I've used the megs claybar & dodo's supernatural. Megs seemed to take off tar spots etc with less effort than the supernatural. Supernatural seems to be a much softer clay but 3 bars of supernatural for £17 is much better value IMO

Gimmie5 is the waxamomo discount code BTW

Never had a problem with Halfords Professional clay - it's very sililar in consistency and results to the Megs clay. I would go for Megs if they were side by side, but I guess I'm a sucker for branded goods. Halfords Pro clay is fine though if you want something today and don't want to wait for delivery.
