Never really clayed my car before, so bare with me.
Obv I can really only use 2 sides of the bar, top and bottom, but I have done about 1/4 of my car and the bottom of the bar is brown.
Obv thing is to turn it over and use the other side.
But I will still end up having both sides fairly brown and still have some of the car to clay
Do you use the dirty side of the bar?

It was in a PM One of the ones when you asked me to advise everything you'd need for a thorough clean routine and how to do it.

You used the whole bar in one go  One bar should do the car several times. I've used mine about 3 or 4 times and only used half of it
You'll want to wax it as well to keep the shine btw.

A bar should do a car. i wouldnt use clay on my car more then once, once its soiled its soiled and you dont want to rub it back into your paint & scratch it, i wrecked half a bar on the bottom half of the golf as i knew it would be bad, then half again on the top half as its usually not that bad
orange one was rich H's and aggressive as fook, green one was a softer sonus one used for above the bump strips, wings, bonnet etc! You should only need to clay 2-3 times a year IMO, ovviously depends where you are, what the roads are like etc.

Clay is fine more than once.
That orange one doesn't look like you used intensive tar remover or anything first, waste of time going straight for the clay imo.
