    The AG HD wax is a great wax Gaz and will last you ages. Had mine over 2 years now and still got about 4/5s left. Good on Bellones after they have been polished

      The decontaminate with the mitt is only a bi-annual process. After use, rinse with clean water, allow to dry naturally then when fully dry, put back into the bag it came in to ensure the clay part of mitt does not get dirty whilst being stored until next use.

      RabidRacoon, learning a lot of stuff reading on here from people like yourself, do u need anythink to use with this mitt? Read other things on here about claying and they use with lubricants?. And do you notice a real benefit of using something like this clay mitt before using SRP and sealer.
      Thanks for any advice

        Evening Darren.

        Have you read this:

        http://www.ds3club.co.uk/showthread.php?t=9252
        New Farecla G3 Body Prep Clay Mitt review

        where I used a shampoo as a lube with the mitt. A lot easier imo than a detailing spray.

        A big benefit is made by having noticeably cleaner, fresher paintwork to apply the polish and LSP to.

                My self control is going well at the moment. Resisted the urge so far.

                    Very good idea. I have started leaving my Costco card at home now for the same reason.

                        Nice shine. How did you find the clay mitt?

                          I went out an bought a clay bar mitt (recommendations of Rabid) - washed our car the other day and used it for the first time - well impressed with it, its pulled every little bit of contamination off the lower body of the car an t looks as good now as it did when we first collected her - another fine purchase and another great recommendation - would i recommend these clay bar mitts = without a shadow of a doubt !

                            Thanks for that Angel-Eyes. I use and test a lot of different products, some expensive, some very cheap. I will only recommend something dependent on if it works easily and efficiently. If that product costs a pound then it costs a pound. If like the recent Wheel Woolies test and recommend it costs £40 then so be it.
                            I want everyone to look after their expensive cars and if that's by purchasing certain products or using little hints and tips I offer then fantastic. Knowledge is power.
                            No sponges or wash brushes, no chamois or drying blades, no garage service/courtesy wash, two buckets, grit guards etc etc.

                              I like it a lot ! Very easy to use and works very well. I done the test you told me to do with the sandwich bag. After the clay mitt it felt like a mirror
