Here's a tip my on passed on to me and it works like a charm (Concours competitors cover your eyes you'd probably be horrified)

Wash your car with ordinary car wash soap and rinse it, re-wash with newly made soap and don't rinse it off. At this point use the clay bar and the soapy water acts as the lubricant. Works AWESOME. I've got a huge black Dodge Ram Quadcab 4x4 and I've started doing this. Claying goes SO much faster this way. Just remember to stretch and refold your clay bar often so you don't rub contaminants back into the paint. I do about half my truck easily then I rinse. I do the other half, rinse and depending on what I'm doing I either wax with Zaino or I use 3M Hand Glaze, then wax. Remember, my truck is huge compared to doing a 911. Love the clay on windshield followed bythe Invisible Winshield product to fill pits. I'm trying it asap. Ryan, break out that clay and get to it! How long have you had that car anyway? I'd have done it the first weekend:>)
