I prefer either Clay Magic or Mothers, i find the Meg's product a little on the sticky side, often leaving residual matter.......

clay magic is awsome and cheaper than the others. works real good. the surface on the trunk where the ACURA letters felt kinda rough, i used clay magic and it was smooth again. takes off all bug marks on front bumper to.

If you have a local crafts store, I suggest forgetting the brand name stuff and get some oil-based (non-drying) modeling clay. I've been using it for about three years now (on my ES300 and my new TL) and it only costs $3-4 for 2 packs. That is probably equal to 3-4x the amount contained in the brand name containers. Use a mixture of water and an automobile soap (your choice) in a spray bottle and you're in business.
