Clay Bar and Wax

Well just getting around to posting these. I Clay Bar'd and waxed my truck about 3 weeks ago now, and just wanted to share the results. First time I have used a clay bar, but I was pretty impressed with it. Used the meguiars clay bar kit and meguiars nxt 2.0 wax. I have only had white trucks for 10 years now and I have never used anything that gave white such a deep/mirror finish like this... After I clay bar'd I used the cleaner wax that came with the kit, took less than the 4oz bottle on the whole truck. I didn it all by hand and couldn't believe how easy it was to take back off. I am sure many have done this, but if you haven't and thought about I would say do it.Anyway here's the results!

clay bar, cleaner wax, and then nxt wax was about 6 hours if I remember right. The most time consuming was the clay bar, have to keep kneeding the bar after it pulls stuff out, lot of rubbing, but then after that the 2 coats of wax was breeze
