I have been concidering claybarring my 3mo old clubman.
I noticed TurtleWax has a new Liquid Claybar product.
Is liquid claybar something that I should, should not concider?

 

I would not. The general consensus is that it doesn't really act as claybar at all. You can get a reasonably priced clay kit with everything you need it in locally (auto supply) - Meguiar's, Mothers, and Clay Magic are all fine and the real thing.

 

While i've never used liquid claybar i can now recommend the Meguiar's Clay Kit. My paint is very smooth now, and shiny!! It's been just about a week since i used it on my MINI.

 

I tried the liquid claybar on one of my cars. it was a waste of time. Buy a Speedshine & Clay kit from Griots garage.

 

claybar the old fashion way

 

Thanks for the advise!
I will buy a claybar and geter done right.

One more question!!!
I read in another post that instead of using a claybar lubricant, it was ok to use clean soapy wash water. What is everyone opinion on this?

 

I have never tried it. I have used Slick and Speedshine. You want to make sure that the surface is super-well lubricated to prevent micro-scratches.

 

Take a look, a week ago, I used Meguires Claybar, polish, and then wax and it came out spectacular. BTW My MCS is going to be 1 year old July 24th! I put 20,889 miles on em!!!!

 

Looks good What kind of wax did you use?
