Will be almost the same. AG sucks tho.
i did my old mans focus with auto glym clay bar and was very impressed by the results
I did my Cav on saturday, that is one big car to clay bar.
To be honest, the Autoglym stuff was 100 times better that i expected. It's as smooth as a babys ar$e.
Pretty much my opinion of Megs stuff. Maybe the Megs stuff isnt the cheapest at £20 but it does come with detailer, more fool anyone that wastes that on claying!Quote:

It lifts air borne contaminants from the paint...
What that means is, when you really think you have washed & scrubbed your paint & dried it, its nowhere near as smooth as it could be if you'd clayed it. Once clayed you will get a far better finish from polishing & waxing. Its very satisfying to use, basically like rubbing your car over with Blu-tac. It makes your paint feel like stroking a sheepskin rug.
I like stroking sheep :)Quote:

To help some of you maybe decide which to buy/or not, Auto Express tested a few clay bars out. CLICKYfrom2008
I use car shampoo and water as lube for the clay
same as, a really dilute shampoo solution in an old trigger spray bottle. I use it when machine polishing aswell.Quote:

im got a ag clay bar when i worked as a valeter was imprssed with it but i ended up doing a mates bmw with it
I rate all the AG stuff but heard meguiars is good too
yea mg is good stuff the auto glym bumper gel is sh*t though lol
some shampoos can break the clay
for clay, look at megiuars detailer range, bilt hamber or dodo juice
best not to use water either, its not as 'slippery', a quick detailer or a clay lube will be better
