Beautiful job.

I cant even see my original colour under all the salt.

Clay bars remove the embedded contaminants that a polish won't touch. It makes your finish remarkably smooth and prepares it for the next steps. Although the clay itself doesn't "polish/wax" your finish, it allows these products to work better, therefore making the end result better.

What? Like Perma Plate or something? Yeah, it gets pretty good reviews, but not much different than polymer or acrylic sealants though, which are more widely available. Some folks actually like to use wax even though it doesn't last very long - it gives them something to do

and the shine usually jets better (looks deeper) than a sealant.
