Detailer’s Clay vs. Decontamination

All those yellow brick sponges are the same. I guess it boils down to the application and what you're doing and for who. Dealers/OEM usually only pay for the removal of the contaminants, unless surface leveling is required. Keep in mind that you're doing a good pre-ABC wash and the dirt is removed from the surface which dramatically makes the sponge less damaging. Any marring that is visable only requires super light polishing to remove.
 
The ValuGard Insect Pad is not even close to that sponge.

The insect pad is a white, soft, pliable, thin and will not scar the surface.

Don't know.

They come from a fellow down in North Carolina, sent Tim a few samples several years back.

We tested them first as a bug removal pad as that what the guy said they were good for.

Very impressed with how they worked but did not consider them for using with the B product for a couple of years.

One day, Tim tried them with the B and "wow", what a useful pad for working the B and speeding up the process.

The acids in the Iron-X will not be good for the clay, try the ValuGard Insect Pad instead.

Save your self a lot of money and it lasts for car after car.

That's true of all decontamination systems (inc the pH corrected products (IronX, Sonax, Wolf,and etc)) That's the main reason for interest in an open cell sponge
