Dupont R2000 + claybar/wax

Anyone know that if I claybar my TW it will mess up the paint protection I got from the dealer? I know waxing isn't a big deal but I def need some clay bar action after this winter in MA, I got little bits of tar and shit all over the place!

There are several prople that have clay bar'd their cars and have had good luck from what I hear. I believe there's an entire thread about it floating around here somewhere, I'd just search for it.

I was hoping someone who has the same stuff knew, it came with a sealant cleaner but I don't know if it will give me that shine like a good paste wax will. I did clay-bar and am very very pleased with the results (Magic Clay) I guess I'll hit it with the cleaner and see how it looks. Thanks for the posts!

If you clay the car, you will remove most if not all of the sealant/wax thats on the car. Sonus green clay is very mild and won't strip away as much protection as Clay Magic, Mothers, etc....
