading AG forums the last couple of months I have decided it's better to ask then assume something.

Thanks again for your time, I know your very busy.
