I have a few Plush Microchenille mitts and just purchased Wolfgang Uber Rinseless for my first time rinseless washing. Should I get the "rinseless wash mitt", or can I use the mitts I have? Any pros and/or cons to using one or the other?

Thanks.

Meguiars Microfiber wash mitts with a grout sponge inside of it work well.

Or my personal favorite is the Cobra Bone wash sponge. It hold a lot of water so just give it a squeeze to release more.

I use a bunch of quality MF towels rather than a mit.

+1 on these. I try to rotate at least 3 per vehicle. They work great and clean very easily by scrubbing against a grit guard. The light color also helps you indicate when the mitt is too soiled to continue use.

Ultra Soft Microfiber Rinseless Wash Mitt

^ they work well with traditional washes as well. i use the large bone sponge (same material) for large flat panels and the wash mitt for everything else...

Agree with using MF towels... you don't re-add dirt to your rinse less wash bucket and save time from having to fill and use a 2nd bucket.

i think you are better off using microfiber towels that way you dont need a grit guard or a rinse bucket. you can just use new towels instead of dunking a dirty mitt back in the wash. i been using the waterless wash towels for that they work great for both rinseless and waterless

Thanks for all of the replies. @fightnews, I have buckets and grit guards, and I intend on using them. I probably should have mentioned that. Would that make the use of the microchenelle type mitts be ok to use then, since I already have them? I do hear what you all are saying, sounds like the Ultra Soft type is the ideal way to go. And, I'll most likely purchase one anyway.

I primarily use Duragloss microfiber wash mitts and typically used 6 to 8 per wash.

I also have similar to the AG rinseless mitt and Meguairs wash mitt.

The denser and longer the fibers the greater the drag (force to move across paint).

That's how I used to do it, with the dreadlock mitts... Till I tried the rinseless mitt. It (imho) releases dirt so much easier.

Another rinsless Mitt user here. I have 4 of them, and also use them for traditional washes. As Ron said they release dirt really well.
