Gliptone Clay Bar

[Charlie Matco]

Hey y'all, I want to share what a choice find I had with the Gliptone clay bar. Compared to other clay products I have used (four now) this Gliptone brand is the best and the price seems best to boot.

I got it direct through Amazon at Amazon.com: Gliptone Body Bar Spray and Clay System -- Step 1: Automotive

If yer interested, y'all can see my review here: Autopia Review: Detailing Clay: Gliptone Body Bar Spray and Clay System

I don't know about the old school products, cuz I wasn't detailing my own cars then, but my pal swears it the same as an elastic clay (dunno what that means) he has. All I know is this thing worked wonders on my old truck this weekend.

Gliptone is a Northeast thing. They have so so products. They are everywhere by me. I haven't tried their clay though.

I see it is sold by Autobarn on that Amazon link. That place has very good pricing on car care stuff and free shipping over $50.00. They sell the cheapo stuff up to P21s and Zymol.

Yes. Autobarn was who delivered it.

I have allot of Gliptone products. Most of them are relegated to back-up products or get used in places that I wouldn't want to waste my expensive stuff. There leather care products are among some of the best I've ever used though.
I also like their clay. It's a bit of a different texture than the other stuff I've used and it seems to do a really good job of pulling out contaminants. My only complaint is that if you don't use allot of lube with it, it sticks to the body a little more than the other brands I've used. Overall, its a good product and if you can get it cheap, its worth it. The Streetrod Store in West Berlin, NJ is the cheapest place to get Gliptone products that I've found.

i agree the clay is firm and i think thats what i like, cuz it does not mush out.

i did not use the lube supplied cuz it was not enuf for my truck. i used a bucket of wash water and a sponge and had no stick issues at all.
