Extend the life
and increase the performance of clay bars.
Product review by Terry Freiberg
It's fair to say that clay bars have revolutionized detailing. Combined with a
lubricant, these small, soap bar sized, sticky bricks quickly and easily remove
paint contamination, overspray and embedded pollutants from paint and glass
without scratching. Prior to clay bars, this task would require hours of machine
compounding which would abrade away a portion of the top, clear coat.
All clay bars
have the same application procedure. Mist the surface to be cleaned with
lubricant and lightly massage the clay bar over the surface until it glides
freely. When the bar becomes soiled, stretch and refold it to expose a clean
surface. When the bar becomes soiled enough that stretching and refolding no
longer exposes a clean surface, discard the bar.
Do you see the
problem here? The chemists at Blackfire did and created BLACKFIRE Clay
Cleaner & Extender. The problem is you're folding all the removed grime
and contamination back into the bar! Blackfire's chemists reasoned that if they
could remove the majority of grime and contamination on the bar before it is
folded, the bar would stay cleaner, longer. They were right! Now when the bar
becomes soiled, mist it with Clay Cleaner & Extender, massage it in the
palm of your hand as you would a bar of soap and rinse with tap water,
a garden hose or simply swish it in a bucket of water. Look at the difference!
95 to 98% of the grime has been removed! Now stretch and refold the bar and
continue claying.

BLACKFIRE Clay
Cleaner & Extender was developed for Blackfire's PolyClay but I've tried it
with clay bars from other manufacturers and found it to work equally as well.
If you're a
professional detailer or body shop manager, this cleaner will dramatically cut
your clay costs. Instead of cleaning 3 or 4 cars per bar, you should be able to
clean 10, 12 or more vehicles per bar!
Customer
Comments; I just wanted to let you know that I have found a new use
for Blackfire Clay Cleaner & Extender. After using the Menzerna polish and
sealants, my foam pads have been getting very soiled. I sprayed my dirty pads
with Clay Cleaner & Extender before I washed them and it removed all the
residues! My pads came out like new. I know this is not a listed use but I
thought you might be interested in how well this worked. Thanks.
