Wash Mitt Battle

[fly07sti]

I agree with BillyJack. My personal all around favorite is the Meg’s MF wash mitt. Ot too thin nor too thick. They wash up easy and just feel good when in use. I really like quality wool mitts but are a PITA to maintain. If I only had a couple of cars to take care of, it wouldn’t be an issue. As far as the noodle mitts, I have tried them many times over the years and I really dislike them. They just don’t seem to do a great job IMO.

And this is what makes the forum great IMO. (And maybe a bit confusing for newbies).

Different opinions on different products.

I miss the days when one could get wool mitts locally. I used to pick them like fruit, selecting only the softest I could find

I used a wool mitt (DoDo juice Wookie fist) years ago when I had my black BMW E90. That paint system was a nightmare. It would get scratch if I sneeze on it. It was the only mitt that didnt marred that paint at that time. And yes.... maintenance of the mitt was a bit of a chore..... I had to hand wash it, air dry it and brush it out every time after use to prevent matting.

Since then, I used Microfiber Madness and it is just as good as the wool without the all the work.

I still use those noodle thing but only on hammered paint that I will be working on.... especially on lower body panels and bumpers. Never for a maintenance wash.

I'm wondering if Chemical Guys pay Billy Joel royalties for that mitt, LOL

I was thinkin something totally different.....

I like these in any colors that Autogeek has on sale. I feel the MF is safer than the noodles and they glide more effortlessly.

I like them over wool because wool you gotta baby. Just throw these i. With a MF load in the wash.

The Rag Company Cyclone 10X wash pad and Cyclone Bone along with CarPro's wash mitt are my favorites. I don't really like using a mitt and prefer a pad, CarPro's mitt is a good compromise.

Just ordered a cyclone to try a couple of days ago. Been using a griots chenille for the last 12 years and with onr for about 9 of those, no issues whatsoever. First ‘real’ mitt was a meguiars’s (maybe) wool mitt that was just too much work to keep nice.

Ya, the Incredimitt from CarPro is awesome! I only use them on finicky black paints for maintenance washes. Use 6 per wash so I don’t install too many love marks.

I agree.. I have the both mitt and pad. They were the first to the market with this a few years back. Similar products are available now everywhere. I tried a few of them. They are not anywhere close to the originator.
