    I refuse to use it. I like to kneed my clay often and with this it would be a pain to take it out, kneed the clay and put it back. Claying is not that hard or time consuming anyway. Also, if you get a peice of something in it you will do much more damage with the pc than by hand.

    Claying is very dependant on touch and feel. The PC would take that away. I just don`t see it as an option, ever.

    Count me as another "I would never use that." It is in the same category as the CWB for me, one tiny piece of debris is all it takes for some serious damage to occur.

    Machines always sound like a better option than doing anything by hand, but not in this case. With clay, you need to feel the surface, that can`t be done with a machine.

    Maybe if a car has severe fallout, it may be nice to have a machine do a once over to make doing it by hand easier, but only if it makes removing, kneeding, and replacing the clay a breeze.
    I`ve been busy but I`ll try to make some time.

    Never, ever, ever. Not only do you want the feel and the ability to knead the clay to expose fresh surface but sometimes clay may microscratch/swirl the paint due to a contaminant you picked up. Imagine that machine driven....
