Default Used a ShMitt for the first time...

I'm still not sure about it...

My washing situation isn't the best. I've got two huge trees over my drive way which drop needles and pollen puff balls on my cars all the time. I can't get away from it, but it does offer great shade.

I've been a long time user of Megs Gold Class Sheep Skin mits. Their down fall is they trap all the stuff that the trees drop. I kinda think it traps that stuff away from the paint, but it's tough to tell. It's nearly impossible to get all the crap out of the mitt.

That's where the Shmitt is really nice. I do a pannel, inspect it, pull the tree stuff off, rinse, repeat! It also holds a TON of water.

What I'm not sold on is what it's doing to the paint. I'm just not sold on sponges to wash the car in general. I really feel like it should be more prone to marring than a something fluffy. I do want to try the Ulti-Mitt next.

Anyway, I'll wash another couple cars with the Shmitt. It deserves a fair test.
