Mothers 07241 California Gold Clay Kit

It seems to happen more and more, but I got this Amazon delivery with pieces missing - one of the three clay bars was missing. I contacted Amazon and they said contact Mothers, which I did. After a couple of minutes, it was discovered that the box was tampered with and returned, and someone took one of the clay bars. Mothers immediately arranged to send me a replacement clay bar - quick and good customer service. I might consider buying directly from Mothers next time as the clay bar treatment I used on my Porsche Cayenne worked wonderfully. The process was simple, the clay bar left no marks and the paint surface was smooth again. I then buffed the car for a super nice, clean and new looking shine. I would highly recommend this product.

Best ever. Used this on my 12 yr old Harley Davidson that has a Deep Pearl Blue Clear coat shine.An it brought out the shine better than NEW.

Loved the value, worked great and the spray smells super nice!

This was my first time claying my vehicle. I will say that it does what it says: I tried it on a small part of my car to test it out, and it certainly smoothes the rough, presumably contaminated surface. You can hear and feel the crunchy layer being lifted away, and the paint is returned to a like-new slickness. The process also seemed to make for a much nicer finish after waxing. Count me as another believer in the power of clay.If I were you, reading this review and wondering if this is the right purchase for your first-time claying (I must have spent several hours Googling and browsing Amazon for info; I know what you're going through), I would want to be told this: Buy a separate clay bar, and use soapy water for lubricant. Use the saved money to buy a nice bottle of car wash.At first I was hesitant to use soapy water instead of the detailer spray that came with it, but after some research I discovered that many professional detailers use soapy water (there are YouTube vids with professionals using soap suds for claying). I even did a test at first, using soapy water on one area and the detail spray on another, and the clay process worked just as well with soap (or auto shampoo, rather). Just be sure the water is very sudsy and constantly applied. I wound up using the Showtime spray to clay about half the car, and I nearly used up the entire bottle. Maybe I used too much, but I only sprayed enough to cover the surface (a 2010 Accord), and with something like this I figure too much lubricant is better than too little. Detailing spray isn't exactly expensive, but using the spray instead of soap could easily result in adding $5-$10 to the task. If it offered better performance over soapy water, that would be one thing, but it doesn't seem to.Before washing the car I tried using the spray alone as a detailer on a lightly dusty surface, and it cleaned well. I wish I had just used soapy water for the entire clay process and saved the detail spray for its original purpose. In that sense, this kit is probably a nice value along with the microfiber cloth (also pretty nice quality). I can't comment on the quality of the clay bar since it's the only one I've used. It was soft and didn't fall apart. I didn't see the huge amount of contaminants on the bar like you see in some customer photos (hardly any, really, but maybe my contaminants were of the transparent sort), but it definitely had an impact on surface smoothness.It was a good learning experience and good value considering everything it comes with. However, in the future I'll buy a separate clay bar. Mothers does sell the bar separately, also, and reviews seem to suggest its quality is competitive.

Amazing - easy to use and worked to get ride of paint overspray.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ este producto es espectacular lo recomiendo 100% me encantó deja la pintura de tu carro excelente

Great product repeat purchase

Works like magic! I live in Chicago and was a victim of the “L-Juice”, which are creosote drippings from the trains for people foolish enough to park under the tracks. It is impossible (or so I thought) to get off. Car wash did nothing and neither did goo-gone, and I didn’t want to use anything harsh to avoid stripping the paint off my car. This lubricant and clay got off the tar with laughably little effort. What could have been a thousand dollar+ issue was rectified in 20 mins and twenty bucks. Before and after pictures show how well it worked, the creosote doesn’t come off with fingernails, dish soap, or goo gone, but rubbed right away with the clay.
