Mothers California Gold 3 Clay Bar Complete Kit, 3 80-gram Clay Bars, 07240

First time user and it couldn't have been simpler. It removed all of the baked on tree sap in just a few passes. Thrilled with the results. Great price considering my local shop quoted me $80 for the hood and headlights.

This was not my first experience using this clay kit as I have been using Mother's clay to detail the paint on my cars since I first learned about the advantages of using clay on a car's finish back in the late 1990's. Body and paint shops have been using clay for decades but Mother's brand brought the advantages of clay to remove paint contaminates to the gerneral public and I'm thankful they did. The before and after difference in the feel of the car's finish is amazing. I would never have believed the product claim of removing surface impurities until I tried it for myself. By way of example, I can stand the instant detailer (used to lubricate the clay) on the finish before using the clay and the bottle will stay in place. After using the clay, I can place the bottle in the same location and it won't stay in place. The finish is so smooth that nothing will stay in place, even something as light as a micro-fiber towel just slides off the finish. The clay treatment will not remove surface imperfections like swirl marks or small scratches but it prepares the finish for the next steps in a good paint detail job. I usually follow the clay with a polishing compound and then seal the finish with a ceramic "wax" to protect it from UV rays and the onslaught of chemical and mineral contaminats that are always present in the enviornment. Modern car finishes are very tough but if you want them to last its still important to clean and protect them every year or so. My car is a 2009 and is not stored in a garage but it still looks and feels almost showroom new thanks, in part, to this great product.

My car recently went to the repair shop because it was getting fixed after i hit a rock and dented my front bumper. After i got it back my car paint felt to rough and like sandpaper. I dont know what happened but most likely my car got oversprayed from the paint shop. My paint felt horrible. I was extremely upset but googling i found this clay car the could possibly help.!! And i was truly shocked at how amazing it worked, my paint felt and looked like the day i got it out the dealership new! 5 stars!!! I clay bar my entire car. But i did need an extra spray lubricant

Mothers makes dependable well priced products. This kit worked decently but it left things lacking. I have a black 2006 Volvo S60R. It has been babied this past year (I've owned it for a month now), but in full sun and up close, you can tell it's almost 12 years old. I did things a bit backwards and waxed it the moment I got it (CarGuys liquid wax), and it shines like hell but the finish was still a bit rough and the amount of metallic in the black sapphire paint actually accentuates instead of hides swirls, scratches, etc. This kit will likely only last you a single venture. The clay bars are very small. The spray bottle pretty much ran out right at the end. To be fair I was working in a do-it-yourself car wash so I could wash before and after and the wind was howling non-stop so that likely 50% of the spray didn't get to lay on the car anyway. But regardless, I wouldn't count on getting two goes from one bottle much less these two tiny bars. The kit was easy to use and comes with an absorbant wiping cloth as well. My only beef with the cloth is the huge Mother's branded tag on it. I will say this made a noticeable difference in the slick/smoothness of the pain but I can still feel some imperfections, I likely needed to start out with a higher grade and work down to finer versions. Still, the beading and gleam after just clay barring and pre-second wash was impressive. It did catch on some of the rougher plastic body kit panels and where there's a deep scratch on one trim panel, but it cleaned up easily. The finish I got after re-waxing after using this kit was noticeably improved, scratches etc still visible but the finish was such a smooth glossy sheen even in cloudy/overcast/darkening light. Considering I find it even harder to take my eyes off my car, I'd say this product is worth it. I'm not 100% satisfied with either Mothers or Meguire's but until I find a kit with a bigger volume of cleaner and larger bars for a similar price, I'll keep buying this twice a year.

This kit has everything you need and super easy to use. Was a little hesitant to use since I have never clayed a car before. Use plenty of spray and lite pressure. Left the car smooth as butter. As I was clawing the hood and front of car, I could feel and hear the clay bar pulling pulling junk off of the paint. Followed up with Mothers wax and the car looks great.

Got the hard water spots off of my car

First time I’ve ever used a clay bar. This kit made it easy. Excellent results. Great price for an all-in-one kit. I will definitely recommend this.

Worked as advertised! Love this product! The directions were great and it was easy to use and I appreciate the positive results.

Ottimo prodotto sia per i risultati che si ottengono, sia per il rapporto qualità-prezzo. Unica nota, lo spray lo trovo un po’ troppo oleoso, generalmente uso della semplice acqua saponata per lubrificare la superficie.

Esta claybar es de buena calidad. Limpia bien y se puede utilizar varias veces.

This complete clay bar kit is the one of best solution to remove all the contaminants. Since my car is white, it had tar marks and insects deposit all over it. If you're detailing your car, I feel this is the best product. Use it with instant detailer and it just removes all the dirty contaminants from your car making the paint smooth as glass to touch. Takes time and effort but surely makes a difference to the paint.

I am an instant fan, works as the package says and leaves the car surface clean and shiny like new. Will purchase again and recommend to anybody wanting to look after their car. I clean my own vehicle so see what industrial fall out can do. This removed mine easily.

Best there is. Great product
