Default Clay Removal

USE THIS PRODUCT AT YOUR OWN RISK. I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR MISUSE OF THIS PRODUCT.


I have searched and searched and searched this forum, aside from exhausting Google, Altavista and the like, for tips on removing stubborn clay from my paint. I'm not talking about the clay you use to remove other crap from the paint, I'm talking about the driving your car in mountains hitting one freaking puddle that covers the whole side of your car in red clay type of clay. I have included a list of the different products that I have used that DO NOT remove this stuff.

Turtle Wax Bug and Tar Remover (gel and spray)
WD40
Meguiars Spray Detailer and Clay Bar
Plain ol' soap and water
Meguiar's Bug and Tar Remover

After using half my paycheck on detailing crap, I find a can of OOPS! under the kitchen counter. I applied it to a microfiber towel, and with light pressure and a few strokes later, the clay started to melt right off. I was up until 2:00 this morning going over whole car to make sure it is ready for the clay bar and a coat of wax.
