I spent all evening. (And I mean ALL EVENING, as it is now 3:52 AM and I started at 5 PM yesterday.) Washing and claying my mothers new Dodge Stratus.
I took my sweet time, did a little work on the car, did laundry, more car work, did a few other things. I like walking away from the car every little bit just to use new muscles and give my car muscles a break.
Anyway. I had a bottle and a half of the Mothers Clay lube stuff I wanted to get rid of now that my 3 boxes of Meg's stuff came in. So I used the Mother's kits up. I clayed the paint, chrome, windows, plastic and heck even think I clayed the antenna and the wheels and possibly even some of the rubber trim. I was a claying fool I tell ya.
Needless to say the 1 & 1/2 bottles of lube ran out right there toward the end of this claying Extravaganza. I did not want to break into the Megs boxes yet and I have been going through so much Speed Detailer lately I did not want to hit that stash up either.
I remember seeing a few threads from others about alternative clay lubes. For Examlple, Putting a little NXT soap in a sprayer then filling with water. I think someone else mentioned using dishwater and water in a sprayer.
I went the NXT soap & water combo for the little bit I had to finish up. Worked OK
Anyway, while I had it on my mind I thought it might be handy to dedicate a thread to this.
What alternative clay lubes have you used and when you used it did you get any negative results from it's use or did you come up with any unexpectaed results?
