I LIKE TO USE 2 oz OF NXT CAR WASH TO 12oz WATER

IT SEEMS TO WORK BETTER WITH TREE SAP.

If you`re using clay then that probably means you`re also buying polish, glaze, wax and/or sealant, MF towels, etc, etc. Why cheap out on the $6 QD?

Recently I`ve seen the bigger bottles of Meg`s QD at Autozone for like 4 bucks, stock up while it`s cheap.

What recipe? Just use the car wash as a lube, whenever I clay I do it when I wash my car. Works perfectly.

I have been using 3M clay and shampoo for several years with no problems.

I`ve been using NXT car wash as my lube with clay magic. It dosen`t seem to hurt the clay but I always cut it into little peices and throw it away afterwads.

Patrick has been known to use just straight water as clay lube and swears by it. If you`re really despirate, just turn the hose on low and clay away.

I use qew/water mix for my lube. It`s very slippery for claying. Anyone else do this?
