Riccardo Clay from eShine is probably the best clay in the world for light to medium level jobs. It's banned in the US due to a copyright infringement (there is only one clay manufacturer in the US, they sued the makers of Riccardo and won). For US clays Clay Magic Blue or Pinnacle Poly is probably best; but neither are near as good as Riccardo.

I use mothers. Maybe if the weather warms up this weeekend, I can give it a final claybar and wax before winter.

Hey guys,

Thanks for all the feedback. I ended up going with Ricardo's Clay. Just got my shipment detailing supplies the other day. Hopefully I can squeeze one 1 more detail before the snow comes.

I used the Megular last weekend. First time I've used a clay bar so I can't really compare, but I was impressed with how the finish looked afterwards.

^+1 to eshine - Big'ups to Chris Pace and his crew!

Started with Mother's back in the day, then progressed to Wolfgang (thanks to my eshine experience) and now I'm onto Pinnacle.

I would have to say I really like Wolfgang, just for overall consistency and usage. The only drawback I would have to say is that Wolfgang is REALLY sticky, so after rubbing it on the paint (with the spray) your fingers get really pressed into the bar and it's a pain to peel off your fingers (feels like I'm losing layers of skin). Pinnacle is ok. I switched from Wolfgang to PInnacle to try some new products out but I find that the bar is a little less 'chunky' and loses it's consistency quicker. I naturally cut my clay bars into pieces, so it's not a total waste, but that's just my two cents on my experience with these.

For November at eShine it is free shipping on orders over $100.

So I just ran out of Wheelwax (which was great and I have been using it for 3 years), but I thought I would give Poorboys a try.

So I ordered some Poorboys Wheel Sealant, Riccardo Clay, a few Cookie Monster MF towels, and a couple of the large Dehydrator Drying towels.
