Quick question, maybe someone out there can explain to me. But if I were planning on detailing my car using a somewhat abrasive polish, why would I need to do a clay bar first? I mean, I understand that the clay removes things that regular washing cant, but if im goign to be polishing, whats the point? I would imagine the polish would remove what the clay bar removes also....
Im just curious and I am in no way an expert with detailing....
