Mothers Showtime will also work.

Most automotive stores (AutoZone, Advanced Auto, PepBoys, Etc.) usually sell either the Meguiar's Quik Clay kit, the Mothers kit, or even the Clay Magic kit. Each kit come with the lube (QD).

I dont know if it's just me but I've never been able to get sap off w/ clay bar. I used goo gone the other nite and it works well. After that you could clay bar. And yeah any parts store would have it. Anybody have just the bar they want to sell. I have 2 spray cans of lube but cant find just the bar for sell. Anybody anybody

Around here this was the only thing i could find checking all four stores Napa Car quest Advance and another Napa store. My biggest concern is this bar to abrassive for me to begin with cuz like i said its red in color and it says for professional use only.

I read on here to use WD-40 for sap. I have pine trees overhanging my driveway in some spots and had sap on my truck. WD-40 did the trick. Just be aware that it will remove any wax. Spray it on a microfiber towel , not directly on your paint
