See: http://www.crest.org/discussiongroups/resources/stoves/Boyt/ceramics/ceramics1.html You could spend a lifetime studying clay and its uses. Clay is basically the stuff in dirt that is non-organic, and not sand and rocks. It is always associated with water, but dried-up lakes and streams are the best sources.

To add colour to clay, it is best to allow the clay to dry completely, crush it to a powder, mix the dry colour powder and then rehydrate. Wear a mask, clay dust is harmful.You can also add wet colours to clay slip, the hardest thing is adding colours to clay when it is plastic.Mostly however the clay is not coloured, instead you colour the pot using slips or glazes.

What happens when pressure is applied to clay?
Your question needs to be more specific for us to answer, for instance is the clay wet or dry, are you talking about geological formations of clay or a lump of potters clay. If you apply hand pressure to a lump of potters clay and the clay is wet it will squeeze (deform) between your fingers. If the clay is dry it will be too firm to deform by hand but if placed in a vice it will crack.......etc.
What is a good clay bar brand for regular use?
I have had nothing but good luck with Meguiars brand products. Meguiars offers a clay bar kit that comes with the clay bar, and a bottle of Meguiars quick detailer, which you spray on the surface of the vehicle before you use the clay. The quick detailer acts as a lubricant, and suspends contaminates to make cleanup easier.
