Great tip. You can undo all of your hard work real quick with a dirty towel.

^^ I just threw away two pieces of hardly used clay, because my fingers slid off and it fell the floor.

Been there and the clay is really bad as it holds on to dirt.

definitely into the garbage with a clay bar. That is why I do not like paste as it seems to get dirt into the container all by itself and then it's garbage. I now use strictly liquid wax for this reason

No I've been real impressed with the AutoGlym products, and will likely stick with that.

I picked up a bunch of Autoglym stuff on sale at Canadian tire a few weeks ago. I'm looking forward to trying it out as soon as I get some time.

Wouldn't you use Ragg Topp cleaner when the top is dirty or stained or has something like bird droppings on it? For weekly or daily washing would using regular car wash soap do any harm to a soft top?
