I will definitly have to do this after this winter is over! Which one should I get. Clay Magic or the one through Zymol?

Anybody used both? I know the Mothers one leaves behind stuff so that one is out!

Pinky, Zaino works, make sure you follow directions. Keep it moist and don't let anything come between clay and car, no dirt or contaminant, it will scratch...good luck..

Zaino is the one, used with Z-7 in a spray bottle as lubricant. Don't let the size fool. It's very effective.

I have not used the Zaino bar, but the Clay Magic bar is great. Far better than Mothers or Zymol.

I agree! Zaino Clay Bar and the Z-7 Spray work great! I have used both and almost everyting else from Zaino. I am very happy with the results and their customer service. I have used the Clay Bar from Mothers and I like the results better from Zaino.

Clay Magic is great!!!
Whatever you do, don't touch the pinnicle clay bars. Those are horrible!!
I may try zaino ones if I do order from them.
If I don't order from them, I don't see any reason to stop using clay magic. They are near perfect in every way.

I used to do auto detailing in College. Wash with clear water. Dry with a P21S drying towel. Your paint is new so go with Klasse Sealant Glaze to start (if it were oxidized I'd go to Klasse All-In-One). Apply Pinnacle Souveran Wax and wipe. Dry two days and reapply wax....polish lightly. Use Luster lace on the exhaust tips and Zymol Bright Wheel Kit on the wheels. You won't be sorry!!

I've used Mother's and Meguiar's clay bars. Both worked great. But I liked Meguiar's much better. Their detailers spray lube is better.
