Surface rust on new polo

[snedden9485]

So I'm after clay polish? Will get some today.

Clay is a small flexible 'pad' (like blu-tack) that you use to rub over the surface of the vehicle, in conjunction with a manufacturers solution (usually provided with the pad in the form of a kit). Ensure that you do not drop the 'clay' onto the ground and that you continually 'turn/fold' the clay to ensure you are presenting the cleanest surface of the pad to the car.

Process requires 1% elbow grease, and in reality, would take less time than a wash/chamois of the same area. The process is a pre-cursor to detailing the duco, removing road and air born contaminants, and providing an improved surface for the polish (of your choice) and wax to do their thing.

I clay'd our .:R32 and the Polo and both vehicles showed significant signs of paint presentation than OEM.

Bottom line....you will be amazed.

I cannot believe a dealer sold you a car without removing rust spots!!!!!!!!!

At least our cars have a 12 year anti-corrosion warranty.
