no, actual clay. now not just silly putty or some kindergarten stuff. go to your auto parts store and get clay, i bought mine off of griots garage's website. i don't know about rubbing compounds, i used some once to clean a boat and it was tricky, i don't think i'd feel comfortable using it on my car unless i knew EXACTLY what i was doing, has a tendency to stain if your not careful.
the clay however is very easy to use, granted it takes a long ass time, but its worth it.

I use mostly ardex products. I usually just use spray wax wen I clay cars... works fine for me. Ive used soapy water too. You wax it after youre done anyway, so its gonna be shiny. After i bought my car, i clayed it real quick before I took the buffer to it. Helped a lot.
