Thanks Moe,

little confused though...
In speaking with the technical dept. of Zymol, they said right out "do not use klay on new cars" He did say however, to definitely use HD Cleanse and Wax. What are your thoughts on this? I see in the GT3 example above your removed some grime?, but is it on a new car case by case? Maybe most cars don't need it and some do? so confusing.... can it hurt the new paint by doing it if it doesn't need it?

Zymol Tech Support is always on the cautious side because of liability reasons. I klay every car I do a full detail on and it's safe. Don't worry, I take into consideration the risks and rewards of all the advice I give. You'll be fine. Call you later today; didn't get a chance to break away yesterday.

You can try HD-Cleanse polish. It should do the trick; if not, I'll buy it back. If purchased from me

Nice soft uncallised hands?
I also will NEVER Zymol a car before lunch, it just makes you drool.

I only have the older Zymol Le-kem clay ($75 per bar), it is on the abrasive side, so maybe the Tech dept doesn't know the new stuff is much less abrasive?

Yes; Lehm Klay I was pretty aggressive. Good for the professional but not for the DIY. The new Lehm Klay 3 is much more gentle and safe on new paint.
