Damn it. I knew I forgot to order something. I was going to order the Nanoskin autoscrub sponge. I know there is that speedy towel, but I don't clay lost of cars or do this everyday so can't justify paying almost 60 dollars when the sponge is 10. So just for future reference, how do you guys deal with when clay or these speedy towels/sponge start marring the surface?

Don't let it get to that point, trash them before they start marring.

Ok. Supposed to be the same as the speedy prep towel. Should cut the time in half or more than normal clay

Hey Matt, what would be better for the application of liquid sealant and wax? Microfiber pads or foam? I got microfiber pads from Car Pro-UsA or is this a subject that is a preference thing?

Back from vacation, had a great time. Was staying at The Catamaran Resort on Mission Bay. Excellent location, couple minutes walking from the ocean. Went with a really close friend.
