MINI COOPER :: North American Motoring - my first impression of Clarity..........it is awful

My first impression of Clarty: it is awful good!.

I bought the Clarity bundle during the winter which is prima's glass cleaner, Clarity, with their microfiber glass cleaning cloth and had not had a chance to use it until this weekend...the stuff is great!!...cleans quickly with no streaking at all and no strong windex smell...works even better than Stoner's....the glass cloth runs slipperyly along the window so it is user friendly...when this runs out, I will be buying a gallon of the stuff....nice product!

You had me worried with the title! Don't do that to me!

Clarity does rock! I love the stuff!

Sheesh I saw that thread title & was coming in here to ask if you were high on wacky weed or something

ARTSJCW · #5 05-07-2007, 02:50 PM

Your title had me worried. I met Heather this weekend at the Dragon she is as nice in person as on the phone and on line. Love the clarity and the cloth as well as the Nero.... Still have yet to use the rest but one thing is for certain. Clarity is the bomb!

Skuzzy · #6 05-07-2007, 03:51 PM

Ok,...fine.....I just ordered a Clarity kit (16oz bottle + towel) and a gallon of it. See what you made me do!!!

A tub of Soveran, and some Wolfgang Paint Sealant and OctaneGuy's BlackWow... OMG!!!!!

AND I DUNT(TM) HAVE A MINI YET!!!!! ARRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!

mini_dreams · #7 05-07-2007, 03:59 PM

yeah, i almost had a heart attack... i thought "what could be wrong with clarity, other than its awesomeness?"

i love the stuff and bought more along with another MF glass cloth at the Dragon. it was great to meet Heather too!

Ahh Skuzzy you will need the gallon I assure because...
after you clean the MINI windows you will get the uncontrollable urge to clean every mirror & glass surface in your house with Clarity & then you will run around like a crazy person throwing

all your Windex bottles in the trash because you just can't stand the thought of them being under the same roof as your Clarity anymore
or was it just me that did that

i thought umberto wanted to get kicked in the butt (by his hot wife).

rosmakloma · #11 05-07-2007, 05:57 PM

...so along with all of these different Prima products that everyone loves - is there an issue with washing all of your detailing/drying towels together?

.

**BlimeyCabrio** · #12 05-07-2007, 07:40 PM

Others may differ - but I throw ALL my MF towels (Monster Fluffy, Platinum, Waffle Weave, cheap waffles, econo MF's from BJ's, glass cloths) in together to wash and dry with normal detergent and no softener. Works fine for me, no issues so far. Been doing it for months now.

kenchan · #13 05-07-2007, 08:39 PM

i separate my cloth towels from MF towels, but other then that, i even
wash my MF wash mitt in the same cycle (after rinsing it well prior to
the wash).

but we all learned from skitelluride not to mix colors with whites.

**BlimeyCabrio** · #14 05-07-2007, 09:08 PM

What's a cloth towel?

I don't do that old skool stuff anymore.

I've even switched to DP Monster Fluffer Boxer Briefs.

UsCoops · #15 05-07-2007, 10:25 PM

I throw them all in together, and for good measure run 'em through the wash cycle twice just to be sure all dem little dirts are gone. I even

throw 'em in the dryer, and they're holding up great!

...and oh yeah, Clarity ROCKS! My gallon is on it's way, it's so easy it's addicting!

oh, some people mod cars in their garage and use shop towels to
clean hands and tools.

Skuzzy · #17 05-08-2007, 05:45 AM

I was going to say. No way would I use an MF towel on grease or oil, or my tires, or my wheels, or my calipers, or the place behind the rear bumper which catches so much road crud.

Lot's of places I still use terry cotton towels. My rule is, if it might leave a stain, then use cotton.

bamatt, I have never used Windex or any ammonia based glass cleaner on my cars. I used to make my own window cleaner years ago, using vinegar and ionized water. Been using Armor-all's glass cleaner, which works better than I would have expected.

But then you guys have to go and talk about how great this sstuff is, combined with talking about what a babe Heather is, well, I just have to support them now. ARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!! I am such a sucker for a pretty face!!! And it dunt(tm) hurt it also cleans well!!

**BlimeyCabrio** · #18 05-08-2007, 06:05 AM

We're OT - but I use rags-in-a-box for nasty, nasty stuff and toss'em. And I have a zillion cheap small MF towels (really rags) from BJ's that I buy 20 to the bundle... I use those for wheels, trim, greasy nasty stuff, engine bay, etc. They wash up just fine. When they stain a bit I don't care.

kenchan · #19 05-08-2007, 06:19 AM

for nasty areas i use paper towels with lots of QD.

then follow up
with a quick wipe of either Hydro or SprayOn wax on cotton towels.
