What is it for? And does it take the piss doing it?

you now when you rub your hand down you paint work and it feels slightly rought not smooth like fresh paint, mine was like that at the bottom of the front wings the worse and basically slightly rought on the whole of the lower car ie middle of door downwards. Its all inground dirt apparently so the clay removes it all and makes the paint smooth as silk, it was unbelievable the difference it really was, infact i'd probably go as far as to say its the best Ł25 notes i've spent in a long time

It is hard work but the finnish it gives is awsome

The difference in the feel of the paintwork is amazing when you do a before and after touch test. The clay bar even improves things after t'cutting. It works by 'pulling' the impurities (specks of dirt, rust particles etc) out of the paint. Well worth the effort if you're into concours preparation of your car.
