- The Future Of Automotive Clay Is Here… And It’s GOOD! Claying is an important decontamination step to remove harmful particles and dirt from your car’s paint. Clay bars remove contaminants that a regular wash leaves behind. But there has been an evolution to the traditional clay bar, and you’ll learn everything about it in this video!

Most cars and trucks have tiny contaminants embedded in their paint’s clear coat and a regular car wash will not remove those. Those contaminants can include dirt, grime, brake dust, rail dust, industrial pollution, paint overspray, tree sap and more.
A clay bar will gently pull and lift the bonded contaminants off the surface and leaves the paintwork feeling smooth like glass, ready for polishing or the application of a wax or sealant.
These days, we use synthetic clay media, which isn’t as abrasive as traditional automotive clay, to decontaminate your car’s paint safely and quickly. Synthetic clay lasts much longer, you don’t have to throw it away if you drop it. Just rinse, and reuse. And it’s much gentler on the surface, as it doesn’t contain any abrasives, so less chances of marring the paint’s surface when claying using a synthetic perforated clay media.

I'm a big fan of your reviews, I was wondering if you could do one on 303's 3 step paint correction?
I bought a Maguires clay sponge recently and they are amazing,i clayed my whole car in around 2 hours and it came up as good as using a traditional clay bar. The best thing about these clay sponges is the contaminants wash straight out and you get many more uses out of one than a clay bar.
The time and effort you put into producing these videos is very much appreciated, Pan thank you 🙏
I appreciate that!
Def have to agree with Bob!@@PanTheOrganizer
EXTREEEMLEY informative; thank you! I was taught how to clay bar almost over a decade ago by my uncle (but didn't know about micro-marring from it till much much later). Saw some of these coming out recently...but was stuck in my ways a bit (also b/c had a fresh clay bar in package still). This video has converted me for next year when I clay my car and the family car; these just sound like the best of most.
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic video.Thanks so much, again, for all of your expertise!!
Thank you!
Always very in-depth reviews and tips. Thanks for your work Pan.
Glad you like them!
Awesome video sir, only time I use the clay bar is for overspray remover when the towels aren’t as aggressive enough. Appreciate ya going through all of it
Thanks!
I'm watching this video from London UK. Another absolutely fantastic video. More of these videos PLEASE.
Thanks!
Pan, This is really impressive advancement on the synthetic side of car detailing. Certainly a time saver and especially when used on a ceramic coating...Look forward to trying this out..
Thanks for watching Edmond!
This video was informative and worth watching again. I have been using the DIY perforated synthetic decontamination towel for a year and wow does it work. Only once did I have to bring out the Rag Company clay bar for a heavily contaminated vehicle. A fun fact about the DIY iron remover is how well it cleans too. On a job once I was on the platform ladder and noticed heavy contamination where the windshield and glass meet as this had not been cleaned in over ten years. I did not want to get down the ladder so I sprayed DIY iron remover into a detail brush and this instantly cleaned the heavily contaminated paint. Ceramic Gloss used with the clay n seal along with DIY rinseless wash is money. I do like the smaller clay mitt from the Rag Company for cleaning the glass on the interior side and I need to pick one up. Thank you for another cutting edge video Pan!
Thanks for the feedback Neil! I hope you'll have a great weekend!
Thank you 😊
Excellent breakdown and explanation of all these new perforated clay towels and how they can be used. Most comprehensive video I’ve seen so far on this topic. Lots of good tips.
I’ve become a big fan of using the new Rag Company clay blocks and towel with DIY iron remover as per this video. Works amazing and huge time saver. Haven’t tried clay & seal yet so will try that next. Once Carzilla gets the DIY towel in stock I’ll for sure be purchasing.
Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you
I wish I would have thought about the folding method when I first got my UCT. I recently picked up the scrubber back in June when was visiting TRC and absolutely love it but you definitely have a point, the towel is still a crucial tool for those hard to reach spots because of the flexibility.
👍🏻
super video. La decon 2 in 1 est une belle technique. J'avais un pré-sentiment que ca allait venir ce video hihi. bonne fin de semaine!
:) Et il y a en aura d'autres sous peu... Avec un invité spécial. ;)
I used the Adams clay mitt on my car and it worked great!
Hi Pan a great and very informative video as always, thanks for the tips on using the clay media and the different sealants, I have some P&S Bead Maker and a clay mitt so I'm definitely going to give it a go 👍👍
Thanks!
Pan, thank for another Great and Informative video. I'll definitely be getting a few of these items to use in different ways to make my autos, RV and motorcycle clean and shiny....Thank you!
Thanks!
Yasou Pan,
Thank you for another great video! I have a 2014 Chevy Malibu which has Never been decontaminated. I did the “plastic baggie “ test and it feels like sandpaper after I washed it. I started using P&S Absolute rinse less car wash after watching your videos along with the laser cut sponge, etc.
I am confused about which DIY products to use with the DIY clay towel and have the following questions:
1. Which is the order to use the DIY products - do I use the DIY Iron Remover first and/or instead of or I do I use the DIY Ceramic Gloss?
2. What is the difference between the DIY Quick Beads vs the DIY Ceramic Gloss?
3. Would it be possible if you do a demonstration on these products? I learn so much watching you and explaining your expertise “tips and tricks!”
Thank you,
NIKOS
A local Australian company Bowden’s Own has a claying rubber block that also works pretty well 👍🏻
Very helpful and timely for me. One thing I found out the hard way is do not machine wash a synthetic clay product. Even using microfiber friendly cleaning products, the clay gets destroyed. Rinse and air dry only!
Thanks for sharing!
Just in time, I need this for my brand new car. I wasn't sure how good this product would be, but if I avoid scratching it... it's a win. I still had unopened clay but I can use that on my old junker.
I've been waiting for this topic to be covered in detail. I'm not comfortable using a clay bar and wasn't sure about using a clay mitt or towel, or which one's to use. This has clarified things, so thank you Pan.
Detailing isn't complicated once you get the basics right. I highly recommend that you watch my Detailing 101 series for beginners, where I explain different steps like iron removers, clay bar, polishing, protection, etc. It's super simple once you understand the basics, and your car will look and feel 100x better!

If you use a clay towel, do not forget to prime it by scrubbing a wet windshield with it first! Then remember that you are NOT supposed to apply any pressure at all against the paint.
After watching your last video, Diy Detail is my new go to range of products. Thanks for all the advice from the UK 👍
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you.
30th 😂love rag company scrubber mitt. Picked it up in Chicago. Thank you Pan! Have a wonderful weekend!!!
Awesome!
Thank you for the detail explanation. I like the last part of the video where you mentioned about claying and sealing. This would really help motivate me to take care of my car and not feel bad spending hours away from my family.
Glad it was helpful!
Just watching another past video of yours on the P&S Bead Maker…. How would you compare P&S Bead maker to Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray? I had watched your previous vide and learned about Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic spray and have used it since. But after watching your yesterdays video, i am curious about P&S. I’m a weekend DIYer and by no means an expert but LOVE to keep my car shinny smooth, water beading results and of course gain time back.
You can’t compare both products. Bead Maker is just a regular paint sealant. Not ceramic. It doesn’t last that long (3-4 weeks in general). Where it excels is for gloss and slickness. So we use it as a maintenance topper over existing protection.
The Turtle Wax Hybrid Solutions Ceramic Spray Coating is a long term ceramic based protection. If you apply two layers, 24 hrs between layers, it can last 8-9+ months.
So you don’t use the Turtle Wax for regular weekly washes. But you could use Bead Maker after each wash as a drying aid if you wanted.
@@PanTheOrganizer got it. As always, thanks for the explanation.
As with most car detailing products, the evolution is on the way!! Thanks for yet another informative video Pan, ...keeping us up to date on the evolution. Years ago, you did a video on claying kitchen counter granite. Would you stick (hmm) to the clay bar application for granite, or move along to mitts, scrubbers or pads here too?
I never made a video on claying granite lol. Did you mean cleaning granite countertops? You don’t use clay on granite hehe.
Another great instructional video, thanks Pan.
Glad you enjoyed it!

Pan- you crush it every time- thank you for another great video!
Ah thanks man! I appreciate the support! Let's go!
I use the clay and seal method in my shop all the time using beadmaker and a clay mitt. Pan's advice on the mitt in terms of speed is spot on. You can go a lot faster and not sacrifice the quality of the outcome.
Well said! Thanks for watching man!
Hi, love Pan's videos. Since you mentioned you use the clay and seal method was wondering if you could explain how to do it. I'm a do it yourself'er and love working on my cars and then sit back after a long day and admire them!
Thanks!!
@@JohnReynolds123 p&s have a great video with Pan showing how to use beadmaker as a clay lube but essentially you spray the clay mitt or panel, then glide across the panel with light pressure until it feels smooth. Then use your drying towel to dry the area you've worked on.
Glad this came out when it did I've been looking at the rag company options
Thanks for watching!
Hey pan! Thanks for the recommending me to watch this video. Loved the explanation about how you can Clay and seal with these towels. Also, it doesn’t harm any of your protectants placed on the vehicle! Skeptical at first but I’m excited to use them.
These towels won't hurt ceramic coatings. But for waxes and sealants, you'll have to test and see. Coatings are much tougher than regular waxes and sealants.
@@PanTheOrganizer thanks for explaining! I’ll make sure to check it out.

Thank you. We haven’t tested with Iron X, do a test spot.
@@PanTheOrganizer I sure did Pan!! I'm always looking to help anyway I can
@@diydetailofficial ok will do
Pan, thanks for the great information! I will be getting the DIY clay towel to use on my vehicles. I purchased the traditional clay bars and tried it in an inconspicuous area and messed it up. So I did not clay bar my truck. I had to get the buffer out to correct the spot! I really do value you and appreciate all the awesome information you give us. I am not a professional and only work on my personal vehicles. I just like them done right. I have tried several detailers, but was never satisfied with their work! My wife says no one cleans a car like it do! I tell her “You have to watch Pan! He is WAY better than I am!” 😎 keep up the great work and stay safe!

Thanks for the tip on how to break in the synthetic clay towels.
Thanks for watching!
I've used the rag Company Ultra Clay Mitt. I couldn't figure out how to clean it. After watching your video, I'll try APC and a microfiber to clean.
I learned something new. Thank Pan! I’ll be buying a clay towel for my ceramic coated car.
You always learn something new by watching my videos. Let's go! :)
hello! i love youre videos and im learning so much from every video that i watch! would you do this process everytime you wash a car?
No you only clay when the paint needs it, meaning when you feel contamination/grit in the paint. If you haven’t clayed your car in over six months, most likely it needs it.
Also, I highly recommend that you watch my Detailing 101 series for beginners, where I explain different steps like iron removers, clay bar, polishing, protection, etc. It's super simple once you understand the basics, and your car will look and feel 100x better!

Thank you kindly
The towel is so amazing!! By far my favorite so easy to work with
👍🏻
So will these allow more often claying/decontamination without removing paint protection without needing to polish or compound after use like traditional clay media? I know you mentioned it some but some clients cars always have tons of new tar or the little fallout dots that still stick to the ceramic coating
Hey Pan! Awesome video as always! Do you have a preferred ceramic booster/topper?
Thanks Josh. Of course I have my favourite picks. I have a popular annual car detailing products awards series where I highlight my top picks in each category. This year's edition was recently launched here: ua-cam.com/video/KRv7vKsuliQ/v-deo.htmlsi=wa655Pe9PqwoMPY8
I have a DIY towel coming in the mail so this is very timely and informative thank you
My pleasure!
Thank you.
I’ve used Chemical Guys Clay sponge. It worked pretty well in my limited experience for decontaminating my glass to apply a sealant.

Yes but test on an inconspicuous area first.
Towel and iron decon step is a great idea. And I also love Towel and Bead maker seal!

Great Video Thanks! Wondering if I can use the Adams new iron remover with the Rag Company towel?
I don’t know all the possible combinations unfortunately. You have to make sure to use an iron remover that doesn’t have any solvents in it.
I was at the bays yesterday, me and Ken were talking about these towels.
I find the clay bar and the towel hard to grab, Ive drop them many times... and the autobfiber clay towel broke on me twice. I will try the mitt or the bigger foldable towel for better handling.
I'd love to see and hear more about a chemical and mechanical decontamination. I currently have some nanoskin mitts and have been tempted to try a bit of an all in one go waterless wash, chemical decontamination and mechanical decontamination to save some time.
I highly recommend that you watch my Detailing 101 series for beginners, where I explain different steps like iron removers, clay bar, polishing, protection, etc. It's super simple once you understand the basics, and your car will look and feel 100x better!

Hi Pan, thanks for a very useful video. Have been put off using a clay bar due to the marring issue, and potentially creating another job (machine polishing). The DIY detail towel is out of stock at my usual supplier here in the UK. Quite pricey at £35.
Yeah those sell out quickly!
Value vs price.
Another fantastic video! Hopefully you can visit here in the Philippines to seminar about interior and exterior detailing and of course to see and meet you personally. Godbless always Pan and more success to your channel.
Thanks for your continued support of my channel Eleazar!
Hello Pan!! Thank you for all the content you have created, it has been a great help for my project to start my car detailing business in the coming months, I have a question, using the clay towel and iron remover to decontaminate the paint together is not a process abrasive right? So it is not necessary to use a polishing machine before applying any spray sealant or ceramic coating?
In theory, quality synthetic clay towels and mitts like the ones linked shouldn’t cause any marring. But test on an inconspicuous area first.
Great content, as always! Always air dry these "clay" side up, correct?
Correct.
Used to use a clay bar, now I use the scrubber . It works great!
Thanks for sharing Rob!
These synthetic clay products make the process so much quicker. I don’t reach for a traditional clay bar very often anymore. I use TRC clay scrubbers.
Same here! I pretty much have no need for traditional clay bars anymore.
What a useful video! Thanks Pan 🙂
I did no detailing for several years... Great to see that claying has been made way easier and versatile.
As it avoids scratching the clear coat, I guess if I want to renew a wax, there is no more need of polishing after mechanic decontamination, right?
For a ceramic, it's a very simple prep to maintain it every 2 or 3 months.
Thanks 🙏🏻

After claying, even if it's with a synthetic perforated decontamination towel, still inspect your paint and see if it needs polishing. If it looks good to you, you can skip polishing and apply your wax.

Thanks for all the superb information from all your videos,I was wondering if any of these products can remove suncream hand print stains on car paint??
No. These are just meant to decontaminate the paint from embedded contamination.
Thanks for all your videos! all of them are awesome!
Quick question, can i use Meguiars iron remover with DIY Clay Mitt?
I don’t know all the possible combinations, so you’d have to do some research. You need an iron remover that doesn’t contain solvents, if you want to use it like a clay lube with a perforated synthetic decontamination towel.

@@PanTheOrganizer thank you! Will keep on looking on what to use as a clay lube then
Learned something new and these are surprisingly affordable!
👍🏻
very useful thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I have that blue Rag Company clay towel, I've used it 3 times and used It each time with clay lube while the vehicle was wet and soapy and it made a lot of marring. Had to do a 2 step correction as a result.
I've experienced the same results with the rag co scrubber and won't use it again
Ha ha perfect timing. I have to admit i have been slacking & still using the clay. Will be getting this. Tks again pan! 👍🏼🇨🇦
You got this!
Love it Pan, in everyones opinion, what cloth would be better on a car that has low contamination, the DIY detail one or the TRG one ?
The DIY Detail towel has a finer grade according to DIY, so that would be my first pick for a well maintained vehicle, should you need to clay the surface. Here's a link: bit.ly/3O8D5AS
Thank you Pan.
You bet!
Thanks for the update; I prefer the mitt.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Pan! I just wanted to ask at 11:17 , the DIY microfiber clay towel, when cleaning them you said we can dunk them in our wash bucket. What if the soap inside our wash bucket at some point are high PH shampoo, is it still okay to dunk them in there?
Hi Pan
I just received my Ultra Clay Towel & Bead Hero.
1.What is the purpose of initial use on glass with Clay lubric ant.
2.Using Clay Towel on car what lubricant should I use? Soapy water or Maguiars Quick Detailer?
Great video, Pan. Lots of useful and necessary information. I take care of my car myself. I would like to ask, can I use Clay Towel and CarPro IronX Snow Soap? Is this option safe?
It's impossible to know all the combinations known to man, so you'd have to test for yourself and see.
Great video as usual! , I have a question for you Pan: Can these clay towels remove waterspots? Thanks
Thanks. For water spots, it really depends on how bad they are. You can certainly start by washing and claying and see if that works. From there you can also use a water spot remover.
See if those work. If the spots are still there, it means the minerals started etching through the clear coat and you’ll need to step up the level of aggression to machine polishing. Beyond that it’s wet sanding or a panel respray.
It’s a case by case scenario. Do testing and see what works.
I love these style videos! Always jammed packed with great information. I also love the new clay towels compared to the old style clay bars. So more affective and easier to use! I love the feeling of my car once I have performed this step! I love being that guy that has the shiniest/Slickest car! Thank you my friend for always a good job explaining how to do this properly 👏💦✨
Thanks Danny! And yes I also like a "smooth like glass" surface!
@@PanTheOrganizer I have family members always comment on how clean and shiny ✨ my car looks! It makes my Day!
😁👍🏻
Nv snow + is what Sandro loves to use when claying. I've made the mistake of tar remover and clay towel... lmao 😅 by accident of course.
👍🏻
I’ve been waiting for someone to cover clay towels!
It's like I read your mind! :)
Pan, my Jeeps want me to thank you for teaching me about detailing. Especially clay mats!
Cheers!
Diy detail 's towel is very good as well.
Yes, hence why I mentioned it in the video, and put a link to it as well. ;)
Thank you
Can you make a video about what typical ingredients are in detail sprays for example and what sets them apart from each other. Than you can do that with waxes. Rather than just say this one has better slickness which who knows. Btw you should cover more optimum products i feel they are the best on the market
Thank you Pan🤗🤗🤗👌
You bet!
Gonna pick up the DIY clay towel and maybe the quick beads to do this. Might use the Iron Remover too. First time claying, so excited. Will let you know how it goes.
Quick Beads isn't meant to be used as a clay lube. It's a spray on rinse off sealant. If you want to do a "clay and seal" type thing, the DIY Detail Ceramic Gloss is a better option.
See a video I made with Yvan from DIY Detail, where we show the "clay and seal" steps: ua-cam.com/video/WQH_RVOtrRA/v-deo.htmlsi=b86czyu8bLUiiYPN
If you want to use Quick Beads, you'd have de wash the car first, then do the decon step with the DIY Detail decon towel and iron remover as clay lube (so you're also removing iron contamination at the same time), and then once you rinse, while the car is wet, you can spray Quick Beads, wait 30 seconds, and then rinse and dry the car.
@@PanTheOrganizer ok, thanks. Both ways are clear to me. I will decide which route to go. Do you have a preference? I get the spray on rinse off idea…I have used Meguirs hybrid ceramic wax, which is spray on rinse off after you’ve done the base coat. Should I choose the quick beads or ceramic gloss? Which one would you do?
Nice video!
Which clay towel (The Rag company or DIY detail) do you recommend for Toyota soft clearcoat?
Either or. They are almost identical in performance.
I’ve used that Adam’s clay mitt and iron x and Adam’s iron remover with good results, they mitt looks exactly like the one from TRC and McKees, packaging and all so I’d be my guess they come from the same place
Adams say's its medium grade tho, might work better/faster but also has a higher chance of marring.
Thanks for the video, you have shown me that I have been using my clay towel backwards haha
😂👍🏻
10 / 10, what is you opinion with clay bloc ?
THANK YOU!

You are most welcome.
Thanks for sharing this valuable information. Since it's not that abrasive, can it be applied on vinyl wrap？
I don’t deal with vinyl wrapped cars (not a popular option in my area) so you’d have to ask the place that did the wrap job.
Hello , Thank you for these videos they are very helpful. I have a 2023 vehicle that the dealership scratched up during washing it . I got them to pay for a 2 step correction without ceramic at a well known top detailing company which came out perfect not a single scratch left, but its been about 4 or 5 months and when I dry with micro towels they seem to resist so I think its time to seal with wax or some type of ceramic, but should I clay first ?
It depends if your paint needs claying or not. Wash the car, then rinse, then run your fingers on the panels especially the lower parts of the doors and bumpers. If you feel grit or contamination, it needs claying. If it feels glass smooth, you can skip claying.
But for sure, when a car is freshly polished, ALWAYS apply some sort of protection afterwards (wax, sealant or ceramic coating). You don't want to leave your clear coat exposed to the elements unprotected.
Love this update on clay towels, etc.
So many incredible products. I felt like a kid in a candy store! Can any of these remove mineral deposits on house and commercial glass? Your feedback please. Thanks.
Yes they can be used on exterior glass around homes and businesses too.
Which product, in your personal experience, is the best at easily removing water spots on home and commercial glass windows? Thank you, Pan. You're the man!
Also, are you related to Pan in Greek mythology?
I haven't really used water spot removers on home glass, as I don't have water spotting issues where I live.
And no I'm not related to Pan from the mythology haha. But I am half Greek.
My 15 yr old son is detailing to earn money and is quite good. This video will help. To save time he will need to decide whether to combine Decon and clay or ceramic spray and clay. I would recommend you look at and review technicians choice 582 ceramic spray. I’m sure you know it is quite popular and it works well as a combined clay, and finish at the same time.
Glad it was helpful!
Pan another great video. Question if I use the clay towel and sealant like DIY Beads, can I then apply a ceramic coating over all that such as Cerakote’s product you recently reviewed?
No. True ceramic coatings, the ones in little glass bottles, need to bond directly to a virgin clear coat, free of any previous protection. So you can't use anything that has protection in it while you wash, decontaminate and prep the surface for the coating application.
No shampoos with waxes in them, no quick detail sprays or drying aids after the wash, no sealants used as clay lubes, etc.
See my ceramic coating application tutorial: ua-cam.com/video/sqQYVjxFqK0/v-deo.html
@@PanTheOrganizer Thank you as always Pan. You amaze me how quickly and regularly you are able to reply to questions.
Thanks Pan
You're welcome
1 more great video. Thank you Pan.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Have you tried the Gyeon Iron Remover with the Clay Towel? I was advised it also works well, smells better and has lubricant.
I haven’t
Hey Pan, great video, can you use the towel to remove water stains? Also I assume you don’t need polishing after. Thanks
It depends how bad the water spots are. Always try the less aggressive methods first, and move up the ladder as needed until the spots disappear. If left unattended, water spots can start to etch through the clear coat and cause permanent damage. Levels of aggression:
1) wash the car
2) use a water spot remover
3) use a clay bar
4) machine polishing
5) water sanding
6) full panel respray
@@PanTheOrganizer Its a 3 i think, first two didn’t resolve the issue
Which products do you recommend for leather cleaning and conditioning?
Modern leather doesn’t need conditioners. It needs to be cleaned and protected against dye transfer, friction damage, UV rays, etc
Here are the leather care products that took first place in my most recent car detailing products awards video: ua-cam.com/video/YFqRpJhkqJw/v-deo.htmlsi=MO6JYPg-bC6InhXx
Grazie mille, Ottimo lavoro 👍🏻. Purtroppo in Europa sono articoli esauriti e non si riescono a trovare. Spero che TRCeurope li assortisca prima possibile. Grazie Pan😉
Grazie ciao!
Awesome video! Glad I watched this before I was about to clay my car 😂
Glad I could help!
You did not mention that Mothers makes a very good, reusable clay bar synthetic. I have used clay for years, then three years ago I switched to the Mothers Clay pad, fabulous. Works easily as well, semi firm surface, washable, and just works. Love your channel, and Turtle wax products covered. Thank-you
I don’t use Mothers products. Thanks for watching.

sorry, just confused on one thing you said. If I want to use the clay media and the sealant/protectant at the same time, won't it leave a residue or some of the product still on the surface that will then need wiped/buffed off with a towel? I am used to doing all my decontamination via washing, iron removal, washing again, then clay media rinsing or washing again and then dry with a final detail spray and wipe for final coating and gloss. thank you as always.
NanoSkin was one of the first few companies that came with up product clay mitts and clay towels! :)
Yea this video seems really late to the game. I just checked my Amazon purchase history, and I got my Nanoskin synthetic "clay" scrubber in May 2015. And they were already out in the market for maybe 1 year by the time I got mine.
