The only negative is that the bar is quite small and was quite difficult to keep hold of.
How many times can you re-use the bar as mine seemed quite contaminated with muck?

You will get a few uses from a clay bar, i break mine up and keep it in warm water (something very clean so doesnt scratch the paint (lunch boxes work well)), Also claying wont remove swirl marks if you polished and waxed this can reduce the appearance of swirls.

Thats a good idea to keep it in a lunch box!

I will have to do mine again and whack some wax on this time!

I used the clay bar to prep my car up for some stripes etc but haven't managed to source the ones I am after yet!
