I see from time to time people asking about claybars and what it really does and if they will see any benefit from it.
I have seen clay remove contamination from a brand new car. I have also seen clay completely revive the surface of cars that you would have thought needed a good sanding.
I am by no means an expert and this is not a complete how-to.
There are tons of great websites out there to help.
Claying does take caution and can actually induce defects.
Black is a bit particular about getting clayed and should be approached with caution.
You may want to do the "Baggie" test to see if your car needs to be clayed.
Put your hand in a baggie and lightly brush it over the surface of a clean car.
If you feel grit, then it would be beneficial to clay prior to any further detailing work.
In the video below you will see a 2000 Corvette with about 50,000 miles. The shot is taken from the left side of the car looking at the front fender and accross the top of the hood. In the video, the fender has been clayed and the hood has not been clayed. The whole car felt (and sounded) like what you are about to hear. The horizontal panels were terrible.
