Well I got the clay mitt on her today, just one wing to begin with. I couldn't believe how rough the paint felt! A few rubs and I could feel it getting smoother and smoother. It amazed me to think that my previous efforts which I thought were pretty good were actually just skimming the surface. I am going to clay her all over then attack her with the machine while she is feeling drowsy!
I might start on my MGF which is .of course, much smaller!
