    Shall I say it is the most gentle clay product on the market..

    Pinnacle?s Ultra Poly Clay is the single finest clay composition available today. Use auto Detailing clay to deep clean car paint, glass and chrome.


    I've not only had good luck with the Pinnacle Ultra Poly Clay - I've also shared a number of car detail projects I've done personally where I chose this clay just because I believe it will give me the best chance to clay the car, remove the contaminants and keep marring to a minimum.

    BUT - my RULE is - IF I'm going to clay a car - I"m also going to do at least one machine polishing step.



    Here's one example, a full write-up too, something you simply cannot find easily anywhere else, any longer.

    Re: Clay / polish question

    Here's another old 2-door European job I used the Pinnacle Ultra Fine grade clay on, this car had SUPER SOFT paint


    Original BASECOAT/CLEARCOAT paint - 1996 Porsche 993


    But again, I also machine polished afterwards.
