    Baggy test?

    I did the baggy test on my fully detailed chevelle and it didn't pass the test. I washed, clayed, polished and waxed it. I was wondering what i could use that would take the rest of the clay didn't take off.

    Does it still not pass the baggy test?

    Perhaps it needs to be clayed more thoroughly?

    More time coating is guess. You should test after you've clayed I believe, I know that I had to do my daily driver more than once to get rid of it all...

    Single stage or base/clear-coat paint?
    As suggested, more claying may do the trick.

    Was also thinking along the lines of Iron X (or TRIX), Finish Kare decontamination system, etc but honestly am not sure about using these on single stage paint (if that's what you have...)

    After you clay did you try and use a clean baggy?

    Did you baggy test it after you washed it or just after you clayed it? If so, you don't have much to base the results on of what it felt like before and after claying.

    What are you using for clay? Perhaps you need to step it up to a more aggressive clay bar. Which will most likely leave some marring that will need to be polished out.

    Maybe your baggy is dirty
