Clay bars are good for cleaning the surface but a lot of work don't drop it better to cut it into smaller pieces when it is dirty you have to knead it to sort of resurface it and you will need to put wax on afterwards. If not convinced try it on a small part and see.

I would not say a good way to start and clean, but more like the last thing to do before applying a good wax finish. It will not remove scratches or anything like that but will remove small ingrained dirt particles etc.
To see the difference makes try polishing your car and running your hand over the paint work first, then use the clay. Polish again and run your hand over it again, you will be amazed at the difference.
It is actually very quick and easy to do, as long as you use the spray that comes with the clay bar.

to really feel the differance....take the plastic packet on the outside of a cigarette packet off and then put your fingers inside of it, then put some soapy water on the paint work and run your fingers over the paintwork. do the same after you've used a claybar and the differance is very noticable. i find my hands being as rough as they are after 20 years working in construction, that it's isn't as noticable when feeling with bare hands alone.
got a mate who is a car detailer, he did that with me last Friday night to show me what my Cruisers paint work is like at the moment.
