I use a diluted ONR (Optimum No Rinse) mixture for clay lube. You can also use clay lube. I have pretty much stopped using clay in favour of an Auto Scrub. You can get an Auto Scrub in pad form (for use with a DA), towel form, and even wash mitt. They are quicker and easier to use with the same results as clay. They last longer than clay making them cheaper in the long run.

Be careful using clay or products that do the same job as clay on your car, the paint is soft and black will show marring easily.
