I use the cobra ones - very good mitt.

Now, here's the catch however! There must have been several generations of them - I kept finding swirls all over freshly polished paint. I tested my wash media, and bam, it was my mitt (cobra mf) that was doing it (major scratches on cd). So I threw it out and pulled another one from the package. Tested it and same exact thing - scratches galore. I ended up throwing out 5 new ones.

Now, I also happened to order several more from autogeek recently, so I tried those out. They worked perfectly, no scratches at all. They were however, a different consistency, color, weight, and a few other things I forget, than the first ones I used (which were also from autogeek). IIRC, the first ones were a really really dark blue, these are a much lighter blue.
