Review: The best car product I've used in....well...ever. Results on my truck were amazing. - Wow....I wish I would have know about this stuff years ago. I used this on my 2011 dark blue Tundra the past weekend and the results were amazing. I wish I would have taken close up before and after photos. Just to be clear, I take good care of me cars and trucks. They're washed weekly, waxed 2-3 times per year, and in the garage when not at work. So I thought the paint wasn't that bad....I was so wrong. I hand washed the truck as usual, and it wasn't even that dirty, more dust that anything. I dried it off with the synthetic chamois and micro fiber towel. Then I broke out the clay bar and lube/spray wax. I took half of one bar and formed it into a disk about the size of a large posit not, maybe a little smaller. I sprayed the lube/wax on the panel and rubbed the clay bar as instructed with slight pressure, but not actually pushing down on it. For the first 2-3 passes I could actually hear the bar as it went over the particles embedded in the paint and then it would become smooth and quite. I turned the clay over and it was brown and full of crap it had pulled of my paint. I wiped the panel down with a micro fiber cloth and the paint literally looked new. I ran my hand across it and it was smoother than I had ever felt it. Overjoyed at the results I continued on with the rest of the truck. It looks amazing. I seriously wouldn't have believed the results if I wouldn't have done it myself. By the time I was on the last panel I could tell the clay was stating to break down, but I was impressed with how long it lasted. They should send 2 bottles of the lube/wax spray, because I think the spray will run out before the clay. I'm sold on this stuff, it was really easy to use and fast, I think start to finish on the clay bar cleaning was maybe 20-30 minutes. I will be doing this at least once a year, if not twice. Well worth the money. Review: Everything you need at a good price - I used to think that claying a car required special skills and care, but today I learned that claying is simple to do with no risk of damage caused by being an amateur, and the results are very satisfying. The price for the kit is better than the price of the three items purchased separately. It's a complete kit with high quality products. Today I used the supplies in this kit on just the trunk lid of my six year old black car after giving it a wash and dry. I followed the steps shown on the box and on Meguiar's online videos, and without much rubbing (a lot like scrubbing the bathtub clean), and then buffing up the light spay finishing wax that comes as the lubricant for the clay, the results were exactly as hoped. With 23+ years of owning black cars, I have been carried off to car paint heaven with this product. Its purpose is to smooth the paint, and after using it, your paint surface has no more of the tiny rough bumps that don't go away with normal cleaning, buffing, and waxing. This process, however, is not meant to get rid of the lacework of swirls that show up as years go on. That calls for an electric buffer, and that's for a different review, but I recommend taking a look at the Meguiar's DA buffer as you compare products. You don't have to clay the whole car at one time, and if you feel like just trying it out, do just one area, like your hood or trunk lid, or top. It's a great product for those of us looney enough to care if our cars are shiny. You see, I've owned cars for years without a single wash. That's actually a nice option too, I think. ## Features - QUICK CAR CLAYING: Quickly and easily removes bonded surface contaminants like paint overspray, industrial fallout, tree sap mist, road tar and more - GLASSY, SMOOTH FINISH: After using clay, wipe with Supreme Shine Microfiber Towel to restore a smooth, glassy finish - BETTER WAX PROTECTION: Wax glides on easily and provides longer-lasting protection after claying - SAFE TO USE: Non-abrasive clay bar works safely on any paint finish including clear coats - COMPLETE CLAY KIT: Includes two 80 gram premium clay bars, 16 oz Quik Detailer Mist & Wipe, a Supreme Shine Microfiber Towel and a case to store and preserve the clay ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00063X7KG | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,369,616 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #708 in Polishing & Rubbing Compounds | | Brand | Meguiar's | | Brand Name | Meguiar's | | Compatible Material | Car Paint | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 3,421 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00070382101169, 00070382800437 | | Grit Material | Clay | | Grit Material Type | Clay | | Grit Number | 80 | | Grit Type | Medium | | Included Components | Meguiar’s G191700 Smooth Surface Clay Kit | | Item Dimensions | 4.72 x 3.54 x 10.24 inches | | Item Type Name | Automotive Accesory | | Item Weight | 800 Grams | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 4.72 x 3.54 x 10.24 inches | | Manufacturer | Meguiar's | | Material | clay | | Material Type | clay | | Model | G1016 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | G1016 | | Set Name | Meguiar's Clay Bars and Accessories Kit | | UPC | 070382101169 716043101610 070382800437 703821011698 070382014148 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Warranty | ## Product Details - **Material:** clay - **Grit Material:** Clay - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 4.72 x 3.54 x 10.24 inches - **Brand:** Meguiar's - **Grit Type:** Medium ## Images ![Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit - Safe and Easy Car Claying for Smooth as Glass Finish - G1016 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81hOucFVqDL.jpg) ![Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit - Safe and Easy Car Claying for Smooth as Glass Finish - G1016 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91WW5lbMfML.jpg) ![Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit - Safe and Easy Car Claying for Smooth as Glass Finish - G1016 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91-poMepL+L.jpg) ![Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit - Safe and Easy Car Claying for Smooth as Glass Finish - G1016 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91Vwm1F9EqL.jpg) ![Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit - Safe and Easy Car Claying for Smooth as Glass Finish - G1016 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91w7fWokeDL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this remove rust stain on the car?** A: I am no authority on this product but my guess would be that it wouldn't help with a rust stain as rust comes from below the paint surface. The clay in my case removed paint overspray and sap wonderfully. **Q: After claying should you rinse or wash the car off or just go straight to waxing?** A: It's up to you, if you feel like there is a lot of debri left then rines it off. Not always necessary though. I went straight to waxing since the debri was wiped away with the cloth. Best of luck. **Q: will it remove varnish that got spilled on my hood?** A: It will not. I would not pick at it, as that could pull clear coat from under the varnish. Try first dish soap and a microfiber towel with warm water, just in case that works. Next, Goof Off solvent applied gently with a microfiber towel. You can't be too aggressive with it as it could begin to strip your car paint. You don't need to wipe it all off- just enough to loosen the varnush to wash it off with the dish soap and warm water. Once you do remove it, you'll probably need to apply a very mild polish, wipe it dry, wipe sparingly with 50/50 isopropyl alcohol and water or wash with dish soap, dry, and wax or seal. **Q: Can you use the clay on a car that is already waxed?** A: Claying a car pulls anything bonded to the paint. Yes, you can clay a car that has already been waxed but it will remove the wax. The steps should be wash, clay, Polish (if desired), then wax. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The best car product I've used in....well...ever.

It seems strange and like a lot of work for you car, but both impressions were incorrect. After washing your vehicle with a safe wash, Claying your vehicle is the next step and a vital step. Claying removes above surface contaminants on your paint's surface: bits of overspray, tar, etc. and lots of other things you can or more likely can't even see. After washing your car, rub your flat hand across the surface. It won't smooth as glass. Furthermore, listen! You'll hear your hand going back and forth over the surface as it rubs against the contaminants. This is a car that needs to be clayed and just about any car if it has never been clayed needs to be clayed. Even a brand new car on the lot often has contaminants. Furthermore, once clayed, it's usually recommend to do it again every 3 months to a year, depending on the environment your car is in. Honestly, claying your vehicle doesn't take a particularly long amount of time. I'd say it's possible to do it in just under thirty minutes. The Smooth Surface Clay Kit from the wonderful folks at Meguiar's is the perfect kit to clay your vehicle. Again, after washing your vehicle, spray an area with the Quick Detailer, and then use the clay bar across the surface. You can search Youtube for Meguiar's Clay kit, to see demonstrations from users, but it isn't hard to do. Do a thorough job on your vehicle, and the way your hand then moves across the surface will impress you. I'm amazed every time. After claying, you have several options. The clay kit includes a sample of cleaner wax, and you can certainly use that. It has some mild cleaners and some protection. However, if you use a cleaner wax, I'd recommend waxing the car more often as it isn't quite as durable as dedicated separate products. Once a month for example with the cleaner wax, would be good. Or, you could use the cleaner wax for its mild below surface cleaning properties followed by a more robust wax product such as Meguiar's Gold Class or NXT 2.0, and then you could potentially be set for a few months. If you want to do even more after claying, you can use a paint cleaner from Meguiar's for below surface contaminants right after claying, and then optionally a Pure Polish after that. You'd top all that off with a wax such as Meguiar's Gold Class, or Meguiar's NXT 2.0. Furthermore, pick up more of the Quick Detailer, and you can use it to remove light dust and contaminants to your paint on a regular basis, and you can actually find you won't have to wash your vehicle as often. Whatever you choose, regular maintenance of your car's finish will keep you smiling for years to come. Meguiar's clay kit is a great way to start because not only does it make your finish smooth as glass, but it allows whatever wax you apply to adhere more evenly and properly to the surface, providing a better shine and longer lasting protection. A great product. Highly recommended. ## Frequently Bought Together - Meguiar's G1016EU Smooth Surface Clay Bar Kit with 180g of clay, 473ml Detailer and a microfibre towel: to safely remove surface bonded contaminants such as tar, tree sap, overspray and industrial fallout - Meguiar's G17216EU Ultimate Compound Colour & Clarity Restorer 450ml for hand or machine polisher application - Meguiar's X3080EU Even Coat 5 Inch Microfibre Reusable Applicator Pads (2 Pack) Hand Applying Compounds, Polishes And Leather Cleaners --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/84248899-meguiars-smooth-surface-clay-kit-safe-and-easy-car-claying](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/84248899-meguiars-smooth-surface-clay-kit-safe-and-easy-car-claying) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
