Don't make the mistake I made. I used the clay bar on a clear bra from the factory and all it did was make marks. Luckily, I did a small test spot. You can't see in the picture but trust me, now I know you're not suppose to clay clear/invisible/films, bras etc etc. So, how do you get the surface smooth? Thanks in advance.

You can clay clear bra (PPF). I don't think that CB is from the factory though. I would be it's dealer installed. Use soft clay & lots of lube. PPF can also be polished/corrected. I just polished out some decent scratches out of some PPF on my car. Removing clay marring shouldn't be too difficult. Yes the PPF is dimpled from rock impacts or crappy installation - but the scratches are fairly easy to remove.

Thanks. I'll give it another try with my flex 3401. I have many compounds to choose from Menzerna, Blackfire, and Wolfgang. I'll let you know how it turns out.

Typically I finish it with CG black light. CB can be a hit or miss with polishing. New ones yes, old ones nooooo. General rule of thumb, you will not make these look 100%. Just a bit better
