Just wondering if anyone has recently tried the Clear Kote fine grade clay bar? And can you tell me how well it performs? Does it work just as well as the blue Clay Magic bar does? I'll be using the clay for cars that are not very well maintained, so I need something somewhat aggressive, but not super aggressive like the Meg's red bar, for example.
 
I bought it when i just started detailing in early 08, it works fine (haven't used clay magic). My only problem with it is that it doesn't fold or "knead" over very well. It likes to crack and break off. The only other clay i have used besides the clearkote was the meguiar's clay that comes in a kit from your local autoparts store. I much preferred it to the Klearkote.



DI has klearkote on sale, but if it were me i'd probably try out the DI brand clay instead. Or even better and get the autogeek VIP special this week and get a pound of pinnacle clay for $40( 1lb = 450 gram).
 
Thanks Impulse. I saw that AG has the pinnacle ultra poly clay on sale on the VIP special, but I am concerned that the Pinnacle clay is too ultra fine, as in, it's for cars that have had the finished well taken care of, and is not really for cars that possibly have never been clayed at all before. I think it won't be as aggressive as I want it to be, and it will be too soft. But thanks for the info on the Clearkote clay. Souds like I'm better off getting the clay magic blue from AZ.
