No, I actually bought this and a flea comb and the flea comb was to fine so I kept this one, It's a pet comb it's the step up from a flea comb

A few spritzes of children's hair detangler makes the comb out process much quicker

I do not notice any difference when washing with it due to the detangler

Most grocery stores carry it and it is inexpensive

I'll have to check that out, it was a bit of effort to get some of the parts combed out

I do the same thing! Not only does it extend the life of a good wash pad/mitt, it also ensure that any trapped particulate is removed from the pad/mitt. Works with natural and synthetic material too!

I like this comb, easier on the wrist

I use one of these and it removed everything, including any loose fibers.

I used one like that ^^^ and it ended up pulling the Koala mitt apart , like in clumps ,after the 5th or so wash/dry . Just sayen be careful with that . I may've brushed a lil too passionate too though lol

Thanks for posting this tip and showing the pictures. I meant to get a brush recommendation and before and after pictures for the second edition of my how-to book but simply ran out of time.

I have 4-5 different long fiber wash mitts in a drawer in my office ready for the article and the how-to book but just never got to it.

I did include this information in the book however on page 25, in the upper right hand column...

This topic is actually very important.

Why?

Because if you don't brush-out these types of wash mitts the fibers will mat together and when the fibers mat together it makes the mitt less gentle and more aggressive to the paint.

was not aware it made the wash mit more aggressive, I will now be combing out my wash mit each time
