Lambswool, definitely!

I'd consider getting a microfibre one as well though for the shitty areas like inside your wheel arches and under the sills, underneath your bumpers etc as they are harder-wearing and can take more abuse.

I've got this one, it comes with a rubber glove that goes inside to keep your hand dry! Probably the best fella to buy from too....

Great site to order from, ive got several stuff off there, all comes within 2 days normally and with a hand written thank you note

Ive got this by the way http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washin...e/prod_13.html

Fantastic and its just like a normal sponge shape except its microfibre and bloody thick pile so it traps all the dirt without scratching the paint

Buy the Sonus Lambswool (the best IMO)

plus any Microfibre for the shitty areas (I have the standard Meguiars)

= win!

A lot of our members on Detailing World have bought mitts from this place and been very happy with the quality of the products.

Just another option to get you even more confused - sorry lol!
