Incredible! I'm not an active car detailer, but do like to keep my car clean so after doing some research I discovered clay baring as a step in cleaning the car. I was sceptical but having watched many youtube videos extolling the virtues of claying your car I made the purchase. I bought this one as I also use their wheel cleaner and car shampoo which are both excellent.I was skeptical but I did two non-contact washes, and a contact wash and dry. Then it came time to use the clay. I cut a third of this bar and molded it and using a trigger-spray water bottle set to work. Well, what can I say? I could HEAR the dirt being lifted from the paint as I gently swept the clay back and forth across the water-soaked area I was working on, then the noise disappeared as the paint was left clear before I moved on to the next section. I then wiped each panel dry with a microfibre cloth before moving on to the next panel. The paint was so smooth to the touch it was amazing - no tiny spots of drag at all. I used about two-thirds of the bar for the entirety of a BMW 1 series and each piece was filthy at the end of each panel before I folded it over to use the clean section.Having finished the claying I used a poorboys glaze for lighter paint colours and finally the bilt hamber wax to seal it all off.The car has never looked better. I highly recommend this product and all their products that I've mentioned in this review. It takes an afternoon to clean a car to this level but you'll be delighted with the results (and you only have to clay once or twice a year so I'm led to believe).Set aside some time and enjoy the eventual fruits of your labour.

So far not had the chance to use it fully on car due to weather. However, have used it on front screen. Worked absolutely fine. Screen felt very smooth after compared to how it felt before, which was fine before , BUT definitely felt much much smoother, after using this, like Glass should be.Also using it with just Water was brilliant and so easy, convenienant. I think anything else would have been too much effort and hassle. No point. This was easy to do and worth it for the result on the glass. Cant wait to use it on the whole body once weather is good.

This stuff is good!The good weather finally gave me a chance to use this clay and I'm extremely impressed. I usually 1. hose down my car before 2 .a good shampoo with a sponge, then 3. drying before finally 4. waxing. You use this stuff between 3 and 4 - after you've rinsed off the shampoo, but before the wax.To use, you break off a small piece, flatten it out a bit and then rub on the wet car paint working a small area at a time (I'd worked on areas about the size of a paperback novel). My car looked clean after I'd shampoo'd it but when you first start working on an area with the clay, it feels a bit rough, after 4 or 5 passes however it become much, much smoother (slippery even) and when you look at the clay itself, you can see all the extra dirt it's lifted off. I was amazed by the fact that it even removed tar spots (something I've previously only been able to do with petrol or diesel) without too much effort.To do the job properly then does take a while, but the results are well worth it; after claying the car paint looked fantastic and the wax went on and buffed up much easier than usual. I tend to only do a proper job of waxing my car about once a year, so the extra effort isn't that much and a good wax layer makes washing the car much easier for the rest of the year whilst also providing good protection. From now on, I'll definitely be using this stuff whenever I'm about to wax my car. It makes a huge difference.And for anyone that's read this far, if you're like me a feel a little overwhelmed when stood in front of the multitude of car care products in their shiny packaging on racks upon rack at Halfords, I've narrowed down the choices to some products that I find work excellently, these are:Shampoo - Meguiars all purpose cleaner (works well on the interior too)Wax - Collinite 845 insulator waxand of course this wax.Between these, the simple wash/rinse/clay/wax approach and some elbow grease once a year (+ not having any car accidents!) you can keep a car looking great without the need for a multitude of products in expensive packaging with tempting promises of long lasting results with minimal effort, etc, etc and that cup of tea when you step back to admire your now gleaming motor tastes just that little bit better too!

Magic stuff. This is the first clay bar I've ever used, so nothing to really compare it to, but it worked an absolute treat on my 7 year old car. I cut the bar up into 8 small pieces and just 1 of these was enough to do my Saab 9-5 (a large car). The amount of dirt removed was unbelievable and the paint felt like glass after I'd been over it with this bar. Its so easy to use as well, I bought a little spray bottle (Hozelock Sprayer, 800 ml) to use with the bar and you just spray a bit of water on the surface of the paint and go over with the clay before wiping it dry with a microfibre cloth. No need for any special chemicles like some other bars, normal water does the job. £12 may seem expensive for what looks like a bar of soap but it really does a fantastic job of cleaning all the crud out of the paintwork ready for a nice waxing/polishing. Its hard work, took me an hour or two but the finish it gives was awesome and by cutting the bar up into 8 pieces I'll get a lot of use for my money.I went for the Medium bar which I think was the perfect choice; soft enough to manipulate but firm enough to keep its shape as I worked over the car.

Probably the best clay I’ve used, excellent quality and does the job very well and quickly

Seems to have done an ok job, but found it difficult to use as it's very hard. Even after soaking it in warm water it was still difficult to work with. Meguiars clay bars achieve just as good a result, but with a lot less effort.

Knete für das Auto. Ich habe die knete halbiert und komme damit sehr gut aus. Hab ca. 8 Autos damit abgeknetet und kann sie immer noch benutzen.
