Claying is for taking off bonded surface contaminants so you have a pristine paint surface with which to wax. Things like tar, sap, rail dust, water spots, bugs, over spray, and other sticky crap that may hinder the waxes ability to bond to your paint. Pick up a Meguiars "Quick Clay" kit and follow the directions, its super easy and you can immediately see/feel the results. It made a difference on my Z even a few days after I got it. ETA: I just ran into a thread about this over at the Meguiars forum... Quote:
