Yes you should. Mothers will work just fine. Clay is clay, except for meguiars, that stuff blows! Just keep the paint well lubricated. I used Zaino, so I didn't want the spray wax on the paint, so I lubricated the clay and paint with car wash soap mixed with water in a spray bottle. The same goes if you use Klasse. That pinnacle stuff is probably really expensive, which really isn't worth it.
