Re: What is your "go to" clay product nowadays?
I still use a Mother's clay bar. It works for me and I'm not having to clay too often.

I bought a blackfire mitt. It's so much faster than clay and I was happy with the results.

Re: What is your "go to" clay product nowadays?
Thanks so much for all the input. I guess I shouldn't be, but I am surprised there isn't a consensus or single product that people seem to be using most. It seems that people are using pretty much a diverse product range.
I'll probably go with a mitt of some kind and thanks to Jayfro for his comments about the impact heat can have on many clay products. I can see where leaving a clay mitt in a hot garage over time might damage the synthetic clay on it. I'll probably find a place inside the house somewhere, maybe the mantle in a glass case. My wife would love that.

Griot's Brilliant Shine disc, and Nanoskin sponges while washing before my annual machine polishing.
Couldn't be easier IMO.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

A few years ago I tried the Nanoskin AutoScrub Wash Mitt and Speedy Prep Sponge. Haven't used anything else since then.

This car didn't have a lot of swirls in it to start with and I certainly didn't want to add any nor add any clay marring.
I used the Pinnacle ULTRA FINE clay and it worked perfect to remove teh black overspray paint without any marring.
I too like the polymerized rubber clay replacement but only when they fit the car, the job and the paint. Kind of the old saying,
The right tool for the job.

So here's what I use depending upon the car and the paint and the problem.
1: Pinnacle ULTRA FINE detailing clay - cars with soft paint, PPF film and vinyl graphics - Just showed this in a new video.
2: Clay towel - most projects except cars with soft paint, PPF film and vinyl graphics - it's simply faster and convenient.
3: Aggressive Clay - Meguiar's or 3M - for tightly bonded overspray paint.
That's my story and I'm
sticking to it. No pun intended.
Who's Clay towel do you use?
