Use of clay bars?

Sorry for my ignorance, but I can't learn without asking questions. Late last year, I bought a clay bar from Pep Boys or some place like that. I bought it because of a referral from someone.

Exactly what is the claybar for? I think it takes dirt off of the paint, but I'm not sure. How do I use it, and with what?? Is there some knid of lubricant that I use with it?

And, does the claybar remove all my wax; forcing me to apply a good, thick coat of wax??

I have read on Zaino's site, and a couple others. Does it really take all day to apply zaino? I don't have THAT long. Thanks for your help.

USe a lubricant like Mothers Showtime instant detailer adn use lots of it. Set plenty of time aside to clay, and yes it will remove all old wax, so you will have to reapply.

For lube, you can also mix car wash fluid with water instead of buying costly replacement lube.
