Sticky Cobra clay bar mitt
Used my new Cobra clay bar mitt for the first time last weekend. I followed the inclosed instructions and WOW! It worked. It saved time and did a great job. Afterwards, I rinsed it with clean water and set it on a terry towel, rubber sied up, to dry. Now, it's sticky. The instructions say not to use if sticky. Anyone else experience this?

The NanoSkin ones get sticky too, but I still use them with no problems.

Agreed.
I have the Cobra mitt, Nanoskin sponges, and Griot's Synthetic clay. All of them feel kind of "sticky" after the first use.
It's after you knock off the initial coating using it on glass.
You're good to go.

Did you let it dry in the sun?

I accidentally ran my two clay mitts through the wash the other day and now they are sticky again.
They also went through the dryer. I about freaked out at first but they were not stuck to anything. One was a little folded against itself but pulled apart fine.

I ruined 1 Nanoskin mitt and almost ruined another after leaving them exposed to direct sunlight. This is my new 1 that I nearly ruined but managed to salvage by putting it in the fridge to try to reverse the melting that had begun to happen.
If you look at the right side you can see it had started to melt. The left side is as it should be. Worst part is I didn’t even use it that day, it was simply laying on top of my detailing bag exposed to the sun. These things are sensitive!
