Lambswool wash mitt

Hi,

Hope everyone is enjoying the Thanksgiving long weekend.

I am trying to find a good quality wash mitt in the Vancouver area, I was told lambswool is the best, I was having difficulities finding one, does anybody know where I can find one? I tried Lordco but they don't have it.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

I recently picked up one at Canadian Tire in the Car Wash section. Good Luck!

I bought mine from Detailers Paradise. It is black, so it does not show the wear that my other mitts have. I love it !!

Have you considered a microfiber mitt? I'm certainly no expert, but have heard that microfiber is less likely to scratch the paint finish.

My experience with microfiber mitts is that they do not release the dirt as easily as a lambs wool. I've used both and I'm now using the microfiber just for the wheels. Do not buy a synthetic wool mitt - very bad.

Thanks everyone, I just brought a microfiber mitts ($9.99 CAD) for the time being, my car is really dirty, it needs a wash right away, haha! I might need to order a genuine lambs wool mitt online as I couldn't find any locally, I tried Canadian Tire, all they have is synthetic lambs wood mitt, not the genuine ones.

Have a nice day everyone!
