Clay Bar Lubricant Substitute

Most clay bar lubes are synthetic and will work on every surface and color car that you want.

Clay bar lubricant substitute.

This is a lubricant that s specifically formulated to increase the lubricity of your car and reduce friction from the clay bar. It s not much so it becomes a good bang for the buck. So i bought meguiar s smooth surface clay kit which contains 473ml quik detailer inside the box and also purchased a 650ml bottle of meguiar s ultimate quik detailer because i know one bottle of 473ml is not enough. The most obvious option would be clay lube.

If you drop the autoscrub towel on the ground no big deal just rinse it off. Add three to five drops and that s it of liquid dishwashing detergent. The autoscrub towel is a clay bar alternative that consists of a special rubber impregnated towel. Much easier and more economical than throwing away a dropped clay bar.

Dilution ratio is on the bottle. So i ended up using both bottles of quik detailer when i clayed my gti. These companies also happen to sell specific clay bar lubricants as well they claim the soap will degrade the clay bar. Fill up the rest of the bottle with distilled water.

Making a wet and smooth surface perfect for claying. You can use blackfire wet diamond rinseless wash or optimum onr as a clay lubricant. Add 4 oz of rubbing alcohol to a cleaner 1 quart spray bottle. Certain product manufacturers recommend against this but remember what i said about taking their motives into consideration.

You simply apply some lubricant and wipe the surface with the autoscrub towel. The one that i use is dp no rinse. You have your very own clay bar lubricant. Substitute for clay bar lubricant.

Most of the time i ll just use the leftover soapy water from washing the car.
