Thanks RP,

Looks very nice, do you have to buy them by the case?

I didn't see a price, I'll look a little harder.

Thanks for the link

How long do these last,Mine is about a year old and starting to shed pretty bad. It may be because I dont hang it after use but leave it in the bottom of my wash bucket.

Uhh... a year?

It's time to replace it.

I'm using a mitt per quarter -- or there abouts... Mind you, I use these ONLY on my own vehicles. Customers get a cotton mitt from SM that I snare from the same vendor for less money... I find the 100% cotton mitt to be okay but not on the same level as the one mentioned above.... a customer's vehicle is almost always going to be seeing a polishing step of some sort and thus, any problems that could be induced by the mitt will be removed in the next step.

Thanks for the link RP,

Got a few mitts on the way, and found a few other things too.

Yeah,

I was running out of bolt-ons for the Expy, and I figured the exterior needed some help.

Just got my PC and other goodies today from ADS, and I have all next week off, Yes!!!

Will be tryin to get all the vehicles dialed in then.

Thanks for all the help!!

Oh, I did get a nice raise at work and had some extra money, so I figured why not.
