Default Tutlewax Liquid Clay

okay, i am no expert. I have been using liquid clay bar because of it's ease of use. Anyone hear used it and can tell me if it actually works. my car produces a great shine and is smooth after it's use.

that was my first clay..( yes yes i know..i didn't k now anything back then.. i started experimenting on OTC stuff ) it does work as a cleaner more like a strong detergent. it does remove dirt and old wax but not bonded contaminants..

i've actually used this before in my dark days of creating swirl marks on my car haha. it's actually pretty terrible in terms of being a clay bar. It's more like a light wash

I use that only for the "hard to rearch surface", like the shark fin antenna, etc....
