Yep I can agree with that.
Fantastic clay. Very popular and unlike almost every other clay bar you only need water. Not quick detailer.

I've only used the 3m clay or a dodo juice clay sponge which I don't rate at all. I've also only ever used soapy water when claying. I'm too tight to buy lube or qd for it lol

Another vote for Bilt Hamber. Great clay and as stated only needs water as a lube so no expensive sprays to buy as well.

Chemical Guys have a few clays, always good quality
plus they do a clay block which i have used on many cars... you just use water or lube, and wash the clay in a bucket every few wipes :O amazing!!!
its cheaper in the long run as you can use it over and over and comes out with just as good as the clay bars

I have BH clay and for what it's worth its a good clay.
With the mitt I use optimum no rinse diluted and sprayed on as a lubricant.
It is exactly as effective as clay bay but you cover 5 times the area at once and less prone to dropping the thing.
Yes I have clayed cars (traditional method) maybe 10times and for me its a PITA hence not endorsing it anymore.
See my two day megs detailing thread, acheived (amongst other things) with a Mitt off ebay
