Not really a review, but I just saw this at my local advance auto parts. Similar to other clay alternatives. $24.99 and available locally in a pinch. That's pretty cool. We'll see how long it lasts as at the brick and mortar shops.
 
they've (E1) got some interesting products out (polish & wax and beetle juice). looks like they carry the wheel woolies (one size) just re-branded like the clay towel...
 
I saw this the other day as well. They look to have revamped their product line. Nice to see a clay alternative available at the consumer market. Decent price as well. I may give one a try to see how it works.
 
Well....i picked one up today from Advanced.
Gonna have to wait till it gets warmer to try it out on my DD:xyxthumbs:
 
I have used mine on two really contaminated cars so far. I have nothing to compare it to other than traditional detailing clay, but I do like it. First car was clear coated, second was single stage.

Much easier, IMO. Larger working area, no folding/kneading, easier to hold onto. I'm not sure about the other alternatives, but this does get kind of clogged up or needs to be cleaned to maintain its tackiness. I used a soft brush, Dawn, and warm/hot water. I tried the same with cold water because I was afraid hot water might ruin it, but cold water and soap did not work very well.

I did get some transfer onto the paint at one point, but was also probably not using it properly. I was jamming it into a corner and using a lot of pressure. Transfer came off without to much work.

The first one I did sounded crazy on the paint. Sounded like I was scrubbing a textured shower curtain with a scrub brush on the first few passes. Zip, zip, zip. I used mainly in one direction and could find no marring.
