I saw it on the shelf and was wondering the same thing. I can't really see it working better than the clay bar though.

absolute junk. don't waste your money or time.

Liquid clay bars have been around a long time .. they are no substitute for the real thing.

yeah... the liquid claybar is absolute crap. i bought it, used it, and it didn't take anything out of my paint and just left a nasty oily residue that made me have to wash my car again. needless to say I returned it.
