Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures
this mitt slide is replacing my grit guard/wash board combo. the problem with the grit guard washboard is that it's connected with two flimsy plastic post adapters that fall off easily which is annoying. the mitt slide is one piece which eliminates that problem...
Mitt Slide - Designed and Made in Korea
searching info on the company, i found that they make their own microfibers among other things. autofiber was the first to carry the mitt slide and it makes me wonder if the company below is their microfiber source...

Ditto on the annoyance with the GG/Washboard falling apart, I'm going to get one of those Mitt Slides...someday.
As far as the MF source, that could be, but I'd wager that AutoFiber and TRC have more than one source across the range of their products.

Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures
I note on the linked Mitt-Slide site that it mentions it is suited for buckets from 14 to 16 liters. That's an awfully narrow range. While I'm *assuming* there's probably low risk for larger buckets I'm wondering how it does with smaller (since it kind of sticks "up") ones. If just part of the unit is sticking above the water level on a 3.5 gallon bucket and that's all that it is, fine, but if it has fitment problems OR interferes with a gamma seal lid that would be unfortunate. Interested to see your results and thoughts.

Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures
That's what I use, is 3.5 gal buckets, so I will definitely report back...if/when I get one.

So, I really like those green and white fuzzy wash pads from Detail Popo
They hold a ton of water and suds and for large flat panels I think they are perfect
Don't get we wrong, they are certainly soft enough to curve and flow but for roofs, hoods, door panels, etc they really cover a lot of ground and seem as gentle as anything else I have used
Heck of a bang for your buck if you ask me

I discovered Detail Popo while browsing Carzillas site on one of my many occasions a few years ago. Ordered a chuck of their stuff and really do think they are a kind of hidden gem. Just as good as big name brands but much cheaper priced.

Re: Post Your Unpacking Pictures
A small order containing two brand new products from Gyeon.
I needed another tyre dressing like a hole in the head, but I needed something to make the shipping. Pneu represents my first Swissvax product.
But onto the Gyeon products, of which Eco Wash interests me the most. This is Gyeon's first attempt at a rinse-less and water-less wash. Like all rinse-less wash products, this is used at a 256:1 dilution, while it can be used at 15:1 for waterless wash, or 20:1 for a drying aid/quick detailer. Sounds very familiar to Carpro ECH20. And like ECH20, Eco Wash smells amazing.
Next, Total Remover. This is an interesting proposition, a product that can remove old waxes, sealants and even ceramic coatings in a simple spray and wipe action. It would appear this product is considerably more capable than an IPA type product such as Gyeon's own Prep or Carpro Eraser, and is said to be safe on paint, glass and plastic.
A quick sniff test had me wondering what was at play here. Certainly not an IPA type aroma, or that pungency of a high alkaline product. No, my instinct said acid......................................
Bingo!
In fact, it smelt very similar to Gyeon's water-spot remover, which had me wondering.......................
So, Total Remover is a strong acidic product, measurably more so than the water-spot remover. Both products would be a use with caution type of deal.
