hello,

 

Car clay bars are difficult to use and now it seem that clay mitts or clay towels are a lot better and easier to use, but did you buy any in Thailand ?

 

Do you know if no brand clay mitts and clay towels are as good as the expensive ones ?

 

I found this:

https://shopee.co.th/search?keyword=clay%20mitt&order=asc&page=0&sortBy=price

 

Have you tried any ? Thanks for your replies.

Better suited to the Motoring forum.

As I understand it now, a clay bar is the equivalent of a cut and polish, solid instead of a paste. Correct?

I can comprehend using it on older cars with duco to rejuvenate the surface when fading occurs. I can't get my head around why anyone would want to use it on a modern clearcoat.

From the recent topic ... 

After you have washed and dried your car. Rub your hand gently over the surface, if it feels silky smooth then you do not need to clay it.

If it feels a little rough it is in a state where Clay could be used.

 

Contaminates stick to the clear coat ......

The only contaminates I'm concerned with are visible things such as bird poo. My cars get a wash every 3-6 months, I only buy light-colored cars as they don't show the dirt.

I'm fussy about mechanical maintenance of cars, not so fussy I need to feel the surface of them.

I'm amused by guys that wash their cars frequently, all they are doing is assisting corrosion.

No...he is more than likely just taking the <deleted>

Unfortunately no one seems to have the answer to the OP's question ... to stop this topic deteriorating further I'll close it. OP can ask for it to be re-opened if he thinks someone may have the answer ... but unlikely I think
