Wax or seal or in some way protectively coat the paint, yes. The clay bar will strip all the existing wax off the paint.

I have a paint correction question. With the soft paint on the 86, is it possible to avoid using wool, micro fiber or denim pads to flatten out orange peel or can we get away with more aggressive polishing pads and compounds instead of typical cutting materials?

And when I put the microfibers in the washing machine can I throw in my foam pads in the same load?

microfiber pads are great for cutting and foam pads I still prefer for finishing. |

What would you say these marks are from? Tree sap? How should I go about removing them?
