you can pick it up at Autozone or any Auto parts store pretty much... in the car detaling and washing section... the instructions are right on the package... some kits bring the spray but you dont really need it if you are already gonna wash the car... it doesnt take long... you just rub on the car you will know when its doing its job.. just rub it on you will feel a little catch on the paint when you first use it as you progress with the rubbing you will notice there isnt much of holding effect anymore thats when you move on... just kind of like waxing your car... you can do it before you wash your car but rinse of all the dirt first so it doesnt make it harder or make the clay dirtier then the car will already be wet for you... when you are done just wash your car... and wax... youre car will feel twice as smooth... its good if you get over spray on your car too... I know alot of folks spray paint parts next to their vehicles without realizing that there is over spray getting on there... dont forget to frequently turn it and play with it like silly putty as you use it...
