I would assume that most people without a business are still using clay. I only really see benefit to the prep towels for people that need clay often, otherwise its just not cost effective.

Hate clay, takes too long. Just ordered the speedy prep towel today. I'm hoping I like it.

I know the rubber DA thing that acts as clay is known to mar paint, but is the Speedy Prep towel also considered aggressive?
It seems at least clay is soft and will absorb some contaminates. With the rubber towel and DA pad, don't they just drag on the paint until you rinse it? Where do the contaminates go?

Where do the contaminates go? | claying at some point will marr, so thats why it's always a good idea to polish after (you already knew that). with the DA nanoskin autoscrub, you use it on speed 1-2 just enough to keep the pad moving/spinning to pick up contaminants, instead of using it on higher setting where it would be like polishing which is probably overkill and not needed (higher risk of marring). i have the prep towel and like it, but i've been on the fence on ordering the DA version and another site has $4.99 shipping (orders over $49) and 10% off right now which is tempting... |

When my stockpile of clay (Clay magic Blue, Clay Magic Red, Wolfgang, Pinnacle, and Mothers) runs out I will probably try one of the other products. But that will be ten years from now.
However, if it shows up on BOGO, during a combined 20% off sale with free shipping I will be all over it.

I think I'll just stick with clay. I like the concept better and I'm not lazy when I detail. Just time I'm getting to spend with my car so the time it takes to clay doesn't bother me. If I can do things by hand with great results then that's what I want to do.
