Merry Christmas to all my fellow Autopians.........



Santa brought me some detailing goodies.........(suprised ! )



anyways, i got a container of megs prof. clay ( mild / blue bar )

how does this compare to the white clay available in the kit @ local auto parts stores and target/walmarts ?



just wondering........



hope you guys got some good stuff too !!!
 
I don't know if JuneBug is talking about the current Meg's Smooth Surface (white) clay, or the stuff from 5 or 6 years ago that was frequently hard and cracked, but the Smooth Surface is a very mild clay along the lines of the Sonus green. The Meg's pro blue is a medium clay along the lines of the traditional clays like Clay Magic.



IMO it's not too much of a coincidence that the Meg's Pro clays are blue and red and the Clay Magic medium and aggressive clays are blue and red. YMMV. (Yes, I know, David Fermani, blue Clay Magic is different from any other blue clay...)

Do you really believe it or are you saying this because I brainwashed you into thinking this?
 
I just preemptively added that because I knew you would comment. I believe that they told you that the Clay Magic formula is not sold by them except under the Clay Magic brand...I'm not sure that I believe it's true, but I don't disbelieve it, either. FWIW I just looked at my (unopened) package of the Meg's Pro Mild Clay from perhaps 4 or 5 years ago, and it IS a different color than the Clay Magic Blue (it's a bit more greenish, perhaps that's what the poster in that other thread meant when he referred to a green Meg's pro clay...actually I would call it more of a turquoise...not sure if it has changed due to age, or perhaps I just never put it side-by-side with the CM blue to notice the color difference. My SSR2.5 which is about the same age used to be purple and it's faded to gray now).



It's perfectly plausible that the CM formula is unique to the CM brand, even very small changes to the stuff they make for other people would render it a different formula.
 
The OTC Meg's white clay and the Pro mild blue clay in the plastic container are the same in all respects except for the color, IMO.

No differences that I perceived.

However, I can definitely tell the difference between Zaino's amazing red gummy-like clay and Meg's white and blue clay :).

First person I have ever heard say that. I have used a bunch of both and they are in not even close to the same. The blue has a lot more bite.
 
this is a bit off topic but i figured id ask instead of starting a new thread..

hows the light blue turtle wax ICE clay?
