David, honestly it was years ago I used the blue AM clay. But I have used the Sonüs grey and I prefere the "elastic clay". I have some blue and purple clay, but they are not from AM but I guess one of them is almost the same as AM blue clay. The reason I use the "elastic clay" is beacuse I get them cheaper then AM.

Lucky you!! It will take an act of congress (literally) for us to get it at all.

Maybe one day. The funny thing is that I hear that the Riccardo clay is made here in the US.

That Riccardo stuff is heavenly! Thanks Chris for the tip.

Blue clay magic definitely is some of the better clay available in the US. It's just that the yellow elastic clay is better (imo). It's a shame you can't get it in the US. Silly, really.

I love Riccardo clay. It was a shame I didn't listen to Chris sooner.

If I can get hold of some Riccardo yellow clay do I need to purchase the Riccardo Spray lube?

Sounds like I need a friend in Canada.

Works fine without it .. I'm using it right now with ONR mix

No, like Jesstzn said you don't need it. I normally I just use car wash solution or if I'm not washing the car I'll just grab a QD that is handy (usually Quik Shine). Guess I should start using an ONR mix instead of Quik Shine, it'd be cheaper and I usually keep some mixed up to pre-treat in a garden sprayer.

I prefer the elastic clay hands down, it kneads so much easier and it does feel more sticky then the clay magic from what I remember. Mothers twice has fallen apart when used and I haven't tried Megs. I found a source still selling it a year ago and picked up a few bars for my rides. I'm glad I did too, and you better believe I hold it like my life depends on it. I'm pretty sure if a bar dropped I'd just out right ball like a 12 yr old girl lol.

Yeah, I'm curious how customs would be able to catch it. Especially if it didn't have a label.

I had some with the old Z18 that I had. Don't like the replacement Z18. Crumbled last time I tried to use it.

I agree. Hook a brotha up!

I fear that customs would think it looks like C4 and I would have the FBI at my door. But if its that good compared to clay magic.......then lets risk it.

Rather than buying it, would someone be willing to "trade" for it? PM if you are.
