I used this to remove the "rail dust" off of my new white car. What an easy process, took it all of and smooth as a baby's butt!

I tried that tip someone posted in another thread of using the clay bar with APC as a lube on glass shower doors, it worked great !!!!!!!

Did the color change recently?

My first clay bar was blue. The second looks purple compared to the first.

[Team Adam's]

Blue is our current color/grade of softness.

Jason, you didn't remind them about using the plastic bag test.

Go for it! (It's the coolest test by the way!)

[Nitelord]

I threw several baggies in my detail bag for just such a test. :thumbsup:

We buy a few boxes before car shows - I should start a thread polling peoples' response!

 

It's typically: "Wow, woah, no way, what, and damn!"

[Nitelord]

I showed my wife on her car. I clay'd the left side of the rear hatch and let her feel the difference. That's what I got Wow, no way.

The Bag Test: There’s a simple test that will tell you whether or not you need to clay. Wash and dry your vehicle, put a plastic sandwich bag over your hand and lightly rub your fingertips over the paint. If it feels gritty or rough, your paint is contaminated. Works every time.

The first time I tried it my response was more like Holly @%$! Batman

Jason... before I clay out here the jar says made in USA. the packing in jar the clay is in says made in JAPAN. Why the discrempency? Also on the jar it says after it gets dirty work the clay and it will turn yellow.. was yellow a color of previous blend of clay? I can wait for made in USA clay.. no disrespect to anyone. Daryl

Great question Daryl, and no dis-respect was made! Indeed, our current clay is imported by Auto Magic, the only company currently selling clay in the USA. All companies, Meguiar's, Griot's , ALL of them have no choice but to sell their product. There are different grades, but all are imported by Auto Magic.

 

Our old clay was made in the USA, however, Auto Magic sued everyone out of business that was making clay in the USA.

 

We need to update our labels, as clearly they refer to the yellow, USA made clay that we sold until recently.

 

Thankfully it's not only made in China, as we would have to discontinue selling it!

 

Thanks again for your question Daryl, and look forward to 2012 when the patent in the USA for clay expires, and our American counterparts will again be distributing in our great nation once again!

I order some a while back and got some purple clay, man I didn't like it, it was to hard and not pliable enough, called the Adams people and whined a little and got some blue sent my way, much better, softer and more pliable!

But would prefer the yellow:willy: oh well!

Shine On

True Bluezey, the yellow is BEST! Too bad you don't live in Canada, you can buy it all day long there!

 

2012 is when the patent runs out, and we'll all be able to use the 'good stuff.'

[GXPaycheck]

Anybody ever use a clay sponge? Supposed to do the same thing but easier to keep clean.

[Nitelord]

What's up with the purple clay? It feels much stiffer and harder than the blue bar I have.

 

Is that something I should worry about? I've used it. My concern is whether I'm hurting anything?

You aren't hurting anything but our blue clay is certainly easier to work with.
