I especially like how easy it is to knead and form into shape. Ultimately the biggest weak point is the price, given how little clay you actually get, and it would be price that would put me off buying this clay bar in the future.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8\"]{margin-bottom:20px;font-style:normal;color:#0a1931;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#ffc947;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_b66e3e-e8\"><strong>FAQ<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-faq-schema-items\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>How long will a Meguiar\u2019s clay bar last?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Once a piece of clay is full of contamination, it should be thrown out, also if clay is dropped, it needs to be thrown away. This is why I advise cutting small pieces of clay at a time, so if a piece is dropped, the whole bar is not lost. I use about 50 g of clay on a medium car, so a Meguiar\u2019s bar would only be good for one and a half cars. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Does Meguiar\u2019s clay need a special lubricant?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Meguiar\u2019s do advise using a lubricant, such as their quick detailer. I have used it with ONR and also car shampoo from a wash bucket with good results. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Can Meguiar\u2019s clay bar be used on glass?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Yes, it can be used on glass, which often holds a large amount of embedded contaminants. Claying a windscreen can help reduce wiper judder. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Can a Meguiar\u2019s clay bar be washed?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>No, it should be folded over to reveal a clean surface and thrown out when the clay becomes fully clogged. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Can you use a Meguiar\u2019s clay bar without polishing?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Clay barring induces marring into paint, which can leave the surface looking worse than before, therefore, it is best to only clay if it is possible to polish afterwards. <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_ec1c92-52, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_ec1c92-52[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_ec1c92-52\"]{margin-bottom:20px;font-style:normal;color:#0a1931;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_ec1c92-52 mark, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading_ec1c92-52[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_ec1c92-52\"] mark{font-style:normal;color:#ffc947;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<h2 class=\"kt-adv-heading_ec1c92-52 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading_ec1c92-52\"><strong>Get it Now<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"aawp\">\n\n            \n            \n<div class=\"aawp-product aawp-product--horizontal\"  data-aawp-product-asin=\"B001O7I7JE\" data-aawp-product-id=\"3642\" data-aawp-tracking-id=\"prepmycar00-21\" data-aawp-product-title=\"Meguiar s G1001EU Individual Clay Bar 80g of clay to safely remove surface bonded contaminants such as tar tree sap overspray and industrial fallout\" data-aawp-geotargeting=\"true\" data-aawp-click-tracking=\"title\">\n\n    \n    <div class=\"aawp-product__thumb\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__image-link\"\n           href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B001O7I7JE?tag=prepmycar00-21&#038;linkCode=ogi&#038;th=1&#038;psc=1\" title=\"Meguiar's G1001EU Individual Clay Bar 80g of clay to safely remove surface bonded contaminants such as tar, tree sap, overspray and industrial fallout\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aawp-product__image\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41XnrrUC0FL.jpg\" alt=\"Meguiar's G1001EU Individual Clay Bar 80g of clay to safely remove surface bonded contaminants such as tar, tree sap, overspray and industrial fallout\"  \/>\n        <\/a>\n\n            <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__content\">\n        <a class=\"aawp-product__title\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B001O7I7JE?tag=prepmycar00-21&#038;linkCode=ogi&#038;th=1&#038;psc=1\" title=\"Meguiar's G1001EU Individual Clay Bar 80g of clay to safely remove surface bonded contaminants such as tar, tree sap, overspray and industrial fallout\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\" target=\"_blank\">\n            Meguiar&#8217;s G1001EU Individual Clay Bar 80g of clay to safely remove surface bonded contaminants such as tar, tree sap, overspray and industrial fallout        <\/a>\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__description\">\n            <ul><li>1 x 80 gram replacement clay bar<\/li><li>Features one non-abrasive clay bar<\/li><li>The clay bar safely removes surface bonded contaminants such as tar, tree sap, overspray and industrial fallout<\/li><\/ul>        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n\n    <div class=\"aawp-product__footer\">\n\n        <div class=\"aawp-product__pricing\">\n            \n            \n            <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.prepmycar.com\/wp-content\/plugins\/aawp\/assets\/img\/icon-check-prime.svg\" height=\"16\" width=\"55\" alt=\"Amazon Prime\" \/>        <\/div>\n\n                <a class=\"aawp-button aawp-button--buy aawp-button aawp-button--amazon rounded shadow aawp-button--icon aawp-button--icon-amazon-black\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/dp\/B001O7I7JE?tag=prepmycar00-21&#038;linkCode=ogi&#038;th=1&#038;psc=1\" title=\"Check Price On Amazon\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener sponsored\">Check Price On Amazon<\/a>\n            <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n    \n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The clay bar product from Meguiar\u2019s is available as part of a kit that includes a quick detailer or as a stand-alone 80 g block.
