I would never use a brush on my car no matter how soft they are.

Just use a microfiber or a wash mitt.

I use tile grout sponges, they are better than than fancy detailing sponges and cost about $1.50 ea. at Home Depot/Lowes type stores.

That's what she said!


JK. They offer a bigger one. Takes about five or six passes to do the hood. Holds a ton of suds. Makes quick work of a small car like the S. The nap is super deep so no nasties get on the paint. And it's machine washable. I got it about a month ago and I'm still loving it.

Sounds like I need to try one of these out.. I've been using the meguiars lambswool wash mitt, it does the job well, but less passes to wash the car would be sweet.
