AutoGlym Claybar kit - any good?

[Casa1862]

I've a Solid Black Lexus IS300h which is just over two years old, the paintwork is not looking great and what I've noticed that when it gets bird poo on it, it's really difficult to remove and leaves a mark, it's almost as if nothing is protecting the paintwork.

I'm think of using the AutoGlym Claybar kit to give it a good clay and clean, it comes with the clay, spray and polish, doesn't come with a wax, anyone recommend a good wax for a 1st timer?

Thanks for the replies, it was a leased car that I owned from new, I sent it back perfect and when I purchased it back after bca had it stored the paint was really poor, no idea what they did in the three months they had it. The petrol cap was full of mud so I assume it sat in some field and got caked in mud, obviously didn't clean it with much care. Now, any bird poo just leaves a mark even if removed within minutes.

Maybe clay is not the answer, a decent wax maybe. The autoglym kit seemed relatively inexpensive and had all items apart from final wax. Might need to think again.

I'm a bit confused now, would a relatively new car not benefit from a Clay? Having never done this before, I thought the AutoGlym product would be a good starter kit as I don't have any decent products already, would the process be :

Wash, clay (with suitable detailing lubricant), wash, polish (such as Autoglym Resin polish) then a final Wax.

I was under the impression that polish a wax was the same thing!!!

Alternatively, would be to use a decent paint conditioner and wax only?

finally, any idea how much it would cost to get it done, I'm in the Herfordshire/Bedfordshire area.
