1. Does it come in different grades, colors?
2. Which brand has proven to work for you?
3. How often do you use it?
4. Does it need to be used with any special lubricants?
5. What Lube works best for you?
6. How long do you use it before discarding?

1) Meguiar's clay kit only comes in one style I believe. There's all kinds of clay you can buy, I think they all are the same but I'm sure others would disagree.

2) Meguiar's products appeal to me so that's what I used. Fairly easy to find.

3) I used it for the first time in the fall before I put mine away. Once a year will likely be fine.

4) you have to use Lube or the clay won't work.

5) quick detailer is great. You can also use one you create yourself or mix up some water and optimum no rinse wash concentrate in a squirt bottle.

6) use it until you can't find a clean piece or you drop it. The clay can continually be folded over to find a clean piece. My kit came with two full bars I only used half of one so I think it will last a while.
