Tips: ***EDIT: NOV 2016 Please Read. -I suggest using a bucket of water or a spray bottle with SLIGHTLY SOAPY water for lubrication. If you're water is too soapy the clay starts to melt, but yes, slightly soapy water does work- I've experimented a couple of different times. I still don't use the spray (I've now clayed about 6 different cars multiple times each), but find, as other suggested, soapy water to be a better fit. -Your car's body must be spotless before you clay it (wash the car but don't dry it) dry it after you clay it and rinse it. -you can clay the windows too! -Polish then wax your car after you have clayed it to seal out any debris and to bring out the best shine in the paint. The clarity and texture of the paint on my car was greatly improved after claying it :)- I don't think my paint could be clearer. ________________. **1st pic of 05' Mazda clayed only, 2nd pic of '05 Mazda clayed then polished, 3rd pic is a '08 Sebring clayed and waxed, and finally the 4th picture is of a Porsche 968 95' after being clayed, polished, and waxed."
"I also had little rust specs all over the back of the car from pulling a rusty trailer for years."
"I have a white Kia Optima, and the trunk door was very rough to the touch with lots of little dirt specs that seemed impossible to clean."
"Tree sap on my car had been there ever since I bought my lexus used 3 years ago. I broght it to a local detail shop, and they said it will cost $200 to remove all the tree sap. I tried to just set my mind to ignore all the rough surfaces on my car's body. When I found this item on Amazon, I watched their ad video, and bought it. Took about good 30min to shave all that gunky sticky(mine was almost permanently hardened)tree sap, Dried good and applied those quick liquid wax then buffed. Oh, remember, if you happened to drop the clay on the floor while you are working, just throw it away."
"The included bottle of bar lube is plenty to clay even a large, four door sedan."
"The only thing that did it was the clay bar system."

Make your wax protection last longer by removing above surface contaminants while also restoring a smooth-as-glass finish with Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit. With Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit, you will be able to make waxing easier and longer lasting, and safely remove bonded contaminants. Evaluating Your Paint Surface Before using Meguiar's Smooth Surface Clay Kit on your vehicle, it is recommended that you begin by washing and drying your car thoroughly, as it will allow you to evaluate the surface of your vehicle for the presence of various defects needing correction. If not and your paint surface is rough to the touch, this is an indication that you will need to clay your car using Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay Kit. With the proper use of the claying bar and Meguiar’s Quik Detailer (included in the Smooth Surface Clay Kit), the clay will quickly, but gently remove bonded contaminants on your vehicle’s painted surfaces. Claying removes “bonded contaminants” on your paint’s surface; and not “below surface” defects like swirls, scratches or etchings. Make your wax protection last longer by removing above surface contaminants while restoring a smooth-as-glass finish with Meguiar's® Smooth Surface™ Clay Kit. Removing above surface contaminants and restoring a smooth surface to your paint finish is easily accomplished with Meguiar's® Smooth Surface™ Clay Kit. Includes 2- 80 gram bars, clay lubricant, and microfiber towel.

Buy the Mequiars White Wax and wax your car with it AFTER you clay bar and you'll be shocked at the way your car looks..it will look EVEN BETTER than the day you bought it."
"I've been a Meguiar's user for over 10 years, and this is a great starter kit for anyone that is interested in taking the time to detail their own car versus taking it to a car wash or giving to someone as a gift. Some people can't find the time or would rather take their vehicle through a car wash than spend a couple hours washing, waxing and detailing their car. So here's what you get: 16-ounce Gold Class wash shampoo and conditioner, 16-ounce Quik detailer, 16-ounce Quik interior detailer, 16-ounce cleaner wax liquid , 24-ounce Hot Rims all wheel cleaner, washing sponge, foam applicator, and Supreme Shine microfiber towel. 16-ounce Gold Class wash shampoo and conditioner: Just add a few capfuls to a bucket and it provides a sudsy and silky cleaner for your car that won't remove the wax that is on your car. Supreme Shine microfiber towel: This 16"x24" towel is best used to remove the wax you've applied to the car or for use with the Quick detailer. Again, don't use the same microfiber towel for the interior detailer as you do for the wax removal."
"The Meguiar's 11-piece car wash kit, with bucket, is loaded with the premium products you need to gently maintain your car's surfaces including paint, glass, tires, and interior. Ultimate Wash and Wax gently cleans the paint while leaving a deep, glossy finish with additional wax protection. Ultimate Quik Wax is a quick and easy spray that provides a spectacular shine, lasting protection, and relentless water-beading. Perfect Clarity Glass Cleaner is a gentle professional grade formula that provides streak-free clarity while Quik Interior Detailer Cleaner Wipes provide safe cleaning on all interior surfaces. Premium accessories and Meguiar's Yellow Bucket give you the tools to gently wash, dry, protect and maintain your vehicle properly. I usually take my car to the car wash, but I still tend to clean the inside of my care, detail it and wash my windows and windshield."
"Worked great at giving me a smooth and clean surface to begin a full detail with on my Milano Red Honda Fit."
"I will make sure to recommend them to everybody who has a love for their car and I will continue to buy from them for gifts and myself."
"I bought / used this for my 2002 Subaru Outback that had thousands of tiny orange surface rust spots on the exterior paint."

"(Less the bucket and water) Park your car in a shady place and hose it off to cool it down real good. Use the peanut sponge and the Gold Soap on the right of the picture (you only need a cap or two per gallon of water) and wash the car off really well. After you're good and clean hit the rims ONE AT A TIME with the purple (middle) bottle. The white tire foam should turn brown after a few seconds when it comes into contact with brake dust and dirt. I had bird poop on my car the next morning after I waxed it and I used a microfiber cloth and it wiped right away. The red spray bottle is also good for getting rid of water spots after it rains on your fresh wax job."
"A careful claying, followed by a buffing with super-fine polishing compound brought back a remarkable degree of shine to the car, making it entirely presentable in ordinary driving."
