Yes - highly regarded and you can use water as a lube.

That's the clay you're thinking of dragonfly. Never tried the Autobalm must get a sample pot actually :)

Probably got lost in the "Great Crash of 08

Used it today, not too sure, you need to apply it in very small sections & wipe off straight away, it dries fast & if you miss any bits they are a pain to get off  :undecided: So much so, I washed the car again & waxed it with AG HD. 

Only reason I bought the Auto Balm was because the shop recommended it cos they had no collinite in stock.......  :sick:

I've actually never tried any of the Bilt Hamber products, they get rave reviews over on Detailing World though.

Oh nuts - my fault!!  I used the Balm but this was way back and I couldn't get on with it.  Reminded me of a thicker version of Mer Polish.

Their clay is really good, used that a few times now, but as for the Balm, forget it, save your money!
