No. Rubbing compound will remove layers of clear coat and paint.

A claybar simply pulls contaminants off your paint and strips wax.

what he said^^^^ rubbing compound will horribly mess up your paint if you dont know what you are doing. its much harder to mess up with a clay bar. and they both serve two completely different purposes.
