NanoSkin AutoScrub Fine Foam Pad Reviews

I Highly recomend it . It amazed me , i been detailing for over 10 years and always learning new tools and products . I been always using "CLAY BAR " but now thia will be my go to when it comes to paint decontamination , Clay pad for big panels and clay bar for tight areas , a good combo to have. Will be buying it again withouth doubt

I loved this decontamination tool. This is my go to tool now. Although I still feel a clay bar still gets into smaller areas and does a better job in tight areas the time saved using this item to decontaminate justifies it alone. Will continue to use this along with a clay bar.

This is so much easier than using clay. I'm not a professional, just a guy that keeps my personal vehicles detailed. Not sure how long it will last. Considering the price, I hope it will last quite a while.

Incredible! For years I used clay but I decided to give this a try. It's the best! Try it you won't be disappointed.

I was really impressed with this product. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being as good or better than actual clay I would give it an 8.5.
Pros: Easy, simple, fast. Covered more area in less time. I used Nano Glide and it was great too.
Cons: nothing really that bad about it. Very satisfied with the results.

I did find this very easy to use and it produced decent results. However, I am not sure if the results were better than when I have used clay. That being said, the convenience of using this is so great, vs. clay, that even if the results are a bit less, I do not care. I used this with my Porter Cable on the lowest setting (1).

While I agree with other reviewers that this pad does speed up your "claying" process, I'm not convinced that the results you get are better. I've had several occasions where the top surface of debris is removed, and the surface feels smooth, but there is still a residual spot left on the paint. I had to use traditional clay to remove it. I'm sure the more aggressive pad would have better results on these tough spots, but the fine grade clay did the trick. Both of these tools will stay in my bag.

Tried it for the 1st time today. What a great product. Used it on an 8 year old FJ, and the results were incredible.Looks like a new truck !! Thanks for a great product and thank you for this great website !!

I love NanoSkin Auto Scrub pads, we have almost completely done away with clay at my shop since we started using these. Make sure to order the NanoSkin Glide it is the perfect slip solution to use with these pads. I can't recommend them enough!!

This stuff worked great. Much faster than using clay by hand and I think the results better, and were a lot more consistent, from panel to panel. As DI suggested, I went with the Glide lube and that was crucial to it working well. So many reviews say to keep it well lubricated, so I actually over-used the lube at first while I got used to the process. Once I got the hang of it I was able to dial it back just a little and ended up using only about 8 oz of diluted Glide (used the ratio recommended on the bottle).
I think this is my Go-To product as a substitute for clay. I will probably only keep some clay around for wheels and other small jobs, because the Nanoscrub is faster and produces better results.

A must have, haven't picked up clay in some time because of this product. Works much quicker and better than clay, I use it by hand instead of on a DA. Make sure you break it in on glass before you start using it on any paint.

A great product. It is definitely faster to use the scrub pad on a PC than to clay by hand. Not only that, I found it to be very effective in cleaning the paint. There was some mystery tar like substance on my bumper that disappeared before my eyes, literally, that I could not get out by hand. Highly recommend.

The easiest description for this product has already been posted, "Goodbye, clay bar...you have been superseded by technology." I couldn't agree more! I was able to do my entire car in less than an hour and it even removed a scuff on my rear bumper that I thought I would have to polish out. It works so well and so much faster than a traditional clay bar that now I won't dread this step in maintaining the paint on my vehicles and as a result I'll do it more often. I used the fine pad, so I cannot comment on the medium pad.

I ordered one pack of these recently. Super Fast shipping as usual. I have only used one pad so far on a single vehicle and used it by hand as I have only a rotary buffer and these are not to be used with the rotary. Amazed at the time saving versus clay bar and the effectiveness in removing paint overspray quickly. Used the NanoSkin lubricant diluted per directions. Vehicle is a 1949 Chevrolet one-ton panel truck so quite a bit of area to cover. I estimate that less than a third of the time which would have been required with clay was expended in this project and the results are truly comparable to those with a clay bar. I did drop the pad once on garage floor but simply cleaned it up under running water and went back to work instead of throwing out perhaps half of a clay bar. I am a believer at this point.

This thing is nothing short of amazing. I used it on my car when i got it and it literally cut my clay time down to about a half hr by hand. I probably could even cut that time down more if i didnt take any breaks. I will never use a clay bar again.

Excellent product! Was wary at first, thought it might be a little gimmicky, but no. I used with my PC, speed at 1.5, and by hand on the tight areas of my Mini Cooper. Cut clay time by at least half , especially once you get the feel it. I was super cautious at first, but it was soon apparent that this thing worked!! The other great feature is that if you drop it, it is not trash like clay, just rinse it off! I don't see any reason to ever use clay again. After topping with CG Jetseal 109, CG Blacklight and finally CG 50/50 the orange metallic looked amazing!! BUY THIS ONE!

Goodbye, clay bar... you have been superseded by technology.

I will never use a traditional piece of clay bar again after using this! What took me 4 hours of clay barring on vehicles that were sprayed with polyurethane foam, I was able to do in less than an hour using this fine foam pad! I found that using it by hand worked just as good as using the DA plus I didnt have to worry about excessive water entering my PC. The fine pad works much better than the medium pad for normal and heavily damaged vehicles. KEEP IT WET and watch for sharp edges, it WILL tear the rubber and leave bad streaks and marring!
