DanielWalker10... I had the same questions of what to do and if it was really worth it. The answer is a definite yes. Here's a link to when I was a newbie not that long ago:

As others have said ... once you do it, you'll wonder what took you so long. Have at it

For comparison purposes - the Megs OTC clay kit comes with two 50 gram bars. If you buy the 200 gram bars from Adam's, you should probably break them up into at least 4 pieces.
I just looked up the Megs - I thought they were 80 gram - maybe they used to be, because I broke mine in half. This was about 3 years ago.

I ordered some rain guards from amazon witch arrived broken. So imma send this back with cost about 40 and when the refund hits, I'm gunna order the Adams kit. Its like this, Why by a razor(OTC stuff) when the iPhones(Adams) better? Lol might cost a little more but it should pay off in the end

I'll be claying this spring as well. Sounds like alot of us have the same idea.
For those of you in the know, would it be best to wash with dish soap to strip the wax before claying? Or will a normal wash be fine? I guess I'm asking if the clay will work better when not having to work through a layer of wax.

If you are going to strip wash Dawn... regular dawn... is the one to use. People mistakenly think that ALL dish soaps will strip wax, but some won't. The ones with Oil of Olay or whatever in them will more often leave a residue on the finish, so you just want plain old, regular, no frills, liquid dawn.
Tell me about it. Even in SoCal right now... the days where we get sun the wind is blowing, then it drizzles 2 days later so theres been no point in detailing my stuff.... I'm ready for spring/summer to get here!!

Automagics patent runs out this year, meaning everyone (including mothers) in the US is free to sell their choice of bars. As it stands now no one has that option... but in Europe and Canada the selection of bars is huge and there are some seriously great clays out there that are just blocked from this market by AM and their patent.
