Turtle Wax Liquid Clay - Honda Pilot

dudeman893 · 02-03-2009, 03:06 PM

Wanted to know if anybody has ever used this as of yet? I seen it at walmart... yes I know, but reading on some other forums it seems to do a decent job compared to a clay bar. I have clayed my pilot before, but it sure does take a LONG time and it ruins mostly the whole day. I am going to try this once it gets warm outside... as I live in PA and it is snowing and cold to do it outside and don't have time to clean out my garage...

I'm not talking about the kit, just the liquid clay. I am going to put on FMJ afterwards.

Never used it, but read a review of it, and it's not worth a thing. Mind you, the review comes from a competitors site, but does show a side by side comparison of the two, and I'll stick to regular claying.
Here's a link:

Rather than take the whole day to do the vehicle, I tend to do it in sections. A hood in one shot, quarter panel another time, etc. Since you typically don't need to clay each time you wash/wax, break it up a bit.

Thanks, My friend went out today to purchase it and is going to try it later today... I was not reading reviews off the competitor's site, but off other fourms with pictures after using it.

Let me know what you think. I'd be interested in an impartial review of it. As a test, put a plastic grocery hand between the Pilot and your hand and rub. It's supposed to accentuate any leftover "crap" so you can better feel what's left.
I like a clean car, but my time is very limited as well.

Yeah, no problem.... what was interesting though is the stuff that came off that guys paint and on the clay. I never had that stuff on my car... I get the black dirt but not all of it like that guy had. But when I do it I will do a test and post pic's of the clay side and the liquid clay side.

I guess it all depends on what happens to be in the air at any given time. Mine usually turns black, but during pollen season, I do see some yellow too.
