Cleaning your wash mitt?

[Extreme_Shadow]

I perfer using a hand mitten over a normal sponge but it gets so scummey after washing once so i just throw it in with my laundry and it comes out nice and clean. Is this ok to do will using the era and frabic softner on it affect my clear coat/paint when i use it to wash my ride again anyone do the same as me?

You will be fine. It will be a lot better than someone who lets theirs get contaminated. That is what will mess up your paint. I have always washed mine with only positive results.

i dont think you're supposed to use fabric softener on the mit, i dont think it hurts as much as it leaves smudges....era is liquid detergent, right?

might be a question for thewaxforum.

Yea its a liquid cleaner and we use downy for softner here you know the one with the bear heh

[aGMguy]

just use microfiber cloths, they are the safest

[Extreme_Shadow]

For washing the truck use microfiber? Hummmmm interesting have not heard about this I will try this perhaps

You don't want to use fabric softner because it will leave streaks and such and contaminate (sp) the paint...
