I have never used clay myself but have seen many before and after photos on here and the results are excellent. Does it give a similar result to T-cut or is it better?
is claying better that T-cut?

wat grade clay bar were u using? cos i am a valeter and detailier and never encountered scratches after claying? these can happen if apply too much pressure. u only need to glide the clay across the finish not push it just keep it well lubricated and glide it dont push it! also was the car washed properly? cos most people dont wash them properly leaving small patches of muck and wen u go over with the clay u will be dragging the muck with it which anit gud! take my advice and make sure the car is prperly washed and dryed use a lambswool wash mitt and waffle weaved drying towel or microfiber towel then clay ur car using plenty of lubricant! i use meguairs chemicals and i feel they r the best quality money can buy

i think t-cut does a gd job on old faded cars but wouldnty suggest using it for a car between new-9 years old. im a valeter myself alsoand i always wash my car 3 times before applying any polish or clay but i think if someone before you uses a ruff polish on the car then when you clay it its inevitable you are going to find the scratches this polish has caused.
One lesson I learnt about claying... never do it in sunlight!
I did, being a bit overenthusiastic to get it done and the lube dried as I was claying... led to a lot of scratches on the bonnet that I *hope* can be corrected out!
Other bits of the car were fine and it made a massive difference to the shine and the feel of the paint as well... so smooth

Well after you have shot the cat, i would try some scratch x, or i had alot of success with quixx scratch remover. Then use a good polish like SRP on top.Phew, might save a bonnet respray
How about cat pawprint scratches? Hasn't gone down to primer, maybe a touch deeper than the marring?
Hi there twin! - does yours have swirl marks all over it? Mine has been well looked after and is very glossy after a wash but the swirl marks are pretty bad all over. Having never heard of clay before I might give that a go at some point and try the autoglym stuff on the swirls.
