Meguiar’s provided me with their Smooth Surface Clay Kit to try out and review, but honestly I’ve been using this very same kit many times in the past. The kit has everything you need it in to clay your car: three clay bars, a spray bottle of clay lubricant, and a microfiber towel. It’s a nice package that allows you to clay multiple cars with just one kit, although you might need some extra clay lubricant and microfiber towels to do so.

Using a clay bar has been the traditional way of mechanically decontaminating a car’s paint, but for some time now there have been some other alternatives such as using a clay mitt or a clay pad. Meguiar’s sent me this product, the Hybrid Ceramic Quik Clay Kit, which I tried out and would like to share my thoughts. This kit includes Meguiar’s Hybrid Ceramic Detailer, as well as a synthetic clay pad and a microfiber towel.
