REVIEW: Meguiar’s Smooth Surface CLAY KIT – 3 YEARS LATER…

I been using my Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit ( https://amzn.to/3BDtYzK ) for about 3 years now. It came with three 80g bars of clay, a bottle of Meguiar’s Quik Detailer spray ( https://amzn.to/3CJv3XT) as lubricant for the clay, and a microfiber cloth. I am on my second bar.

I always use clay to remove stuck brake dust and particles before I use liquid Compound ( https://amzn.to/3nRSbNY ) (if needed), and Polish ( https://amzn.to/3nMhSPG ) my cars for shine, and then add a layer of protective wax ( https://amzn.to/3BE17er ) . I keep the foam pads with my liquid compound polish or wax. I normally clay, polish and wax my car by hand, but recently bought a 6 inch Dual Action Polisher ( https://amzn.to/3EfWFnR ) and love it!

I recently started using ceramic spray wax ( https://amzn.to/3BFoq7Y ) over Carnauba car wax as its much easier to apply and buff and holds for about 6-7 months. I can quickly clay and use ceramic wax to seal if the cars paint isn’t too dirty.

Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit ( https://amzn.to/3BDtYzK ) clay is very good at picking up brake dust and tar off my paint. I normally wash and dry my car first. The clay will pickup lots of particles very quickly that washing your car will not remove.

I use the recommended Meguiar’s Quik Detailer spray ( https://amzn.to/3CJv3XT) as surface lubricant and guide the clay bar over the paint surface. It takes about 30 minutes to clay may car by hand. I clay and wax every 6 months or so, any longer and the particles would take longer to remove.

If you clay bar has dried up in storage, then use Meguiar’s Quik Detailer spray ( https://amzn.to/3CJv3XT) to revive the dry clay bar. Just put it in the plastic storage box, spray a bar and leave it in the box to absorb the liquid. It will hydrate and be pliable again.

My first bar lasted for about 1.5 years, and the only reason for replacing it was that it fell on the floor. I would not want to rub embedded sand and scratch my paint of my car. I am currently on my second bar and its starting to turn gray, from the original white putty color.

Overall I love using Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay ( https://amzn.to/3BDtYzK ) as it works really well and offers great value for the price.
