Zaino claybar is nice, but I have used California Claybar, and most are the same.

I've used mothers and clay magic, and they both worked just as good, but I prefer clay magic though because it comes with a bigger bar of clay than mothers.

And don't worry about the spray, you can make your own spray/lube. Empty spray bottle fill with car wash soap and water!

When I worked at Ferrari of Denver we used Prima. http://www.detailersparadise.com/_sy...20060425132652
Zaino is also really good. As mentioned the lube doesn't matter much. Just use soap and water.

I use Griot's, with their speed shine. Works great, don't like blue magic or 3M.

+1 for griots, it seems like you physically get alot of clay for the money too.
