I used Mothers yellow clay. It was super soft... easy to stretch etc etc.

I used a foam gun using DP super foaming formula as lubricant. Also to dry, used Adam's microfiber towels to dry. But, looking at how the swirls/scratches appeared, i think it came from my claying because i went up and down, not side to side and thats how the scratches were.

I obviously did something wrong to get the swirls. Maybe i'll use the detail spray next time that came with the claying kit. I just know that someone else on here (a professional detailer) said that the detail spray is fairly expensive to use just for claying and that using car wash shampoo and water would do just fine.

Anyhow, alittle more work to get those swirls out, just not happy that i had to go through that extra proccess and not be able to remove 100% of the swirls at that.
