There are many clays about, dependent on how much you want to pay. What did you use as a lube, and what did you wax or polish/wax with after?

thanks for the comments its alot of work really for what its worth claying then waxing then polish. The polish is a cut a resin polish from auto glym which in my opinion is the best finish. The claying really just takes of the dirt you cant see and the smooth finish. It really is for cars with darker colours ie my red escort silver does not shine as much as a dark deeper colour. All products (wax and clay) are from maguires. My advise for the day if you have a darker colour car the best finish after a wash it auto glym cut and resin polish it really is amazings (its the red one)
