Best Clay Mitt: Reviewed and Ranked

A clay mitt pulls embedded contaminants — rail dust, industrial fallout, tree sap mist, overspray — out of your clear coat that washing alone can't touch. Run your hand over a freshly washed panel; if it feels like fine sandpaper instead of glass, it's time to clay. Mitts are faster and more forgiving than traditional clay bars (drop one and it's still usable), and they glide better with a slick lubricant. Always pair with a dedicated clay lube or a generous spray detailer — never run it dry.
