It is time consuming. But no you can't damage your paintwork only make it better. As long as you keep it well lubricated with the spray you get you will be fine..

This kit is really easy to use, you only need a small coin sized piece of clay,spray the paint surface with the detailer,then the clay,wipe off excess ,job done,Hardly any effort and makes such a difference.
I think it would be quite hard to get wrong as its so simple, if you do drop the clay though, throw the piece away and start with a fresh piece, Go on give it a try!!

Used incorrectly most car cleaning/detailng products will cause damage to a greater or lesser degree.

The instructions provided with the kit are straightforward and, followed correctly, will ensure no damage to your paint and, ultimately a smooth clean surface ready for further correction/protection.

Like I have said in my review, use plenty of the supplied lubricant. Also use the reccomended amount of clay, apply very little pressure when using and you'll be fine.

Used it today on a BMW that has previously only been wash/waxed and the results were impressive. You won't regret it.

It is easy to use but takes quite a long time to use it. It will not damage your paintwork.

I dont think this would solve the problem as its not abrasive enough, I think you would need the sort of products that car bodyshops use with a polishing machine, Hope this helps

Unfortunately we cannot recommend what to use unless we saw a photo of the paintwork. Please take your car to your local Halfords store and they should be able to recommend the best product to use

The Autoglym Surface Detailing Clay Kit can be used to remove paint overspray from the exterior of a car, although the longer the paint has been on the surface the stronger the bond will be, so it is better to get to it sooner rather than later. The clay kit will not remove the vehicle paint though.
