All about Clay Bar.

I have some water spots and some other surface imperfections on my car that I'm looking to fix. What clay bar products and techniques do you guys recommend. Also any warnings or words of caution. Thanks!

I've used Clay Magic and Meguiars and like the Meguiars better for some reason.

also helps to let the clay sit in some warm water for a little while before you use it
