Easy to use and very effective. Don’t use gloves. Leaves no residue on hands. Will probably get 3-4 applications out of the bar.

This stuff is GREAT! I generally use this as a precursor to wax application, and it easily gets all of the impurities off of the paint and leaves a nice smooth surface to apply the wax/ceramic coat of your choosing. A couple of things to keep in mind:1) Don’t be like Tesla guy, who “followed instructions to the letterâ€. Make sure all other materials are off of your wax bar before use. This should go without saying. If you drop it, it will pick up whatever the ground has to offer, wash it off before continuing.2) Do not go light on the lube. This shouldn’t be a hard process. If it’s sticking, you’re doing it wrong. It should glide across the surface and if it’s not, MORE LUBE. Just because it’s easy doesn’t mean it’s not working. I usually use any sort of speed polish or “spray wax†and get a good result.3) As with anything, test on a SMALL, and INCONSPICUOUS part of your car. NOT your HOOD. I’ve not had a car this doesn’t work wonders on, but that doesn’t mean it will work with every car.4) this is a little weird, but DO NOT like WD40 touch this stuff! lol! I learned the hard way by accident that it will quickly start to break it down, leaving nice blue or yellow clay spots to buff off. It doesn’t hurt anything, but it takes that quick and easy feeling away.All in all this stuff works great when coupled with common sense! Works especially well for those cars that have gone a little too long between washes or waxes and have that extra layer of rain/road/etc on them. Try it out!

I recently had the opportunity to use the Chemical Guys CLY_401 Light Clay Bar in the blue variant (100 g) on my car, and I must say I was quite pleased with the results. As an avid car enthusiast, I've tried my fair share of clay bars, and this one certainly left a positive impression.First and foremost, the size of the clay bar (100 g) is perfect for the average car. It's enough to thoroughly clay the surface without feeling like you're wasting product, but it's not so large that it becomes unwieldy. The blue color indicates that it's a light clay bar, which makes it suitable for vehicles that aren't heavily contaminated with stubborn contaminants.The performance of the CLY_401 clay bar is where it truly shines. It effortlessly removed surface contaminants such as road grime, tar spots, and light oxidation. The clay bar glided smoothly over the paintwork with the help of a good quality lubricant, leaving behind a noticeably smoother and cleaner finish. The paint felt incredibly slick to the touch after the treatment.One of the standout features of this clay bar is its durability. Even after claying an entire car, there was still plenty of clay left for future use. This makes it a cost-effective option for those who want to maintain their vehicles regularly.However, there are a couple of minor drawbacks to consider. Firstly, the clay bar can be a bit on the softer side, which means it may be more prone to tearing or disintegrating if not handled carefully. Secondly, the packaging could be improved to provide better protection for the clay bar during storage and transportation.In conclusion, the Chemical Guys CLY_401 Light Clay Bar in the blue variant is an excellent choice for anyone looking to achieve a smooth and contaminant-free car surface. It's easy to use, delivers impressive results, and offers good value for money due to its durability. Just exercise a little caution when using it to avoid potential issues with tearing. Overall, it's a product I would recommend to fellow car enthusiasts and detailers looking to maintain the beauty of their vehicles.

I have a "retro-bird" (Thunderbird) that, like any vehicle over the years, has collected a series of clear-coat scratches, discoloration, and lack of luster. I've had it detailed by a personal friend multiple times over the past 12 years, but the paint really needed a major "refresh". I began researching several "how to" videos on YouTube for auto finish restoration. I learned how to correct clear-coat scratches (with sandpaper, no less), use rubbing compound to remove discoloration, and to blend the clear-coat finish. Mind you, my lifetime experience ends with wash, wax, and protect.After correcting all of the blemishes, I ordered this Chemical Guys Medium Clay Bar after watching the company's "how-to" video. The detailer made it look easy as he demonstrated tips, techniques, uses, and explanations. I learned that the medium clay is their "go to" for most jobs where the finish is in relatively good shape but never had a clay bar before. I did purchase their lubricant, but.... opted not to use is as I was fortunate enough to be able to clay-bar the Tbird during a day of light rain. (note: rainwater is naturally clean, naturally "soft" leaving no hardwater spots, and offers a continuous lubrication and rinse action).You can really see and feel a difference in the clear-coat. It stripped out all of the rough contaminants, wax, oxidation from the finish. Lastly, I used Turtle Wax hard wax and laid down a heavy coat before buffing out.The end result was car-show competition finish! It took me about 4 days from start to finish, but the clay bar process was actually the easiest, fastest part of the process yielding the highest possible return on results. If you are like me and have never clay-barred a vehicle before, you owe it to yourself to strip the wax off, clay-bar, then use a good hard wax. you won't be disappointed.One last thing - I'd like to pass one of the most important tips the Chemical Guys passed along in the video. DO NOT USE THE WHOLE BAR OF CLAY AT ONCE. What I mean is, cut about 1/4 of the bar off and use that. If you DROP the clay-bar onto the ground, you cannot use it - throw it away immediately. It will instantly pick up and embed any grit from the floor, and will ruin your finish. Just cut another 1/4 of the bar and continue on. Trust me, I dropped two pieces during the process. If it had been the whole bar at once, I would have been sunk.

We moved across country last year and learned they have an irritating way of "resurfacing" the roads here. Normally they'll either fill in potholes, or rip up and replace the road, right? Not here! They just dumped a bunch of asphalt and let the traffic tamp it down for them. The result was a horrific mess of black tar all over my white car! I bought the heavy duty clay bar as I knew it'd be a tough job, and though it did take a lot of work/rubbing, almost everything did come out. There was a small area of tar and yellow road paint in one of the wheel wells that didn't fully come out, but it's still much better. The picture really doesn't do it justice/the difference was far more stark in person, but you get the idea!Edit to add: The comments that complain about the clay smearing on the paint - yes, that can happen, though I found it tended to happen when I was feeling a bit low on luber. It also wipes right off if you just rub the clay bar over it again, so it's really not a big deal!
