Question 1

Hi. do you use the g3 detailler with this or soap and water or both? if i buy the detailler do i just use that with the mitt?

Accepted Answer

1) Stay away from the detailer. You never get enough lube, plus it sticks on your car a waxy coating (which you probably don't want, given clay mitting it is trying to get everything off it, and you prob use your own wax anyway, afterwards. 2) I first washed the car using a decent amount of their(G3) 'body prep' shampoo. Which is 'supposed' to get rid of all wax coating on the car, 'stripping it down'. Of course I assume you do the two bucket (or more) method etc3) I then 'wash' it again, another bucket with the body prep shampoo in it,  but kind of simultaneously using the normal wash mitt that I use when normally washing the car (and you've just used in step 2s above), and following immediately behind it using the clay mitt. YOu need to use LOADS of shampooed water on both your normal wash mitt and the clay mitt. Also, go on the side of caution and don't press hard at all with the clay mitt. Kind of micro pressure it a few times horizonatally with each pass. It's essential you use LOADS of lube, as stated, so you don't inflict scratches on your car. Have your mitt virtually swimming on shampooed water. Think 'I cannot have too much lube as I'm doing it' and you'll be fine.If you need anymore clarification, feel free to ask again

Question 2

Is it proper for a novice user? I have never used clay bar or clay mitt before...Is it scratch safe? Thank you

Well, I'm a complete novice in that up till I got my new car (well, old car) I used to let the rain wash it. I needed to look after this one with a bit more care and someone told me that it needs to be clayed to get rid of impurities. The actual bars looked too hard so bought this mitt never having used anything before and it was soo easy to use, after a few goes on the paintwork you get into a rhythm and the results are amazing, I was really impressed. Now I think its probably one of my best purchases. Don't think ill bother going to a bar, this does a perfectly good job on its own. In fact an avid 'car cleaner' first turned his nose up and since seeing the results is actually going to get one himself. But honest, you'll be fine! I had no idea what I was doing and soon picked it up.-good luck, Jan

Question 3

Hi can this be used on a brand new car ?

Accepted Answer

Of course, yes it is for decontamination of the paintwork. Even a new car can have some particles on it. Use plenty of soapy water with it.

Question 4

Can I use plain water instead of soapy water? Never done this before so please excuse the question! Tia!

Hi, I'm not a detailing expert, but after watching many Youtube videos, I think water will not be enough of a lubricant on its own. I used snow foam.
