Clay Magic leaves the surface feeling unreal. Smoother/cleaner then when it was brand new.

Default I don't get how to use clay bar...

I have the Zaino one, and i spray a mix of the Zaino wash/water onto the surface and rub the bar over, but sometimes it sticks and leaves little prints on the car... any tips?

You have to keep it wet all the time - also keep kneading the clay often, it will work better
