Looking good Hoosier - question, what clay/cleaning products do you use?

Interested in doing this myself this summer/spring - don't know where to start.

Thanks.

For the clay, I use the Mothers bar and quick detailer. Works great.

The painted cleaner, I use Meguire's Deep Crystal Paint cleaner, but has been discontinued...
Polish is Meguire's Deep Crystal Polish, again discontinued sadly...
Wax is Barrier Reef Carnuba Wax, $21 at Advance. Can't figure out how to hyper link (sorry) http://www.surfcitygarage.com/detail1.php?product_id=18

I can tell you that HANDS DOWN the best thing to remove tar swirls, residue from old decals, baked on tree sap and will still not harm your clearcoat... You gotta get 3M Adhesive remover. Its in a black spray can with a blue lid. I usually pick mine up from wal mart. It was still there last time i picked some up about a year ago. Trust me, its the best stuff on the market.

The reason I'm not lifted yet is because of the black thing sitting down the driveway...
