Love the video. The format. The added graphics, excellent sound. Great video, Sandro. This towel looks like, as others have said, the Rag Company towel, which was derived from Optimum's Ultra Clay Towel. If similar to those, I absolutely agree with you. Such a great towel. Foaming is good. I also like spraying iron remover (Ferrex) into it directly. Saves me a ton of product that way vs spraying the paint.

Have you tried the Bowden's Own claying rubber? It's got a similar surface, with void spaces, but not actual 'air holes'. It's on a foam backing layer and is just a claying pad essentially. It's definitely not as aggressive as the Waxit Clay Mitt (which is sometimes good for heavy contamination), but leaves much less marring.

Hi Sandro, your videos are exceptional! I learned a lot from watching them as you’re not just a great teacher but also a great video producer. Additionally, your style of presenting and your calm voice are like a chill therapy for me. Thanks for creating this content. I’m not a detailer, i just enjoy taking care of my car. I don’t have a knowledge nor conditions to do polishing. I wonder would you recommend claying to someone like me? Would that produce damage to the car paint which would require polishing? Or is this best to go to someone who does it professionally? Thanks!

@CarCraftAutoDetailing Жыл бұрын

I appreciate that and it’s my pleasure mate. Periodic claying is vital to remove contamination that would otherwise degrade car paint, it also has the advantage of allowing car waxes and sealant to bond more successfully and last longer to protect your car paint better. In most cases clay marring is quite minimal if done correctly and no more visible than light washing swirls or haze. I would say try it yourself, worst case scenario is that it does cause some minor marring that a very fine polishing stage will easily remove - any pro detailer with even minimal polishing experience can address that easily.

Hi Sandro, another great video as usual. Can you please help me? What is the grade of this clay cloth ? My car is coated with artdeshine nano graphene and after a year im experiencing loss of performance of the coating on the roof and bonnet unless i use a topper. According to the aftercare it says to use a fine grade clay bar to remove contaminants. i have tried washing with carpro lift and descale. did a iron decon and water spot remove but didnt restore the hydrophobicity of the coating.

@CarCraftAutoDetailing 7 ай бұрын

Thanks and this cloth isn’t graded - synthetic clay typically isn’t - but if it helps I have found it be the most gentle synthetic clay I’ve ever used in terms of minimising clay marring, but like most clays it will marring to some extent and especially on softer car paints. I’m not sure if you’ve tried working in your iron and water spot removers physically in smaller section by section applications, but it will dramatically increase their effectiveness. Claying a coating isn’t something I’d typically recommend but if the brand recommends it then they hopefully have the first hand knowledge that it’s fine and helpful to do so. Maybe this video will also help: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rL2JrNpe3rGxY3U.htmlsi=GEjoinRLW_OvB18r

Thanks, and claying can cause some micro marring especially if you have a soft paint which is why a light polish is recommended afterwards but also not mandatory. If I couldn’t polish I’d still tend to clay because it is very beneficial to the paints health to remove that contamination which degrades car paint over time. If you don’t have a machine polisher, try using something like Autoglym Super Resin Polish by hand, it’s very easy to use and should clean up any clay marring and improve the look of the paint. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ZpuIfrOeybK6pWQ.html

Still i wonder how bowdens 3 in 1 products will be reviewed as that is supposed to be a iron and wax remover and decon all in the one product? Also sandro just asking i think checkered or weave type clothes are great for cleaning glass and also any glass cleaning towels must be new even if you wash then the soap used still leaves a residue thus you have minor haze in the glass, i remember using metho and newspaper to clean the glass on my VB SLE and also the XB GT?

Thanks, and over spray is always a case by case scenario. The quicker you get to it the better and yes and most synthetic clay can by used with iron removers

I had overspray from CarMax touching up like they always do - I had it 5 years before I clayed it and the Mequiars Bar took it all off without any issues.

How would I take care of the towel, air dry and put it into the case it comes with?

I do a final rinse under running water and just let it hand dry on an indoor drying rack. You can put it back in the case or a clean plastic container.
