May I?
Keep in mind, these videos are marketing ploys to temp you to buy there products. Although some of the techniques conveyed are valuable, some of them, in particular Adams and that clay demo is a little absurd. Never, ever use a whole 8oz bar of clay to clay a panel. #1 its not necessary to use the entire bar when justa couple oz will do, #2, it doesnt allow the bar to warm up, making it more pliable, thus softer and allowing the debris to penetrate the clay. If the bar stays semi stiff, the pollutants will end up marring the surface. Always try to kneed the clay first and warm it up. Kneeding is important throughout the whole claying process. #3, "clay lubes" are not necessary either, water and a little soap is suffice. (Notice exceldetail.com does not sell a dedicated "clay lube"?)
While watching the first video presented from AG, i did notice how nicely it was put together. But again, its all marketing aimed at people who may think this is the only "proper" way to wash a car. I gave up watching after assessing $350.00 in products if you follow their act!!
Be careful what you watch, be more careful in what you believe........

Oh I totally understand what you're saying Pat.

I only posted this so others can see the Techniques used.

Products used I could careless, I always wanted to know how others did it in the video etc.

You don't have to purchase what they are marketing, just watch how they are performing the process of detailing.
