for some reason my pinnacle clay is sticking to the car instead of gliding over the paint. I can't seem to get the clay off now. I am using Meguiars Detailing spray that is left over from my meguiars clay bar kit. what the hell is wrong with the clay? I literally doused the car in quick detailer to make sure that it wasn't a lack of lubrication that caused this, the clay is still sticking to the car. They clay was used once before this on my car but worked fine.
 
Either it's a lack of lubrication (as hard as it may be to believe) or the car is severely contaminated. I'd try mixing up some QEW/water for lube, and dousing the car with that.
 
Or maybe that clay/lube combo just doesn't work well. I've never used Pinnacle clay, but the clays I have used all had lubes that they really did/didn't work well with.
 
with the amount of lubrication that you say that your using, its more than likely a very contaminated surface. just go slowly and you should be fine even if it is sticking.
 
yea i did end up picking up a ton of crap of the car with the clay. It was an expedition, and I used the whole clay up on that truck, and once on my car, so yea, lots of stuff on the paint. I was worried how I would get the clay off, but AIO worked great.
 
Try using a different lube. You can try a few drops of car wash shampoo in a spray bottle filled with water.
