Default Have you felt how smooth the paint is? It makes it all worth it?
It doesn't take that long. Took me an hour tops. Spray lubricant, clay bar, clean clay bar, repeat.

Default BTW, if you want a really good detailer, I know a guy in Houston. He does fantastic work
He has a detailing business. He's had a few Audi's and a 996 Porsche 911. He's very meticulous. I think he posts on the Texas forum too. His name is Nick.

Default I can wash/clay/wax and completely detail the car in under 2 hours.
You just need to learn the tricks, like keeping a solid coat of wax on it!!

Yup. It does not take that long to claybar our cars. I'd say no more than 10 minutes per panel.
