Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Chemical Guys offers a variety of high quality, affordable products. I'm particularly fond of their waxes and microfiber towels. I purchased this kit to get a feel for their clay bars and came away very impressed. The included clay bar is of good size and actually ended up outlasting the lube. It is, as advertised, a light duty clay bar; if your car is heavily contaminated I would suggest moving up to the gray bar. If you are new to clay barring, here are a few quick tips: 1. Wash > Dry > Clay > Wash > Dry > Wax You can of course compound or polish in between the clay and wax, but these are the absolutely necessary steps. 2. Before busting out the clay, put your hand in a brand new Ziploc bag (or whatever brand storage bag you have sitting around) and run it slowly across the surface of your car. This will amplify your sense of touch and give you an idea of where to focus your time. Generally the front of the vehicle has the most contaminants. 3. Spray a chunk of the bar with a little bit of lube to make it more workable and form it into a patty about 1.5 to 2 inches in diameter. Spray each spot with lube before you clay it and spray again if the clay starts to catch. Reform the patty frequently to avoid scratching your paint with the dirt it has accumulated. 4. If you drop the patty on the ground, throw it away. NO EXCEPTIONS.
