Wool Wash mitts at Autozone

Which one of those do you have?

EDIT: Sorry, I see you are talking about the wool mitts from Autozone.......... are they the Eurow mitts?
 
When it comes to sheepskin, gotta go through every single one and pick only the softest. Sometimes none are good enough, then you'll have to just leave them.

I go with the Eurows from Wal-Mart. No marring whatsoever but whatever mitt you use, switching to a new one during the wash process more than you think necessary really does help.

Also, with regards to chenille, because it is chenille does not necessarily make it 100% cotton. In fact ,I only saw a mitt once that claimed to be 100% cotton as well as chenille locally at Boater's World.

You're not using that "bug side" on the paint.......... are you? That could be the problem with your swirls. Also, what is your car washing/drying procedure.
 
They can smell bad if not washed and dried via machine fairly promptly. Otherwise you must've gotten some really strange sheepskin because they do not reek when brand new and dry. If you get the softest ones you can pick out, I find them to be unequaled for use as wash mitts. The synthetic mitts that attempt to mimic the style of real sheepskin are way too coarse and,IMHO,just plain stink ( figuratively)

I couldn't agree more.......... haven't meet a synthetic mitt that I've liked/trusted yet! The people that say "my synthetic mitt seemed to work good for me"...... aren't looking close enough!

I've been a long time fan of 100% cotton mitts. With my supply of them running low, I'm going to be trying a number of sheepskin/lambs wool mitts to find the best ones.
 
Boss,

I think you're going to like them. In fact, they seem a lot easier to find locally. Like I mentioned earlier the typical chenilles are of unknown content, could only be part cotton and part something, who knows what else.

I never had much luck with chenilles due to an over abundance of lint :( Luckily sheepskins, although they vary because they are a natural material, at worst shed here and there. The more they shed the closer you know they need to be demoted to wheel duty and eventually to the garbage. I do believe you can prolong their life by washing them, or at least drying them in the machine. Dry them inside out to help save the wool.
