Has anyone used this product with his or her PC? I love the results I get from claying by hand and I was wondering if I use a this applicator with the speed of my PC how the results would be. Would this be a good investment?

I would probably not reccomend it. I can imagine that if something had grit in your clay and then you buff it with the pc the results could be disasterous. my $0.02

I agree with Greg, all it takes is one small piece of grit to get caught in the clay and will do more damage than good.
I like to feel if there is any drag as I am claying, this way I know that there is enough lube
It would take me longer because I clay as I wash.

I agree with the above. Claying is something that you need to do by hand to allow you to have a "feel" for the clay. It`s one process that I completely disagree with trying to use a machine get it done. Clay by hand!!

Thanx for your help. You are so right Jay "all it takes is one small piece of grit to get caught in the clay " I`m not even going to give it a try.

the clay bar is gonna pick-up grit & crap by virtue of being what it is .... a clay bar. The surface of the clay bar that picks up garbage is going to continue to work against the surface of your car until it`s folded to present a fresh clean surface.
I prefer manual claying `cause I can feel when the surface is clean and I can hear when the clay is picking up junk.
