I bought one of the gray bars to try last year but still haven't gotten around to it yet. I'll have to find where it went and give it a go.

Doesn't Clay magic make pretty much every clay bar in the US?

Not sure what your definition of bulk is but....

If you are in the U.S., we offer a Professional Clay that is 200 grams for approx $30.00...

Meguiar's Professional Clay

+1 on staying away from the gray bars. You get what you pay for in this case. It really mars the paint and disintegrates while you are using it.

+1 I had area that needed polishing badly anyway so I gave them a go to experience first hand what people say about them marring. Yup, people were right.

Re: buying clay bars in bulk

Odd as this sounds, one of the best ways I've found to get clay for cheap is to go down to my local WalMart and pick up one of the new Meg's Quick Clay kits. I get 2 small bars, the QD, and a Supreme Shine MF towel for ~$16 (why they're selling them that cheap, I have NO idea). It's not the pro grade blue clay that Meg's offers (which I have found to be more aggressive than the stuff that comes in the clay kit), so it does take longer to clay a car, but if I'm in a pinch and the local PBE store is out of the tub of Meg's clay, I can use that instead, as my local Walmart seems to always have it in stock.
