RE: Turtle Wax Ice Liquid Clay Bar
The Turtle Wax Liquid Claybar shouldn't even be advertised as a claybar. It won't even come close to doing what a real claybar will do. The Turtle Wax stuff is basically just a polish that will clean the paint. It won't remove any embedded contaminants.

I used it. Wasn't too bad. Definitely what Juztang said though, it doesn't come close to the real deal. Its more like a watery wax that you can douse the car in and wash it off. After a while, it dries, ends up looking like you waxed, and then you have to manually dry all that off with towels.

RE: Turtle Wax Ice Liquid Clay Bar
1+ I agree. Nothing beats claybars!!!!!! Very easy to use and I could get a whole mustang done in less than an hour and that is taking my time. Let the clay do the work and I never use clay in a circular motion. The lubricant you use makes all the difference as well. I clayed my bros car and it is brand new and felt rather smooth, but after the clay it was smooth as glass and towels and other small stuff now slides off and this was before a polish and wax.

The Ice claybar didn't do a damn thing as far as removing tree sap or other little things from my car. Now, where the paint was already clean it did shine it up and take off some of the spider web scratches, but that was about it.
I did finally find that Tarminator works wonders for getting off the baked on sap though.

A claybar will remove embedded contaminants that are in your paint. A claybar will not hurt hurt your paint at all. You want to use a clay lube as lubrication. Pick out a 2x2 section and spray plenty of clay lube and let the clay glide over the surface, there is no need to apply any pressure. You will notice that your paint will become incredibly slick feeling.
Claying will not hurt your car at all.
