I used Mother's Clay bar last summer and the results were stunning. You could actually see the grime that you could not get by washing alone.

Well, I used the Liquid Clay Bar a week ago, and although you cannot see the dirt (you hope) you are getting that washing alone misses, I am impressed with the results.

Assuming for a moment that the liquid clay bar is as good as an actual clay bar, the biggest benefit is application. The sponge applicator and the liquid are an absolute breeze to apply.

Just spray off and re-dry (assuming you washed the car before applying). Then wax

Cheers,

Ed

Well I tried the ICE wash it was great good foam and says help eliminate watterspots, then tried the clay bar it was a breeze but I really didn’t notice any difference on my swirls but it did take off some crud, then I iced it and the car looks beautiful but I would like to get the swirls out does any one have any thing they would recommend?

How hard is it to use a traditional clay bar?

me and NGORX8 compared traditional clay bar and turtle wax ice liquid claybar. the results? traditional clay bar had a " smoother feel " to it than the turtle wax, but the turtle wax wasnt bad neither. so i guess if you dont want to deal with traditional clay bar then go for turtle wax.

i agree that the liquid clay bar does not do as nice of a job but for the time spent it was worth every penny!

just used the liquid clay. did a good job cleaning paint, BUT it did not give me that super smooth surface. i'll use a regular clay bar soon to see how that one works...
