The two I'm using currently have held up for ~6 months without significant shedding yet, the last two I was using before that began shedding after ~3 months, and I've moved those to the wheels, so they've lasted ~9 months, but definetly show wear/shedding at this point. I have no problems paying $5/mitt every 3-6 months for new mitts anyways, so I'll continue to hand pick the ones at walmart. I also remove the elastic banding at the base to further prevent scratching of the paint

 

I bought 2 mits for $17 each and they lasted 2-3 washes each so $34 for 1 month of washes which is more than I'm willing to spend. I

hmm...well I live in NW Ark. aka wal-mart land so I'll def. have to stop by and get some, but the ulti-mits are also on their way so I guess we'll see which I like better.

 

Hmm thanks for all the Suggestions guy's! Appreciate the Info and suggestions, Now going out to look for a 100% Sheepskin Mitt!

 

i use the ultra plush wash/dust mitt from Waynes towels

I bought about 20 microfiber cloths from Costco and use that.

 

IMO, MF, especially cloths, are some of the worse car washing choices out there because they don't shed dirt well at all, I can hardly get them clean from machine washing, let alone in a bucket with dilute car wash solution

 

I agree with redlude on this one. MF Wash mitts do not touch my paint. I stick to sheepskin wash mitts and now have a place for the Lake Country Ulti-Mit, an alternative to the Edge SchMITT.
