Its a paint cleaner not a polisher. Its just the detailer that makes it shiny.

how many times can you use them, are they just to be used once or can they be reused?

Can be reused. If its dirty, just knead it with your hands and reuse it. Don't drop it though!

It's not a polish.....

It removes all the contaminents from the paint then you polish / wax after using the clay bar.
