Detail spray usually comes with the clay bars as a package. You can get the Meguairs kit right off the shelf at Wal-Mart, O'Reilly's etc. It works just as well as any expensive stuff you could get from AutoGeek. Just be sure to wash your car using Dawn dishwashing soap to strip any wax that may be still on the car. Spray the detail spray generously as you work the clay bar over the surface. Make sure you work the clay bar really well and pay attention to any contaminants you pick up off the surface onto the clay bar. Don't use the clay bar on the plastic molding around the car, metal only.

After that, you can continue on to whatever else you would like to do like the swirl remover, polish, wax etc.

Or, you can pay Nic to do it all for you if you want to be a slacker. Haha.
