CG's Clay deal

themightytimmah · 06-15-05, 06:32

Chemical Guys is running a clay deal right now - 3 big bars (200gr I think, I've got a set coming monday so I'll know then), and a half gallon of lube for around 55 bucks. For anyone who does a lot of claying, its not a bad deal. Also you can get 6 and a gallon for about 100, if you do some serious production claying.

I've been eyeing this offer:

6 clay for $85.00. I'd never pay for clay lube. I can make my own at a fraction of the cost. FREE: water in a spray bottle.

Even so, that is a great deal for 1200 grams of clay. The cheapest I have found (non-sale) is CM through DetailNet.com for about $18.25/bar shipped to CA. Anyone have a link to reviews? I really like the aggressiveness ofd CM, many are just simply too gentle for a lot of vehicles.

Wouldn't AutoGeek's 4 bar $49.95 deal be better? -> http://www.autogeek.net/pipobapl.html

Those CG clay bars look like someone else's that are 4 oz; if that's the case, my spreadsheet says it's not that great a deal (6 bars for $85), neither is the (Autogeek) 4-3oz bars for $50.

Do you know where we can get good deals on clay bars? I was about to order Autogeek's bars.

Autogeek
$49.95 - (49.95 * .1) = $44.96
$44.96 / 4 = $11.24 per 3oz bar.
$11.24 / 3 = $3.75 per oz

Chemical
$85.00 / 6 = $14.17 per 4oz bar.
$14.17 / 4 = $3.54 per oz

My spreadsheet is in dollars/gram...I consider the Griot's/TOL clay to be different ("ball" type) than the others ("bar" type). The ball type is generally the cheapest. The best price I have seen for bar is here http://www.superiordetailsupplies.co...ge=accessories but I don't know of anyone who has used this. The Optimum Clay is on sale at Autogeek right now for $2.49/oz, otherwise at the Autopia store the Sonus Block is in the same ballpark, and the Perfect Shine and Meg's kits are both on sale, good deals.

I don't see any clay bars on Superior detail's website.

I'd say that TOL's clay is the best deal around. 8oz bar for $15.95

Doesn't Autopia have the clay for like 9 bucks, with a bottle of lube...
