I have my first BMW, a 1987 white 325is. Does this car have a clear coat or is it single-stage paint? And the meat of my question: is it safe to use a clay bar on a car with no clear coat and what precautions should I use? Is it safe to use a polish on the paint without risk of wearing through it?

I clay bar-ed my car after I got it. It really brought the paint back from the dead IMO. After that I got out the polish and took my time to do it well. THe car will look a little dull after a claying, but the polish will bring the shine back out.
Keep in mind that a single stage enamel will never shine the way a base clear would. So be happy with what you get...

with the single stage white you should be able to polish it so well you cant look directly at it without going blind. trust meYour signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.
