my car has a clay bar wax. Will this work without spotting?

The use of clay bar on a vehicle and the use of wax are generally two different functions. But if you follow the directions (and we have a nice how-to video at http://www.mothers.com) you will not get water spotting.

Will this wash/wax discolor a black convertible top? Maybe turning it white because of the wax?

More than likely it was starting to fade so they either used a black wax if metal or a dye if a ragtop and this wash is removing that coating

Is it partef to add water or full strenght

Add water it's super concentrated

Does it work for matte finished paint?

It can depend on the process used to create the matte finish, but generally yes, especially if it is a factory finish (aftermarket/custom finishes and wraps can vary in process and reaction). Use it as instructed. Do not let dry before rinsing or a wax residue may form and you will have to re-wash. If there is an issue, it should wash away or clear away with an instant detailer. Often a wash without wax like our California Gold Car Wash may be recommended for flat finishes, but matte should be okay with this product. With any product and a non-glossy or specialty finish, use it on a test spot first. Questions? jimd@mothers.com
