parthiban Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 The guy who detailed my car told me I'd be better off washing it with a lambswool mitt rather than the microfibre one I currently have - does anyone have any recommendations?

liner33 Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Lambwool doesnt last well better off with something synthetic imo Better one of these http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-and-drying/wash-mitts-sponges/dodo-yeti-wash-mitt/prod_1063.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks massive - the size of it combined with the ceramic coating I'm hoping that washing the car should take a lot less time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 I binned my lambs wool mitts years ago, waste of money and a pain to use. They fall apart easily, need to be carefully dried and it's difficult getting all the debris out. I use grout sponges now, I prefer them over all mitts including MF and noodle ones.

I've ordered the mitt now so I'll see how I get on with that, but the guy recommended not to use any kind of sponge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 End of the day it's all down to technique rather than the tool used IMO. If you're going to scrub at the paint with either a mitt or sponge then it will mark. I won't use a normal car sponge though only a grout one as they're alot softer.
