Tonyin TB05A Magic Clay Pad — machine clay pad for paint decontamination, 5″ / Ø130 mm

Tonyin TB05A Magic Clay Pad

The TB05A is the 5-inch version of Tonyin's Magic Clay Pad, a machine-mounted tool for removing bonded surface contamination from automotive paint. Tonyin describes the pad as attaching to a dual-action (DA) polisher with hook-and-loop technology and as a faster alternative to traditional detailing clay. The manufacturer describes it as gentle on automotive paint; always work on a clean surface with suitable lubrication and test first on delicate or repainted finishes. The exact TB05A package and supplier line give a diameter of about 130 mm and a thickness of 15.2 mm. The 6-inch TB05B is a separate model and is not included here.

How to use

1. Wash and rinse the vehicle first, removing loose grit. Work on a cool, clean panel and follow the clay-lubricant label.
2. With the polisher switched off, center the pad on a compatible 5-inch hook-and-loop backing plate and confirm it is secure. Do not use a backing plate larger than the pad.
3. Apply clay lubricant to the working face and a small area of paint. Keep both surfaces well lubricated throughout; do not use the pad dry.
4. Work one small section at a time with light pressure and steady movement. Do not dwell in one spot. Stop if the pad catches debris or the finish changes; test an inconspicuous area first on delicate, repaired or coated paint.
5. Rinse the working face under clean, lukewarm water between panels as recommended by the exact retailer listing, then continue only when it is free of trapped grit.

After use and specifications

Rinse the pad after the job and let it air-dry naturally with the working face upward. The retailer advises against chemical cleaners for the pad. The holder/backing plate and clay lubricant are separate accessories, not stated as included with the pad. MPN: TB05A. Size: 5 inches / approximately Ø130 mm; thickness 15.2 mm.
