Technique should be the same. The quick detailer contains a lubricant which stops the clay bar damaging your paint whilst still being able to remove the other contaminants. If you are using shampoo should be a very rich suds mixture, but take extra care to keep the area you are working on well lubricated. Clay bar needs to be soft enough to work with as leaving it hard can also damage your paint so ensure warmed up first by immersing in warm water for a few minutes.

Work on an area around 2' square and keep well lubricated
