    If anyone is interested then Henry is half price in Asda at the moment. £47.50. An essential piece of kit for the garage.

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    Apologies if this has been covered but was reading good reviews on a detailing website about clay mitt instead of clay bar. Quicker and easier? Any thoughts/experiences?

    I wouldn't say that they are better than a Dyson in general but they are an excellent machine for car duties.
    When I was an heating engineer we used a wee Henry to help clean out the final bits of dust and soot in coal fired boilers and they took any hammer that we could give them.

    ^^ if you do a search under "mitt" Sandy you'll find a post with folks thoughts/reviews on them
    In a word "quicker" ...
