Have you tried clay bar again in a small area to see if there's any improvement on 2nd attempt? If that doesn't work I would move on to a cleaner wax such as CLICK HERE. There is also a liquid version of this stuff.
Body shops and pro detailers have access to much better stuff that treat things like what has happened to your car. Basically a good cleaner wax and an orbital polisher and somebody experienced with an orbital polisher should do the trick. They are basically removing the smallest possible layer of clear coat that has the imbedded contaminates within it. When this gets done by a unknowingly diy'er the clear coat can be damaged very easily. This same approach can applied to swirls and small scratches within the clear coat as well. Once damage gets past the clear coat then paint repair of some sort is needed. I would remain optimistic that you can get this back to where you want it.
