Autoscrub Surface Prep Pad Medium Grade Remove Embedded Contaminants

Crafted with a medium - density clay compound, this disc strikes the ideal balance between cleaning aggression and surface safety. It effortlessly lifts common embedded contaminants—like industrial fallout, brake dust, tree sap, and light road tar—that regular washes leave behind. Unlike Fine Grade clay discs or heavy - duty ones (which risk scratching delicate clear coats), the medium grade delivers thorough decontamination without compromising your vehicle’s finish.

Size: Our car detailing clay pad has different size for your choice, usually we get the magic clay pad at size: ∅150mm ∅130mm ∅80mm, but we can customize according to your requirement.

• Contaminant Removal: Its primary role is to eliminate embedded pollutants from a vehicle’s exterior, such as industrial fallout (tiny metal particles from brake dust), rail dust, tree sap, bird droppings, bug residue, and stubborn environmental grime. These contaminants, if left unaddressed, can etch into the paint over time, causing dullness or long-term damage. The clay pad’s texture allows it to "grab" and lift these particles without scratching the surface when used correctly.

• Surface Preparation: By smoothing the paint, glass, chrome, or plastic trim, clay pads create an optimal base for subsequent detailing steps. Whether applying wax, sealant, ceramic coating, or polish, a decontaminated surface ensures better adhesion of these products, enhancing their durability and the overall finish—resulting in a smoother, glossier appearance.

Compared to traditional clay bars, clay pads often offer greater durability and coverage due to their rigid yet flexible shape, making them efficient for larger surface areas. They also tend to be more user-friendly for beginners, as their flat design reduces the risk of uneven pressure application.

In essence, a clay pad is a versatile tool that bridges thorough cleaning and surface preparation, ensuring vehicles not only look their best but also receive long-term protection against environmental damage.

This clay product requires clay lubricant or pH-neutral car shampoo during use—never apply without.

• Avoid excessive operating speeds.
• Do not apply heavy pressure or side pressure.

• Never use under direct sunlight or high temperatures.
• For best results, use in an indoor, dust-free space.

Do not pair with the following chemical cleaners:

• All-purpose cleaners
• Bitumen (tar) removers
• Adhesive removers

• Rinse thoroughly with clean water after use.
• Allow to air-dry naturally.

• No Dry Use Always use with clean water—spray or keep surfaces wet while detailing to reduce friction.
• Avoid Hot Surfaces Never apply to sun - heated/hot vehicles. Heat speeds up lubricant evaporation, raising friction and risk of scratches.
• Test First (For Beginners) Practice on a hidden area (e.g., door jamb) to master pressure and technique before full use.
• Proper Storage After use, let the pad air - dry fully. Then store in a sealed container to prevent contamination or drying out.

Follow these to safely decontaminate your vehicle for a flawless finish.
