My wife's 2010 Dodge Charger has lot of Mercedes components/parts on it.

Using body clay is an annual procedure for proper finish care.
It doesn't entail any sort of special effort, for that matter, it is a very
simple process that is nearly impossible to screw up or do incorrectly.
A couple of pointers:
1.) Clay brand isn't important. For that matter, buy the

Cheap is a relative term
My comments were pointed at many of the consumer grade marketers that you see
in places like FLAPS where they are charging $18.00 for a clay bar and a spray
bottle full of soapy water.
In this regard, all things, for the most part, are equal.
That being said,

Not using enough liquid.
You don't typically have puddles of the stuff, although that won't hurt
anything if you do, but if the clay sticks or stutters when you move it
across the surface it is indicative of inadequate lubrication.

Hendrik,
I for one thank you for sharing your pictures, something in us humans makes us
curious about what others are doing and pictures are a great way to share.
I'll bet that if every one of us took a picture right now of the car we will

Certainly not mine, we live on a dirt road! I can't remember
the last time I washed the wheels...
In fact,
For some reason I can't stop looking at that ghastly tarted-up W140
with the wing, ground effects, and huge AMG wheels. Looks like Carat

I also was puzzled by the thing. It was brought by two Asian guys and I
never figured out what the point was. Everyone

Let's hope not! I've seen a few low-rider 300s, but I think those
were intentional.
Well I guess I am not that much of a car nut, a bit of dirt on the
family workhorse does not bother me, things not working does bother me.
So what if my wheels are not shiny, if people want to judge me on the
condition of my rims then I don't really want to know them.

No. People's choice is just a paper ballot vote for the car they liked
