What SG said would most probably be what he meant, clay it made of abrasives that are pretty much like rubbing compound turned into a clay texture, but since its able to mold and re-shape itself it takes a lot of its abrasiveness away it is only abrasive unto rough part and spots on the paint, one thing you would notice when trying to clay off a paint transfer would be that while your claying the paint over spray or transfer it slowly wears off pretty much like wet sanding but the other parts that are smooth are left unharmed just the part which stands out are getting abraded, and thats also why its great for removing on top of the paint bonded contaminants and requires a lot of lubrication.
