I like the sheepskin mitt sold by Mercedes-Benz USA, though it is very expensive. If I am diligent, I may be able to find a good sheepskin mitt at lower price.

I think a sheepskin mitt should have hairs with adequate length and stiffness. Some have too long and soft hairs so that the hairs lay neatly flat instead of being randomly curled to provide cushion and cleaning power.

Meguiar’s Chenille for me. A cheapo Chenille for the wheels.

Shmitt works the best for me. Why? because it lasts. All those chenille, and terry mitt either tear or become useless after just 10-12 washes, making you buy again...That's republican way, I went democratic way, and bought something that lasts.
Tried the Ulti-Mitt, not bad, but still prefer Shmitt over it.

MF mitt from Advance Auto Parts. It's bright green. I like it for the amount of soap/water it carries. Better than my old fake lambs wool. What I don't like is I am finding bright green threads in small crevices.

I have been using the shmitt since the beginning of spring,I like the way it fits on my hand and the way the dirt is easy to rinse out of it.But the only downfall to it,is it split in half after about 30 car washes.I wash able to glue it back together.but my opinion is I really don't think its going to last as long as a lambs wool wash mitt.I had my last wash mitt for 2 years and put it down for the shmitt,I bought the double set from ADS for around $30.00.the black one is for wheels and tires and wheel wells ,it works great with no problems.It could have been my fault the white Shmitt spit because I would rinse it off and empty and rinse my wash bucket,then toss it in the wash bucket and not hang it to dry.So,if anyone decides to try the Smhitt,rinse it out and hang up to dry.

Lambswool for washing, microfiber for the Last Touch\quick detailing treatment. Unfortunately there was no way to split my vote, so I just chose lambswool since that's the mitt I wash with.

Re: The New 2008 “What type of Mitt do you use?”
