I've got a Turtle Wax product that comes in a can for about $2. It works perfectly...even on those weeks when I don't get around to washing the car. After a couple weeks of baking the bugs and fresh road debris into the clear coat, it still comes off beauitfully. Got mine from Pepboys, but it comes in a white can (16oz I believe) with blue lettering. Check bottom shelf.

I used claybar and I wasn't thoroughly impressed. A lot of ppl here use it and love it...I guess it was b/c I didn't wax after. I didn't have enough time.

A clay bar works well. Just make sure you are up to waxing your car when you are finised.
