Autoglym Magma Liquid Clay, 500ml - Colour Transform Technology Bodywork and Wheel Fallout Remover, Removes Stubborn Iron Specks From Car Bodywork, Brake Discs, Car Wheel Cleaner

AutoGlym Magma,A solid product that get rid of ingrained dirt of the bodywork and wheels.I personally just sprayed the solution on the panel or wheels and left to dwell for a couple of minutes before washing off.I would say this doesn't replace the liquid clay however, it does do the job its states and its pretty much effortless to use so to some its less effort and i was impressed with the results.I should state this is to be used after the car is cleaned.Overall a quick spray is all that's needed, i liked the results and felt it was good value.

Even after reading all the positive reviews I still felt skeptical going into using this product... was it really going to be THAT good?! But it was! I have recently purchased a VW Beetle that was bought from a garage located very near a railway line and was also off a busy road which also had a building site across from it. It was literally covered in little rust spots from iron particles and had quite a rough gritty feel to the paintwork. This product worked wonders and the paintwork now feels as smooth as silk. It removed the vast majority of the rust spots, a second use will be needed to get a few more stubborn ones, but overall it's changed the quality of the bodywork massively. I would highly recommend this product and will buy it again myself. Just note that if the product gets onto your skin it leaves an unpleasant smell which is hard to remove.

The main purpose of claying a car is to remove microscopic contaminants from the paintwork which is helpful for when correcting paintwork with compounds/polishes and also beneficial when protecting paintwork with waxes/sealants but crucially it can be one of the most effective ways of making your paintwork look that extra bit better. When I initially purchased this I wasn't really into detailing, I bought it because I had little spots of paint from a fence sprayer all over my car, I tried using the strongest thing I had that is appropriate for paintwork (intensive tar remover) but I still had to scrub like crazy at each little spot. This stuff though did the job far more efficiently and left the paintwork incredibly smooth and was the key thing which really got me into detailing.As you work the clay across even seemingly spotless paintwork at first you can feel a drag caused by the microscopic particles bonded to the paintwork then after a few light strokes it goes much smoother as it picks up all the particles. When you look at the clay you can see the astonishing amount of contamination it picks up, also when you rub your hand across the area that has been clayed then an area that hasn't you can feel and hear the difference and if the paint is really badly contaminated you can see the difference.I split the clay into 3 equal parts which gives you 3 pads about the size Autoglym suggests so there is enough clay to do 3 car's (assuming you don't drop any on the floor in which case you must throw it away). You could split it into 2 parts or not split it up at all which might speed up the process a bit. You do have to make sure you use a fair bit of the detailing spray to keep the clay lubricated so I would recommend to try avoid claying in hot conditions especially if you have a dark coloured car as it will obviously evaporate much quicker which not only wastes the detailing spray but generally makes the whole process more awkward. You also want to avoid claying in very cold conditions as you regularly have to fold and knead the clay so you always have a clean surface of clay and in cold conditions the clay becomes firmer and more difficult to work with.Before claying you should inspect your paintwork for tar spots, the key areas to look are the lower half of the sides (particularly around the wheels) and around the rear of the car. If you have any signs of tar spots on the paint it is good idea to remove them with a tar remover (not included) prior to claying, the clay can remove tar spots but it is a struggle and it will almost certainly mar the paint as tar contains grit, so it's easier and safer to just get rid of as much tar as possible with a tar remover first. To clay a whole car in one go is time consuming so it's not a job you undertake lightly. For people who don't like to spend most of a day detailing their car, you don't have to do the entire car in one go, you could clay half the car one day and the other half the next time you clean the car, you should just make sure that you get some protection on the areas you have clayed (a small bottle of Super Resin Polish is included) to help protect from fresh contaminants bonding to the paint.

I'm sure Autoglym warn you of this if you read all the docs, but beware of using this on synthetic coatings, waxes or treatments as it's quite aggressive and has taken off a few coatings on my vehicles when overspray wasn't washed soon enough.But it's a chemical cleaner - so fair doos - and it does it's job on fallout as Autoglym intend.

I used two other brands before this. They were well known brands and not the cheapest. However this is by far the best performer. It doesn’t evaporate quickly upon application so it gives you time to brush the whole wheel. Once you have brushed the foam turns beautiful purple so you know which area has been brushed and needs rinsing. I think this was slightly more expensive than the others BUT it’s so worth it. It makes my job so much easier that I am confident it will save me a lot of time.I would buy this one again and I will search on the internet for bulk sales.

Absolutely brilliant well worth the money made my car look like new.

Having watched you tube about this and also the really good Auto Glym one,i purchased this kit at a reasonble price.My car always looks shiny but i was pleasantly surprised at the overall finish after using the clay bar and spray.I purchased several autoglym e cloths,which are very effective for a number of uses,Once waxed and polished the car looks great and several people have commented on how good it looks.Easy to use,good finish at a fraction of the cost a bodyshop would charge.I am nearly 80 and i did not feel worn out or knackered after doing this.
