Since the dissapearance of the beloved "Yellow" clay, what have others been using in replace of.
The last of my yellow clay will be gone soon and I was wondering what others have been using as a replacement.

Thanks

Never used any yellow clay.

I've used blue and red both from automagic. I've seen white but never used it either.

You should try the automagic blue a try.
 
I too, am looking for a clay now. My last bar fell on the ground. I spent an hour cutting it up, slicing it, and what not......lol Tried saving it.....It was useless. Time to lower the flags.......
 
I have found the VW clay is nice. Its alot like everyother grey clay. So my votes on it until the yellow stuff comes back (ohh how i miss thee)
 
Good question J! I'm still hoarding some of that wonderful old yellow Erazer manufactured clay for my own personal use, but I'd like to be able to have another brand/model to recommend to other people.
 
Considering the AutoInt 3 Step system. Clay is really for Overspray. Who else has Plastic/Elastic Clay? I think Sonus/Pinnacle do.
 
I've never preferred the yellow clay, honestly. I use the AutoMagic Blue, and before that a Japanese company version of the same stuff (grey). It's all expensive.
 
I still have some that I got from Steve at PB

I also get some from my local supplier....gray in color, that is real good for over-spray removal and the likes of that
 
I have some of PB yellow stuff left.. but his grey stuff is just a step behind..

I have the pinn clay It''s ust not enought when your doing a car that has never been clayed before.. too mild for me.

it seamed to remove everything without any marring, i molded very well and it did not crubble when wer (like the current clay) also it was a little thougher so it didnt feel the same. it was a pleasure to work with. the clay we have now dosent even come close to the yellow stuff
 
So, if, hypothetically, someone had some of this miraculous stuff, what would the going rate be?
And, how can you tell what you have vs. the yellow Mothers clay (which I've read is not the same stuff? :hmmm: )

You said the US, what about Canada are they permitted to sell the Erazer clay?

It's a ban on selling any form of automotive clay that resembles AutoWax's patented "design". They basically hold the rights to sell and manufacture Clay from what I understand.

Considering the already high price point for Clay, it's merely just for the ease of use and comfort. It isn't miraculous to a point I'd pay more than $5 for regular clay. I'd save it and use it for those special vehicles. Mother's clay is alot smaller, and last time I remember wasn't as easy to mold. For example, if you were to bend the big block, you wouldn't see a hint of the crumbly texture on the sides. Almost I guess like Taffy or Soft Gum.

I think I've used that version, except it's Sonus. Then again it's all the same, just different sizes, weight, aggressiveness, and color

I miss Erazer :cool:
 
I still have 3 unopened PB's I purchased back when he had a special running. I also still have a bar (or two) of Mother's yellow bars. And 1 unopened ClayMagic package and one large bar of red ClayMagic. Plus several other bars in various stages of use. So I'm set for now, but as someone mentioned, I'm not set to last to 2013.

Calgary, what is the story on the VW clay? Can I assume that would be VolksWagen? I haven't seen that offering at my local dealership.

Re: crumbling problems with Mother's clay, I haven't experiened that over the 1/2 dozen or so bars I've been through.

Re: ClayMagic, the blue bar, it works fine, though not my favorite preferring the Mother's clay (and likely PB's).
