(1/3) > >>

paulw123:
So i used maguires clay bar kit for ist time at the weekend, turning it over a few times. Lots of black tar came off the paint.
How do you know when the clay bar has had it & needs replacing?

RedRobin:
.
When it stops picking contaminents off and gets so that there's no clean parts when you knead it and fold it over a few times.

Of course, some folks will throw it away earlier than others. I use one small piece at a time (also Meg's).

JP6:
I use a small bit at a time, and only use that small bit once per clay session.

Frodo-anni:
The megs bar and most others is possible to cut into 3. If you ever drop it on the floor, always throw it away never re-use on the paint work. I tend to use one of the pieces once on the car, then keep for doing wheels with later.

What does a clay bar do that a good polish doesn't ?
