Should you clay bar paint protection film ?

I purchased Mother’s Speed 2.0 clay bar. It’s supposed to be the next generation clay bar technology that some friends suggested.

Mothers Speed® Clay 2.0 - Clay Bar

Some people say it is totally fine to use clay bar on paint protection film (clear bra) while others say do not do it. Some say it will damage it. What are you guys think?

depending on the strength of the clay and the type of film you have it could damage the film. There often isn't as much of a need to clay bar the film as much as your exposed paint.

I have used it on the film with no issues. However, tape the edges before you do. It’s easy to get the clay caught on the edge and difficult to clean. It will leave a bit of residue which then makes the edge more noticeable.

Mother’s Speed 2.0 Clay is unlike any traditional clay bar. It’s a rubber patented technology. I haven’t tried it yet but heard it’s pretty good and easy to use.

If it's not paint then you don't need to clay it. Just wash the bra and use something like Adam's Guard and Gloss or CarPro Reload over the entire car! It's awesome stuff.
