So I'm in the market for a new car. I'm lazy and I hate washing cars. I also don't really like having a dirty car and am too mean to go to the hand car wash down the road (srsly, it has the longest queue in town - there is an actual burger van than serves food to people in the queue).
Obviously the dealer will try to sell me Diamond Brite or something similar for about £500. Google says it's OK but the chemicals are about a tenner and the people applying it generally just slap it on.
Is there something of a similar price that (a) works better and (b) will be as easy for me as handing the car over for a bit and waiting while somebody else does it? Kind of like the Ducks Back you get from Halfords but for paintwork.
(Oh and since I've spent 15 mins on detailing sites trying to get answers - what is a clay bar and why would I use one on a car?)
