I think I can agree with your evaluation of the liquid clay and I'll take that off my short list - but what I'm real curious about is the sponge.

Arizona Beige. I'm not out to do a multi-step detail like you guys do - and your work looks great, by the way. I'm looking to simply clean it up and protect it without busting my ***, thinking clay or the sponge and a hand NXT job. Until I started reading this forum I would have simply gotten some kind of cleaner wax for clear coats and used it like in the old days. I'm not OCD about my truck like you guys - I just want to "wash and wax" it. If I wanted to get it looking like yours, I'd pay you to do mine for me, I don't have the energy any more to go through all that.

The sponge looks easier to use and can be rinsed if dropped on the ground. I'm looking at simple advantages like that, I just don't want it to mess up my truck.

What do you think? Whatever I wind up doing, I'll take pics and write something up to share my experience, that's the least I can do.
