Recommendations? I have the mothers kit and the clay that came with that, butam needing to make a purchase of some new clay. I have a brand new car and don't really need the abrasivness.

Get the Nanosking Autoscrub...its better then any other claybar out there. Its faster , lasts for atleast 40-50 cars (claybars wont do that), if you drop the Nanoskin Autoscrubber just wash it off and get back to work...claybar drop it...drop it away...its money wasted in my book and it cost the same as a Mothers claybar system...its a no brainer...I wont use a claybar of any make ever again...Period...end of story.

I hear that but it has yet to happen to me. If and when it does I will try to find more of this elusive clay.

Sonüs ultra fine detailing clay. I have a very soft paint and it won't leave it marred.
I would stay away from the rubber type clay when polishing is not in the menu.

shouldn't recommend products that autogeek does not carry
I'd recommend mothers clay, because I love it have always used it and continue to use it also I've never induced any marring with it

I have never dropped my clay. I take my time with claying, but then some times the clay sticks to my hand. :laughing:

Yep, the clay I've used is very sticky on your "scrubbing fingers" and you literally have to peel it off. There's no way you could drop it. Maybe if you only use your finger tips you could drop it.
But you shouldn't use your finger tips, you should hang them over the egde of the clay so you have a flatter pressure

The key is don't get clay lube on the finger side of the clay, and it will adhere to your fingers very well. If you do get the clay lube on the finger side, blow or pat it dry before putting your finger on the clay.

The nanoskin autoscrub and a clay bar work in different ways, by slightly different means. That's why the nanoskin can be sold without infringing the clay bar patents. They both achieve the same end result, so "better" is relative.

I agree...from what I have used..Meg's and Mothers Claybars they dont work nearly as good as the Nanoskin Autoscrubber for the same price. Why pay the same price for something that is quite inferior and you get less useage out of that product like the Nanoskin Autoscubber? I have done side by side comparison tests with the Mothers Claybar and the Nanoskin Autoscrubber and the Nanoskin AC spanked the Mothers Claybar hand down. Just my .02 cents. Im not here to sell anything since I dont sell anything..just putting it out there.
