Clay your vehicle FASTER and SAFER with The Rag Company Ultra Clay Towel!

[@BetterThanNewDetailing]

Chelsea I ditched the clay bar months ago. On lightly contaminated clearcoat I’ll use just the clay towel. On heavy contaminated clearcoat I’ll first use an iron remover then use the clay towel. I have clay sponges and a clay disc for the da polisher but they’re more aggressive than what’s needed on most vehicles. Keep up the great work!

[@DjBann]

Recently purchased the clay towel and used it on two vehicles......I am NOT disappointed. Tried other clay towels and mitts. They did the job but left quite a bit of marring. One of the best clay towels i've used.

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Yes! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kbstoy1913]

I have the Rag Company's clay towel and its a lot easier for this senior enthusiast to use . Thanks for the heads up on OP`s iron remover this along with clay will be used in getting our cars ready for PA`s winter. Will be trying out 303`s new graphene spray. THANK !!

Excellent washing idea for older people god bless you many thanks again

[@johnparkerzabala]

You nailed it!!! Love your attitude!!! We are not getting any younger 🙏😇❤️

[@alexpope5327]

I just came across your video after shopping for a clay towel. Great info, especially with doing the wash and decon in the same step. I got a bottle of NV Purify to use with. mine, which is a fallout remover and lubricant all in one. Looking forward to trying it out on my daily driver which has been neglected since I bought it a year ago.

[@404notfound.....]

Definitely a lot faster than the conventional method. Great video Chelsea.

[@Sinisterg60]

These definitely last. I still have the original ultra clay towels and they still work fantastic after around 40 or so decons and a number of wash, clay wax's I can't remember. Little tip, buy one for decons and buy one for wash, clay wax services.

[@BB_Detailing_00]

Thanks for the tip.

Yes, the site of music from Marco Lazovic is one of my favorites apecially the ones for Battle themes

[@martyhog01]

Kneading clay is a pain, but the results are not comparable. I've used clay towels, clay mits, nano skins, and nothing comes close to clay.

[@barrycook8116]

I agree. I just use warm water and AM details clay is the softest and best. However, this is good to have as well.

[@koniko169]

How many different cars have you used a clay bar on. How many cars have you used a clay towel on etc

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

Hi madame Amber too.👋👍🇵🇷 Madame Chelsea always rocks. Yes, we all seem to be getting older 😁 and we must have a good diet besides the lots of exercise we do during the day. Oh, just noticed in this video you protected your right thumb. One of the things I normally do is use from WaxPlanet the soap named Eight Below or Ultimate or Autowash from Bilt Hamber then Korrosol from Bilt Hamber before using any clay method. Then, if needed the exact clay sponge with the soap.

[@functionaldoc5054]

Own one love it better in that can see the dirt on the scrubbing surface and easy to clean it and store. Nice video Chelsea

I decided the rag company mitt blue color take care stay blessed🙏😇❤️

Super mom does it again! Thanks for another fantastic movie!

[@cynthiaenglish2736]

I’ve been struggling with finding the right clay media. I’ve tried traditional clay bars and they are such a hassle for all the reasons you mentioned. Tried a clay mitt but it hardly removes anything. I’m definitely going to pick up the Rag Co clay towel. Thanks for the tip!

[@nicksdragon6929]

GREAT job as always. By the way, I have started using P & S Pearl soap which is the slickest soap I have ever used. 5 gallons is $48 to $64 depending on vendor and sale price, amazing. The lubricity is out of this world and I now totally understand why Pan and so many others are raving about it. It's not a big foamer, but it is an excellent cleaning prewash in a cannon or in a contact wash with the best lubricity. Try it you will love it.

[@sikkinixxmc]

I used the griots clay sponge thing. Sometimes it leaves black marks on the paint because it wasn’t slick enough even with car soap, so I tried a drop or two of dish soap. Works awesome.

[@superstring101]

I just discovered this video. Very well done!

[@matthewgibb2640]

If i was still in business id only use a clay disc. So much quicker and safer than bars. But not all clay discs are created equal. Many are crap

[@jaykid007]

Thats an awesome clay towel. Got to pick one up.

[@MikesAutoDetailing]

Yet another great video by Chelsea.... thank you

[@OCDaddyZsolt]

I have two clay towels and use it sometimes, but definitely should use it more, to save time. Good video, cheers ;)

[@ChicagoRob2]

Great video. Surprised there was no marring, especially on a black car.

[@mrdetailer470]

Something I will definitely have to try. My previous concrns with the clay towels was the introducing of marring above and beyond that of traditional clay. So hopefully this will present a new choice.

[@fredjimenez9084]

Love watching your videos. It seems like detailing is make generated. Good to see a woman do an amazing job! I have the clay glove, good-bad?

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Clay glove is fine! I just like the larger towels because I can fold it in floor and get more use out of it plus less tendency to push down hard where as with a mitt, sometimes our nature is to scrub and you don’t want to scrub with a clay towel, you let the towel do the work

[@splendidsplinter739]

Another awesome video! Thanks Chelsea!

[@savport]

In my opinion, synthetic clay bars, towels, etc all cause way too much micro marring. Also notice that it doesn’t remove traffic film that is leftover from wash process. And I’ve had bad luck with black streaks from synthetic clay products

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

With proper lubrication this decreases that risk greatly. We examined the vehicle after drying and there was no marring visible.

[@gumelcarrasco2480]

Hi..great video. My question is did you you use the same bit of soapy water for the whole car or did you renew the bucket.

[@LJfootball14]

Could you show the car after drying so we can see if there is marring? Thanks

[@MikeBee77]

Awesome video! I just got the Autoscrub from Nanoskin and after watching your video, I am wanting to get the one you used from the Rag Company as it looks it doesn’t mar the paint, but is out of stock. I haven’t tried the Nanoskin, so I don’t know how it will leave the paint, will see. Thanks for the video!!!

[@joliewu8625]

Can you only use the light blue side, or the dark blue side as well? Thanks!

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Just the clay side

[@tomlanko2547]

Great video! What grade would consider this towel compared to clay? Fine,medium,heavy?

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Id say fine/medium at most

[@paulgyro]

It's fine grade

[@scottpunswick5051]

Appreciate this, cutting time is important!

[@cliplab44]

Do this work better than the clay mitt

[@chrismurphy783]

Great video. I am waiting for mine to be delivered.

[@RocketCouple]

Hi Chelsea. Thank you for the awesome video. I wonder if this clay towel is safe without polishing afterward. Would you suggest to polish a brand new car before ceramic coat? Thank you!

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Depends on how thorough the wash step is and the softness of the paint. You dont always have to polish vehicles before coating as long as the paint is clean and decontaminated properly and customer is okay with paint condition

[@RocketCouple]

@@attention2detailswchelsea Thank you for the reply. I am making a plan for my own car. I am not a professional😋.

Hey Chelsea. I did this process but my iron remover stained my paint. Left white stuff similar to a waterspot. How do I remove it?

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Do you have single stage paint? Did you let it dry in the panel?

[@danf.8787]

@@attention2detailswchelsea not really. Run through the usual claying on one side then rinsed it. I was even in a covered area so i was really surprised

[@richsmith3120]

Good tip.

[@Jay-gc2re]

Great info !! Thanks 👍🏼

[@hernan2838]

Do they mar the paint? I have a clay mitt but it Mars the paint sometimes like crazy

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

They can if you don’t do a pre wash or use proper lubricant

[@hernan2838]

Thank you for responding, how do you keep the towel clean though? I sprayed it down with water but there seems to be white specs on the towel that cause the towel to mar the paint

[@jameshutchins3396]

That is fast! Wow! Love it

[@kimnewling5728]

I like this claying method. Now the question is: what are you going to do with winter coming? I have to shut water off outside due to freeze up. The only thing I can do is rinseless washing in my garage, and I do that sparingly.

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

You can use your rinseless wash as lube! Do your panel with the rinseless wash, have clay towel soaking in same bucket, clay the panel with rinseless wash, can even use a spray wax as additional lubricant and wash, clay and wax ALL AT ONCE!

[@kimnewling5728]

@@attention2detailswchelsea ok.....I just watched video with Yvan. I get the idea. The only thing is I don't trust folks pushing their products. I trust independent folks (like you) who use any kind of products they want to get job done. The sponge in their rinseless wash with clay towel? Hmmm?? Dirt on car, dirt to sponge, dirt to water, (where clay towel is) dirt floats around and gets both sponge and clay towel contaminated. My water got pretty dirty the first time I did rinseless wash, so stopped putting wash mitt/sponge back into clean water right away. Use 5 mitts to rinseless wash car, never dunking dirty mitt into wash solution. Then dry with towel. I'd prefer how you do things in the real world, then watch a scientist push products. I trust you way more!!!

Hi Chelsea, how do you know when to do just chemical, mechanical, or both chemical and mechanical decontamination?

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

I do chemical and mechanical when prepping for coatings. For just a routine wash and wax I'll lightly clay only UNLESS I see visible signs of heavy rail dust on the vehicle (orange specks on paint) and then ill do both.

[@95Civictuner]

Would you decon while washing after you wash/rinse the panel first? Thanks for the info on the rag company towel.

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

You can if its lightly soiled. I always do a quick pass with my wash rag but if its a cleaner panel will just immediately follow with the clay towel. If its really dirty, ill foam soak first, rinse, wash with wash mitt then wash again with clay towel.

[@95Civictuner]

Perfect! Thank you again!

[@troy14roy14]

So you wash and clay at the same time. Do you use this method frequently or you wash first, then you clay an then .... tks 😉

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Wash first then clay but use the same soapy water a lot of times unless the car was especially dirty.

[@stanng9246]

Can you use an ordinary claylube with the towel? Like the one from Chem Guys?

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Yes that or a rinseless wash

[@Dee--Jay]

can u clean these in the washing machine

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

No. Just dona gentle agitation with apc and a gentle brush to remove tar, etc, rinse with soap, squeeze out and lay flat to dry with clay side up not touching anything

[@p5tom]

you want to go in straight lines to be safe, never in a circular / swirl motion. if do by chance mare , line (s) are much easier to remove....also remember lots of hands on the surface can induce oil

[@jhovanyatz6623]

How would you say this compares to the nanoskin towel ?

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

Marrs far less than the Nanoskin towel. Same price for their clay wash mitt but lasts longer imo

[@Bigworm928311]

I love your channel. Can I ask what you charge for a job like this. Wash, Clay, wax? And how long it takes you on average. Look forward to hearing back from you.

[@akirameru675]

So I'm a newbie but does the paint need to be bare (no wax) before you clay bar?

[@MikesAutoDetailing]

No

[@MikesAutoDetailing]

No

[@attention2detailswchelsea]

No clay bareing removes bonded contaminants that actually prevent your wax from truly bonding with the paint. Do this BEFORE you wax and to periodically remove contamination from your paint.

[@akirameru675]

Thank you both

[@1stfrompuertorico568]

If you have an iron fallout remover like the one from Griot's Garage or Meguiar's Iron Remover Spray Clay DRTU200232 or from Bilt Hamber Korrosol or from AM Details the iron fallout remover after a wash or pre-wash, will dissolve lots of the iron particles and then you check for the remaining embedded particles to use the clay sponge with the soap as lubricant.
