I've used Meguiars and Mothers clay bars, both readily available in Auto Zone, Napa, etc. Make SURE you get a good QD spray with it.

Anyway, they do very good things for your paint if you're careful. Don't rub too much, don't use too much pressure, and make sure to do a paint cleaning/polish/wax after.

Well, my autozone carries them, so just have them order you a Meguiars kit. For ~$11 it comes with the bar and QD spray.

you know your autozone is capable of ORDERING things you want right... I'm sure they'd be MORE than happy to...

I asked about 800grit and higher sandpaper and tack cloths there and 2 weeks later they were in stock.
