A clay mitt typically has a synthetic clay material on its surface.

This synthetic clay is designed to be gentle yet effective in removing contaminants from the surface of a vehicle without causing scratches.

It works similarly to traditional clay bars but offers the convenience of being handheld and easier to use, especially for larger surface areas.

If you're looking for a detailing product that provides smooth results without marring the surface, a clay mitt with synthetic clay is a good choice.
