Default I thought of this the other day

To any member with experience,



I have a bottle of ICE liquid clay at home, and "Mothers" clay bar system as well.

What if I use subsitute the showtime instant detailer with "ICE" liquid clay while I use the clay bar? Would I see better results?

OR

Should I just use liquid clay first then use the REAL clay afterwards?
I have used the "ICE" clay and results were OK but its not the real thing I know.




On another note, my co workers gave me some leather conditioner from BMW,
would it be wise to use it on a lexus?

Any advice would be great

thanks

id just use the real clay and after a panel use a clean side of the clay. and leather conditioners are universal pretty much...just clean then condition.

The clay bar would be sufficient alone and will get the job done

stick with the regular clay. you could marr your clear if the clay bar is not properly lubricated. then you'd have to spend more time buffing to get the same result.
