Reviewer's Comments

As stated before, this needs to be used with water. I tried putting it on dry, and it was VERY difficult. I recommend putting it on wet on a small area and rinse, rinse, rinse, before it dries and moving on to the next area.

Definitely works, even after washing the car very well prior to using the liquid clay, tons of dirt and contaminents were coming off, the rinsing water was brown.

Poor design for the liquid clay bottle, VERY slippery when wet. Before shaking up the bottle, it is pretty cool to see the three different layers of chemicals in the bottle, A+ for coolness effect. Easy to tell if you didn't shake it up well enough.

A great prep for the next step (the clay bar). I would say it got off 60% of the contaminents, so this is not a stand alone product and has to be followed up with a clay bar. Would be good for a touch up on an already well prepped surface.

FYI: I used this on a 5 year old fleet car that had never seen clay, polish, wax, or anything besides an automatic car wash or a rare dealership wash. So considering the 5 year layer of filth I had to remove, this worked pretty good.
