About to go pick one up along with some oil and car wash. Good to hear positive feedback about it. How much did you get yours for?

the mothers one like 16.00 but the meguires one is 9.00 at oreillys the only difference is the mothers has a cleaner wax that comes with it and the meguires doesn't. my freind that stays over at my house all the time is doing his R as we speak so both of our cars will have had it done today but he is using the meguires one. can't really tell any diff between the two but he had to provide his own wax. it makes it clearer looking in the after affect. but it is smooth as glass when your done

Clay bar is the best...nothing beats nice and smooth paint.

I usually clay bar my car about 2 times per year.

Claybar is amazing.

I wash/claybar/waxed my car in the late afternoon and the light was low when I finished so I didn't really notice a difference. The next morning, the difference was amazing! Even my non-car guy friends said, "****, that looks like a brand new car." It's great stuff!


Why are car detailing products scented though? I feel like I'm in the tropics when I put detailing stuff on! I don't need my paint to smell good; I just need my car to look good!
