How to Remove Bonded Surface Contaminants
[By Dr. David Edward Marcinko MBA]
Claying is the process of removing bonded surface contaminants from your car that cannot be removed by washing alone and that need to be eliminated before the polishing process, using synthetic poly clay.
It works by gently pulling and lifting the bonded contaminants off the surface which then become encapsulated in the clay.
A detailing spray, or designated clay lube is used to lubricate the surface to prevent the clay bar from inflicting damage as it is drawn across the surface.
The Process
One panel at a time is worked and once the clay has picked up contaminants it can be folded and remolded to reveal a fresh, clean surface and prevent any contaminants being drawn over the surface.
Claying is primarily used to remove bonded contaminants from the paintwork of your car but can also be used on glass, metal and other parts of your car depending on the grade of the clay being used.

You should clay your car if you are looking to achieve the best possible results. The depth of shine and reflection of a polished and waxed vehicle may be compromised if bonded surface contaminants have not been removed. It is important to clay your car before polishing because if the contaminants are picked up during the polishing process they may be drawn over the surface inflicting light scratches and swirl marks.
It is also important to ensure bonded contaminants are removed because they will act to attract and accumulate other dirt and debris and if left bonded to the surface for a long enough period of time may even weaken the paintwork underneath.
