Re: D114 clay lube
Stick with D155 diluted 1:1. We haven't seriously tested D114 as a clay lube so we aren't currently making a dilution recommendation. There's really no reason why it shouldn't be fine, we just haven't seriously addressed it as a clay lube since our D155 is so popular for this.Michael Stoops

D114 diluted to the "dirty car" ratio 128:1 is all I use for a clay lube and have yet to have any issues. It works great and is way more economical, plus I get to smell it's great smell more often
That dilution ratio is also great for lightly soiled door jambs and engines, and obviously as a waterless wash.

Re: D114 clay lube
Here is what I have done and worked ok on my car.
Soaked nanoskin autoscrub towel in D114 at 1oz to 2 gallon solution and clayed the car while it was still wet.
