So far I have had great luck using Meguiar's Versa-Angle Body Brush. I used it with the two bucket system. I hang a paint roller grate on the rinse bucket and while I'm rinsing the brush I run the brush over the grate and it knocks off any stubborn grit that might be clinging to the brush, but as I have said, no problemas so far.

x2. I love both my wide faced brush and my versa angle. They both hold a great deal of soap and water, and are extremly easy to clean. Plus, Since they are white, you know when its time for a deep cleaning.

I use at the moment the Ultra Plush Wash Mitt.
And the Ultimate Wash Mitt, which is not available
in the U.S. yet (i think)
And i ordered from ADS this week the following wash mitts and pad ( among other things ):
* X-3000
* X-3012 ( new )
* X-3020 ( new )
* X-3050 ( wash pad )
So i can't wait for the package to arrive, so i can play with these
new toys and hope that the 2 new ones are available soon so
Rick can ship them out to the Netherlands.I just love detailing

Hey,
I too use a lambs wool mitt. I will get probably 20 washes out of each one and then I replace it (the fur is usually coming out by that point).
Cheers!

I gave up on mitts a long time ago. In my view, they're a real pain to use for a whole bunch of reasons, the most annoying being that you're hands get wet and soapy while you're washing. Lemme tell ya, this is an issue in cold weather!
Instead, I've gotten much better results using a dip brush with a long handle I got at Walmart for $5. This is its third season of use! I like the brush because:
(a) the long handle makes reaching the roof and lower side panels very easy.
(b) the bristles are frayed and are very soft, especially when wet. Not one scratch from this brush!
(c) my hands are kept clean and dry while I wash.
(d) the brush is cheaper and lasts longer than any mitt.
(e) the brush does not deposit animal oils on the finish like some lambswool mitts.
(f) the long soft bristles clean into nooks, crannies, body seams, etc., much better than any mitt.

I use a lambs wool mit and make sure to rinse it out well after every wash. I hang it on a hook which is located right over the spot where I keep my wash bucket so that it can dry out.
I also use the meguiars wide body brush which makes washing the roof of my Yukon much easier.
