I think it`s hard to beat ONR as a clay lube, it`s cheap and works well.

I cannot see how anything could better ONR as a lube. Stuff is simply amazing.
Good driving and good listening!!
The maroon bottle Meguiars detailer that you can buy at the local car parts store is still my favorite clay lube, although it seems to be getting harder to find. The maroon bottle is also one of my favorite spray bottles. I keep them for other products after the QD is gone. It has a very uniform, tight spray pattern.
Sage advice from Greg Nichols: "Hey, Supe? When you`re trying to get the air bubble out of your syringe of Opti-Coat, don`t point it at your face, mmmkay?"
Interesting. I have a bottle of this I haven`t used in ages. I`ll have to break it out again. Thanks, Bee.

However, if the car is *not* going to be polished afterward, then using the correct lube/clay combination is necessary to reduce clay induced marring to the minimum possible. On soft paints, the Sonus fine green clay and the maroon bottle Megs QD is a great combination. There`s lots of other good combos, too, of course.

I`ve been using ONR as my clay lube for a while now, but I may try water with my yellow clay (Which is GREAT stuff, IMO).

Yes I can see how certain soft paints might need some more care, however in general when someone tries to give this idea that clay lube is an "essential" product I tend to laugh. Any cheap QD/ONR/soap mix will work.
