Clay products consist of a bar of clay (yup, moldable stuff just like kids and ceramic artists use) which is used to remove surface dirt and contaminants by rubbing it on the car's finish after wetting it with a lubricating liquid.

The Clay Magic brand of clay detailing product is unique from other brands. (It has a patented formula - that's not just an expression, but refers to the fact that its formula is registered with the U.S. Patent Office and cannot be copied by others.) Clay Magic acts as an adhesive and removes contaminants by getting them to adhere to the clay instead of the paint. Other brands act as an abrasive and remove contaminants by wearing down the finish slightly.
Clay Magic is a great product, and it's cheaper than the other brands, too

Zaino and nothing else.

Although Meguiars Gold Class is pretty good as well. I like Zaino over Meguiars mainly because it lasts longer and it's got an incredible shine.

ZFX - wax cure
Z2 - wax/ polish
Z5 - swirl remover
Z6 - gloss enhancer spray
Z18 - claybar

You can any claybar though. They're all basically the same.

clay bar, zymol cleaner wax, S100 caranuba. It's easy it's fast it's relatively inexpensive and the S100 is amazing. After you buff it off there's no white powder, it just comes off clean and shiny.
