After claybarring my car, I cna see myself in it very easily and it's freakin yellow

Like they've said, wash, dry, claybar, polish (optional), wax (not optional). You do not have to wash it again after that.

Also, break the claybar itself into 2 or 3 peices and DO NOT drop it. If you ahve a somewhat non sandy driveway, you can drop it and get away with it if yo kneed the hell out of the clay afterwards, but in general DO NOT drop it.

1 wash
2 hand dry (micro fiber is best)
3 Starting at the top of the car & finnish with the bottom. Clay bar about one square foot at a time. Use plenty of quick detail spray. You don't & shouldn't use much pressure. Knead, squish, flatten clay bar, do the next square foot of car. & yes it is a great idea to divide the bar into 3rds.

4 wash car again & hand dry
5 cleaner wax ( wax on wax off )
6 then your prefered wax or polish of choice.

I personally like Mothers clay bar kit & then Meguires premium gold class liquid wax.
