Just wondering what the best products in your opinions are?

Get a clay mitt, they're just as good and if you drop them you can rinse them and reuse. Claybars are quite easy to drop.
Then after you've washed your car resoap or snowfoam the car and rub the clay bar across the paint without pressure (they work on number of passes not pressure) then feel the paint with your hand and it should be smooth as glass, or for complete decontamination get a plastic sandwich bag and put your hand inside and feel the paint it's easier to feel the smaller stuff then.  :smiley:

I've had really good results with meguiars clay bar. Some say you need to use a special "clay lubricant" but soapy water works fine.

I tried the clay microfibre cloths but the "clay" side is black which makes any dirt,grit you remove impossible to see
 Good old fashioned clay bar for me. A decent clay bar 80g plus will be enough if not dropped. :smiley:

On the black ones it turns them brown when they're done (well they both go brown but it looks more black on the white)  :happy2: mines only nearly finished after 30 or so badly contaminated cars.
