Will any old clay do?

[Darren S]

....or are some better than others?

I've used Meg's clay in the past. But are there are superior ones or better value ones?

Cheers,

it depends what the car needs ie an aggressive clay , a mild clay or something like megs quick clay. There isnt a ''best'' clay though

 

[Darren S]

Cheers Paul!

The Megs stuff has done me ok in the past. I guess I'll stick with that then.

I like the Megs clay.

 

[Aluco]

I prefer Sonus but its all similar.

 

[JD]

It's all very similar, except for how harsh they are. Megs Quick clay is perfectly acceptable and very easy to use. However, there are several that are better at their job than others.

 

[Tigger]

Down to personal preference, like a lot of other things

 

[Craigus]

Would it not always be better to use an aggressive one then, to make the job easier? I presume there is no risk of damage or anything with an aggressive clay?

There's a greater chance of inflicting marring with aggressive clay IIRC.

I've only used Sonus green clay so far, more than impressed with, although I may use Bilt Hamber clay next time as i've heard good things about it.

 

[JD]

As Gex has said, the harsher the clay, the more marks are inflicted in the paint work. You must always polish after claying. Harsher claying will require more correction.

 

[Tigger]

^ AMEN to that!

Green clay? I loved that dude

 

[JD]

Lol, he was a little legend, but thought he was orange?

 

[JD]

Interesting!

 

[Peperami]

OMG! Too good a colour match to be a coincidence.

 

[Tigger]

7Mat should be ashamed of himself :nono:

 

[JD]

Can't believe him, packaging up a star like that and selling it on for a bit of cash

 

[Darren S]

More than a perfect way to deal with Morph, imo.

Both him and that grey-morph-gimp were fecking annoying. I wish Tony Hart had gone postal on their asses.
