super cheap!

[Bluebeard]

Just found these on offer, they're 'ok' for washing the car, but for us detailing geeks, they're a very cheap and washable wheel cleaning mit! Just ordered myself 4 of them.

[Bluebeard]

My friend, that does not interest me! I just clicked the order button.

 

[Coby.]

I want to buy some just because they are cheap.... 3am and eBay gets very dangerous for me

 

[VIICarCare]

I get these from asda, from the pound boxes

Gone for two, cheers for pointing it out

What makes them such a good wheel cleaning tool? Simply because your hand is inside and you can poke your fingers in tight wet places?

Pretty much that.
I've got stupid black wheels so go over them with a soft brush and wheel cleaner once, then use a wash mitt and shampoo to get the rest off.

Soft enough not to scratch the wheels, cheap enough to not worry about ruining them.

 

[Martin.]

Forgive my ignorance. But doesn't a normal sponge do just that?

 

[Bluebeard]

No. Sponges are the work of the devil.

 

[Martin.]

Lol. Whys that? I'm not taking the piss by the way. I'm interested in a detailers view.

 

[Scrooge]

Sponges trap dirt inbetween itself and the paint, therefore scratching it

Good find!!! Cheers

I've a local shop to me that sells these at £1 each, i've got about 10 in the garage that I use on wheels, under the bonnet, dusting the interior etc. They'd even be ok on the paintowrk if you're not too into detailing (definately better than a sponge!)

 

[kaz2664]

They sell the same one in the pound shop ,bought one the other day.

 

[Bluebeard]

It will cost me more than 50p to get in the car and drive to the pound shop. Plus the £25 I'd lose from the hour away from work.
56p will not break me. Financially or otherwise.

I will be sure to carry out a thorough nationwide price comparison before posting such threads in the future. I am ever so sorry for wasting your time.

It would do if it was fired at you out of a canon. Or dropped from the edge of space...

 

[kaz2664]

Did I say it wasn't a bargain ? I was just pointing out they sell for a pound in the pound shop ,hence how the guy makes money if he sells 1000s of the things .Chill Daniel you've not wasted my time.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

He's wasted mine and I want compensation !

Hello ? Is that Lawyers4you .....

 

[Knuckles]

These feel soft enough to use on paint! Decent for the price

 

[Addicted]

Not got mine yet, slackers!!

 

[Addicted]

I take that back, arrived now - slow post today!

Perfect time though, cleaning for CSS later .
