so i left my shammie out in the sun and it ruined so
after washing i didnt know what to do so i just dried as much as i could and started to wax
the wax got harder and took longer to take off
but the look afterwards was deeper and was amazing
just thought id tell you guys
would this be similar to a wet wax

Autozone carries a clay magic kit. It's a 100 gram bar with clay lube for $12. I just picked on up andit worksgreat. Thats about the best deal that I've found. Obsessive detail also carries a clay bar that is 200 grams and costs $24 which is a darn good deal too.

The Meguiars Smooth Surface Kit is my favorite one out there.

Skitso, as mentioned above I carry an 8 oz. clay bar which is double or triple the size that you can get over the counter. I also have a kit with the clay lube included. As a member here you get a 10% discount on products on accessories on my website.
As far as the Wet Wax, my wax is a liquid wax that you wipe on and then buff off with a microfiber towel. You might be thinking of one of those spray waxes that you put on while drying, those aren't very good quality at all.

i think thats what some people refer to as "spit shine". they spray water on the car as they are waxing. it gives you a deeper look, but i dont think it provides as much protection. and the best OTC clay bar i have found is the clay magic kit at autozone. as someone said earlier, its only like $11-12, and it works very well. i havent tried justins clay yet, but im sure its very good quality too.

Here's a link about spit shining. I've used this method a couple of times but only for car shows. Its alot of work but the end result is pretty awesome.
