Smile clay bar + carnuba wax

after washing my car on tusday i discovered that the car was full of white over spray fram someone in the neighborhood painting their house, the following day i decided to clay bar the car after i clay bared the car i thought that the finish on the car was gone so then i washed the car again and saw that there was hope for the finish to go back to normal. To my surprise after waxing the car with mothers carnuba wax the finish on the car now looks like glass. Very happy with the results totall project time took around 4 hours. The pictures dont show the actual glass look due to too much sun on the camera lens.

Very nice shine. Did you buff by machine or by hand?
