Hey guys wich clay bar is best? I have never used one before. I have some light water spots on my car most likely from the water at my house. The sun got on it a couple of time before i could dry it and i can't get the spots out. A few people told me to try using a clay bar but witch one is best?

I've had good results with the Zaino claybar and their related products. Check them out @ www.zainostore.com

claymagic

Use the claymagic light grade blue clay bar with automagic 49bodyshine. It's a fantastic combination. Works wonders on your exterior and won't crumble like most other clay bars.

True, the lube is not great, but you can use any quick detailing spray or even a 10-1 mix of water and car soap to lube...Its the quality of the bar that should matter most, and Claymagic and Mother's for that matter are both good choices.

Actually, after using the clay, they make some fine quality artist sculpting and shaping clay that I believe is the exact same (that California clay). The only difference would be price. The artist stuff is cheaper. I will do some research and see if it really is the same, because the principle of how the clay works is identical.
