I've never clayed a car, seen clay cloths and now this clay mit this week.

 

Wondered if anyone has given them a go and their feedback. wondered how it compares to a 'proper' clay bar.

Also thought on if / why its better for a novice.

 

For a novice may be worth a go?

 

Cheers

Kevin.

I'd try one... 

But it's probably not the same as actual claying.  

Reserved one for collection

I like trying new stuff. 

Agreed, I'm in Bradford today, may as well give it a whirl.

Ordered for pickup too.

Not the same clay cloth you refer to, but an interesting thread on a more expensive one here.

Used mine yesterday on Alan's (AlanR36) bonnet

Very impressed...works well with Car shampoo and warm water

Far easier and quicker than a clay bar and zero marring!!

Just as effective too

Worth getting

Prepare to be surprised

Good surprised?

Yes

I've just been reading some reviews on a product like this and a number of things were written that I don't understand. Perhaps you could help...

1. What exactly is `marring`?

2. What is the `PCW` Stage?

3. The cloth was `lubricated (or rather the car was) with `ONR`. What is that?

Many thanks

Mike.

Liked the way you used it on Alan's R36 and not your Vrs  " Good thinking Batman "     :yes:

Mine didn't need it Andy

Was going to try BH clay bar soon, but these seem to be quite a good idea (http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=330602) and well received.

They also seem more 'novice friendly' to use.

Cheers for feedback. As Chris gives the thumbs up we're away!

Marring - its when you can see faint (sometimes very faint) marks in the paint, can look like its been sanded, this can be caused by claying, applying wax, drying etc

 

So as such everything can cause marring. Its why I prefer not to just clay (and even worse in cold weather) but clay and polish via DA, rotary etc

 

Some paints marr easier than others, some show it more than others.

 

Optimum No Rinse (ONR) is a system for washing without water. A VERY good product. Can be used for claying as the lubrication is fantastic.

 

Will be buying a mitt to see what its like against the ADS cloth.

Thank you so much, Mozzie. Always very grateful for advice.

Do you have any idea what was meant in the review by being able to miss out the `PCW stage` of the washing procedure?

Regards

Mike.

Which review so I can read it.

Here:

I've just read it again (the review) and I realise it should be `PWC` not `PCW`. Sorry about that. I wonder if the `PW` part of it could be something to do with `Pressure Wash` 

It says in the article:

Pre Wax Cleanser!

Happy to help

Now I feel rather stupid!

Thanks for putting me right.

Regards

Mike.

Don't know if its because I'm set in my ways but I really like using an actual clay, mainly so I can clearly see what is coming off into the clay.  However, this product does look pretty awesome.

Got mine today, nice day so may give the Audi a wipe.
