Not used that item but used the Halfords Clay Mitt. For something I do say twice a year it works very well.

Cool

Prefer the clay bar, goes further. The clay mitt can get very easily clogged up. Generally lasts up to 7 cleans, depending on the car's condition.
Never used the one advertised.

I too, personally use only clay bars. It does take longer then the mitts but it does a better job I feel. The same opinion is shared by most in the detailing world who speak from experience.

Yes, i have used the autosmart one. Really good, minimal marring. You had to break it in on glass first, then i used a duet and spray wax mixture to keep it wet at all times.
