Has anyone tried out this product yet? I have been reading on it and seems like a good idea. Just wanted to know if anyone else has seen or tried it.

The detail shops use them up here... it seemed to help get rid of tar and tree sap pretty well, but it is still an abrasive (as far as I can tell) so i wouldn't use it every time. Just enough to get the paint back in shape, them do the normal maintenance waxing and stuff.

Definitely I'd wash the car twice to make sure there is no surface dirt.

I use the Mother's clay bar before I wax and it works great. It is not as abrasive as pre-wax cleaners, in fact it doesn't seem abrasive at all. It's strange how it works you have to use to believe it, definitely give it a try.

The bars seem to last forever, so the cost really isn't that much.

I tried it before I waxed. I had about the same result as when I did the 3-step Meguire's system.
