Question Which wash mitt is the best?

I've got a black car and I like the paint to be perfect at all times so definately want to get the best wash mitt available.

I've seen those microfiber mitts at walmart this year and wondered about those. In the past, I've been using the white viking wash mitts.

What is the best one I can get that won't leave scratches?

I would think that dirt would get caught in the microfiber?

The Viking mitts aren't bad, but my personal preference is quality sheepskin. Wal-Mart carries the Eurow brand, and they are very nice. I've been using them for about 4 years now.

I don't find microfiber to release dirt as well as sheepskin.

I use a sheepswool mitt I pick up from an online supplier that isn't a sponser...

.. shop around, and find one you like.. the one Zane and Mike recommend is a very nice mitt.

I am not a big fan of microfiber wash mitts and sponges .. it is too easy to casue scratches with them if you are not paying close attention.
