first clay

Since no one else wanted to take a stab at this, I thought I would. Basically, it depends. It depends on how dirty your car is. Of course, as we know, you fold it in half, twist it up and kneed it back out as you use it to get a clean surface. I guess you go until you don't really get a clean surface. If they car is very dirty (hadn't been clayed in a long time), you might only get one use. If you do it pretty often, you should get many uses out of it. I did my wife's 2 year old car which had never been clayed and my new car and the clay still looks fine.
And let us not forget the first rule of clay barring... if you drop the clay, throw it away.
BTW, your car looks great.

yea it depends on the amount of dirt it pulls off. With actual clay if the cars are not very dirty I would do the car about 3 times before I tossed it. I have moved away from clay to the synthetics now.
I use this now

I use the Fine grade one 90% of the time. They are super durable and you can get like 20-25 uses out of a sponge. All you need to do is rinse off after each panel in soapy water as you go. Plus unlike regular clay that if you drop you gotta throw it away this if you drop it just wash off and keep going. Also the speed I can do a car in almost half the time vs regular clay.

Thanks! This being it's first clay, it may have been relatively dirty. I'll use the bar one more time and then move on to a new one.
