    I love mine. Still going strong on season 5.........
    Would you have a direct link? Do I just dump it In the bucket like a wash mitt and start scrubbing. I’m learning from scratch again about washing & detailing cars. We didn’t even have foam cannons back then.

    Carrand makes one for less than $20. It's sold at various places. Probably not as good as the griots, though. But, it's decent.

    Microfiber Madness makes some really good wash media including pads on sticks.

    My truck was only 40k but I still wanted to take care of paint. Bought a boars hair brush from AG and a nice telescoping pole from Home Depot because the one that came with it was garbage. Anyway soak the brush in your wash media while you clean your wheels and tires and you're good to go. No factor.

    I can open the back door on the FJ, but I can only reach half the roof by hand. I need the extension pole with the mitt to reach the front half.

    Totally get that... I think that's when the telescoping brush/mitt comes into play.
