Grip-It Microfiber Chenille
Wash Mitt
Product review by Terry Freiberg
Like the Grip-It Microfiber
Wash Pad which is reviewed separately, this companion Grip-It Microfiber
Chenille Mitt knocked my socks off. Both the Grip-It Pad and this Grip-It
Mitt is head and shoulders better than any other wash products I've ever used.
So, what's the big deal?
First, the mitt is made
from Microfiber so we know they will not scratch any painted or clear coated
finish. Microfiber is 100 times finer than a human hair. These strands are
woven into hundreds of "fingers" about one inch long, that cover both
sides of the mitt. These fingers hold mounds and mounds of soapy water. The mitt
literally glides across the surface, picking up every
particle of dirt and grime. This is the first product I've found that will give
a natural sea sponge a run for it's money. I used both the Grip-It Mitt and
the Grip-It Pad to wash a black vehicle that was covered with sand. Not one washing swirl!
| This is a great mitt
for cleaning wheels. I like the fact that
I can reach behind the spokes to clean parts of the wheel that I could never
reach with a brush. I also use this mitt to clean the exhaust tips. I use a
second mitt to wash my car's body but I'm a fanatic. The mitt measures 8-1/2
inches wide by 11 inches long. There is no thumb pocket so it's easy to
rotate on your hand to expose a clean area. |

I talk about using this mitt on cars but it is
equally suitable for washing trucks, boats and RV's. I've even used this mitt to wash my Harley Davidson. I thought the fingers might get
snagged on some of the engine nooks and crannies but I didn't have any
problems.
After washing, rinse
the mitt with a garden hose, squeeze out excess water and
allow it to air dry. Brake dust will stain the fibers which is why I
dedicate the mitt for wheel cleaning.
If these products become
excessively dirty, they can be machine washed with
Micro Restore Microfiber Cleaner.
