Our Chenille Microfiber Wash Mitt is super soft, gentle on the paint, and excellent at removing dirt and debris off the surface. The thick woven microfiber stands are placed within the wash mitt to capture an abundance of soap, eliminating washing time, providing more lubrication, and reducing the chance of inducing swirl marks. The elastic cuff will not allow the mitt to fall off when washing your vehicle. The Chenille Microfiber Wash Mitt can be machined, cleaned, and air-dried. This mitt measures 9" by 11".

 

How to Use:

It is crucial to start with a clean wash bucket. This wash bucket should have never had silicone in the bucket. Silicone is typically used in tire dressings and can cause issues with your Greenway’s Wash Solution's foaming capabilities.  Many people believe that rinsing a bucket out that had the wheel and tire brushes located in the bucket is good enough, but this is the furthest from the truth. Always start with a dedicated wash bucket that has never had contact with any silicone-based product.

Using a grit guard or another similar type of bottom bucket dirt separation device is always recommended for best results but is not always necessary depending on specific services you will be performing on a vehicle.

Place a few ounces of wash solution into the bucket and fill to the appropriate level with a high-pressure wash. Do not overuse any Greenway’s wash solution as they are incredibly concentrated and a little goes a long way. Dip your wash mitt into the wash solution and begin washing the vehicle from top to bottom. We suggest always using two wash buckets or two different colored wash mitts to avoid contamination. Many of your paint defects occur because of improper washing techniques. If you use the same wash mitt on the lower portions of a vehicle where heavy contamination can lay even after pre-rinsing the surfaces, this contamination may transfer from the bottom to the top of the surfaces, which can cause swirl marks, marring, and slight scratches.

After washing the entire vehicle and rising off, store your wash mitt outside of the bucket and allow it to air dry. Keeping your wash mitt immersed in water can cause the fibers' premature breakdown, especially when using a high pH stripping wash.

 

Car Detailing Tech Tip:

  • Use two dedicated wash buckets (one for the upper surfaces, one for the lower) or two different wash mitts that vary in color for ease of recognition (one for lower panels, one for upper panels)

  • Never use a bucket that had contact with any silicone product. Silicone can significantly reduce the foaming capabilities of any wash solution.

  • Do not overuse the wash solution. Greenway’s Car Care wash solutions are incredibly concentrated, and a little goes a long way. Using a measuring cup dedicated to your wash solutions is an excellent, cheap, and quick way to monitor your wash solution usage.

  • Washing in hot, sunny conditions can be challenging. Greenway’s Eco Wash is an excellent low foaming shampoo that is nearly self-rinsing and can help avoid water spots.

  • A high-pressure wash can significantly affect the sudsy solution when compared to a standard garden hose pressure output. If you use a garden hose to fill your wash solution bucket, try to use a fireman’s nozzle or another type of high-pressure nozzle to get the most out of our wash solutions.

  • Wash solutions are a cheaper alternative to a clay bar lubricant spray. If your vehicle does not have severe contamination and observing the particles being removed from a clay lubricant's opacity is unnecessary, using a shampoo can yield excellent results. You can merely suds up the vehicle panels again after your main wash and rinse procedure and then start your clay process. Our shampoos will provide excellent lubricity to allow the clay bar to slide on the clear-coated surface (Do not use a strip wash with a clay bar. This might lead to deterioration of the clay bar).

  • Using a dedicated soft body brush is an excellent choice to combine with your wash solution. Grille areas, openings around mirrors, and other crevices are tough to reach with a wash mitt. Using an incredibly soft body brush with a short handle will help you get these areas while not marring the paint. This is an excellent method to use with Greenway's Bugs B Gone if insects are an issue.

  • If working outdoors in hot conditions where shade is not available, washing the one side of the vehicle that is not in the sun will help reduce the chance for water spots and undesirable quick drying of the wash solution. You can then turn the car around and wash the other side no longer in the direct sun. While this technique might be somewhat of a hassle, it can be invaluable when conducting a full detail, and extensive contamination removal is needed by utilizing a clay bar.
