Sorry, but the same isn't exactly true up here. The public workers are lazy and do a very bad job; more often than not, in a 5-man team only one of them will be working whilst the others stand around smoking cigarettes and whistling at passing women. Our roads are amongst the worst in the world, a lot of parks I drive by every day are overgrown with vegetation and there is a lot of litter. They are almost always on strike, demanding better pay, better advantages, better working conditions; but they don't deserve it*. I drove back to work today and where the paint had splattered on my car, there were countless tire tracks... I don't know what they were thinking painting those lines in the middle of rush hour.

In any case, the clay bar helped but not a whole lot. Believe it or not, the cleaning wax provided with the Mothers' kit did a better job that the clay bar itself. I think that the next step is having it professionally wetsanded, but my mother's cousin is booked to hell.
