Clay

[maggi200]

The lite is worth having as it's more oily and on certain finishes (I find particularly solid reds) it leaves an amazing finish, vertainly deeper than regular lime prime.

I would have been able to add it to a small order that I placed yesterday but that's all finalised and paid for now, so I can't amend it any further I'm afraid :s sorry mate. I'll get you a picture of the brush in a sec. I'll send it to your email address, if that's ok.

I've used the Meguiars clay bars to good effect, they're handy as you can pick them up in Halfords.

I currently got a few Sonus green clay bars as it's a really fine clay so ideal for my cars as they don't get heavily contaminated.

To keep clay soft in colder weather, use two pieces, alternating between them after 1/4 of 1/2 panel.
Put the one not in use in a bucket of clean warm water, resting on a grit guard. So this is soft and mold-able ready for use.

i havent used Clay before.

What exactly is its purpose?

sorry to be very newbie

 

[toni_133]

it removes all contaments on your paint work (sorry about the spelling) like tar, tree crap and also swirls and small marks. Its great stuff

 

[nick7]

may invest in it at some point.

 

[maggi200]

Yes it removes bonded contamintants that washing alone can not remove. Zaino z18 is one of the nicest to use I will maintain, nicer than the yellow poly clay and worth the additional expense IMO

 

[toni_133]

i`ve got this kit

https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/detailing-clay/meguiars-smooth-surface-clay-kit/prod_306.html

works really well and isnt to expensive

 

[maggi200]

Poly clay lifting contaminants

The megs kit isn't bad but tbh BUT it's not the softest and is more expensive than some competitors.

 

[nick7]

just placed a fairly big order so will be a while before i get another i would say

 

[toni_133]

Is it!! I thought it was ok as you got the detailer with it, but it is the only clay i`ve ever bought so i have compared it with any others.

[maggi200]

Yup. Lovely stuff to use! What I used on my car, although it picked up hardly anything thanks to tardis and the very smelly iron x!

 

[toni_133]

oh i might give it a go when my other clay gets to clogged up

 

[Karl]

I only use the clay once then throw it away i never re use it. Are you able to ?

 

[Daveyb133]

i was told by my mate to chuck it, i had a go with it at the weekend because my mate kindly gave me some meguiars stuff. , i was well impressed with the reslults

 

[Karl]

Clay is worth doing but i wouldnt do it to much. Also i fought reusing it wasnt a good idea

 

[Daveyb133]

no, i took one look at it after and chucked it
