I was looking to amazon.com for the Mothers Speed Clay 2.0. Its a synthetic clay. I like to use synthetic clay and i use Farecla Mitt clay. Someone asked if could use Carpro Ech2o as lubricant for the Mothers Speed Clay 2.0 and the answer from the Mothers was:

"Question: May i use carpro ech2o in the proper dilution rate as lubricant?
Answer: That is not a suitable lubricant. You want a commonly-found water-based instant detailer or spray wax, such as our Mothers California Gold Instant Detailer, Mothers California Gold Spray Wax, or Mothers Speed Spray Wax."

What to do with Farecla Clay Mitt and every synthetic clay mitt? To use or not Ech2o as lumbricant? As i see from they answer the detailer and the lubricant i guess should be water based.....
Any help?
Untill now as lubricant i use the Meguiars Quick Detailer and it cost me a lot to clay my car....
Thank you

Echo2 Can be used as a clay lubricant when it is diluted 1:40. I have not personally used it with that clay combination so I am not sure exactly how it would work. If you are looking for a clay lubricant We offer Carpro Immolube (https://www.carpro-us.com/deep-cleanse/carpro-immolube-500ml-17oz/) which will work well with synthetic clay. That may be a good option for you if you don't want to try out the echo2. I would recommend testing it out with the clay you have purchased on a test section to see if it can work with your products.

Yesterday i used it with a synthetic clay in dilution 1:30 not 40 and i had not problem. Ech2o is very good as lubricant!
Thank you for your kind help James Rogers

Just an FYI - Immolube (https://www.carpro-us.com/deep-cleanse/carpro-immolube-500ml-17oz/) is concentrated! Do not use full strength.
Don't ask me how I know...(yes, I did this the first time)
You will not be able to get water to stay on the paint!

I like buying concentrated products. I do not like paying for water!
Most (if not all) clay lube products are premixed with water.

CarPro ECH2o Waterless & QD Concentrate is a waterless wash and Quick Detailer.
Does it have lubricity? Yes, but its design is not a clay lube.

Thank you my friends for your help. I am novice with the concetrated products. So i will have Echo2 for quick detailer and waterless wash and i will buy the Immolube. I did not know about Immolube when i was buing Ech2o. The Ech2o and as quick detailer is amazing in the gloss. I am very satisfy!
