Havent used one before but it looks rather rediculous.

I`m very skeptical also, Claying is not something I want to do with a machine. :stupid

I like to be able to feel the clay working when I`m using it and that would be lost with a machine.

I saw one at a local detail supplier in the discount rack (go figure).....they look like a waste of money and clay....you want to feel the clay on the painted areas this will not allow you.

That thing`s dangerous, if you don`t stop every couple of seconds the clay will fill up with contaminants and mar the crap out of your paint. You also can`t tell if the lube has evaporated so you`ll either waste clay lube or leave behind sticking clay. The worst part is that if you get a piece of actual grit in the clay you`ll scratch the paint really badly, the kind of scratches that it`s hard to get out with a rotary.

This has been discussed here many many times! And a lot of us are very skeptical about its use. If I remember correctly awd330(Marj) has used one. And while she said it works well you are putting yourself at risk for lots and lots of damage!

On a side note! I would assume....that if you have a car that you have just clayed and wanted to make a SECOND pass this might not be a bad Idea! however I think the results vs risk are not worth it! Ill stick to claying by hand!
