    If you got a CarPro wash Mitt..check it now

    so i bought one today and I really liked it..really soft worked well and such..I was cleaning it out after I washed it off..shook it in my hand to get water out and I see some yellow stuff..i dig in and there are dead bugs at base of fibers and some look like they were stitched into the mitt..here are 2 of them. I found like 3 and a few stray parts of the bugs in my fibers.

    That`s not what I would expect to find in a premium product. Did you buy it through Autopia?

    id call T and let him know, they most likely were there when it was manufactured. bug exoskeletons can scratch paint big time. id email avi@carpro as well because if those bugs were alive and were some sort of invasive species or something it could cause big issues...

    Re: If you got a CarPro wash Mitt..check it now

    Hi
    im very sorry to see that.. im not sure its a bug or seed
    the WWM pass extreme steam cleaning, tan and dye the skin , dry it and finally brushed hard.
    i find it very hard to believe bugs will stand this cleaning condition,

    surely not stitched to the skin since its natural skin , not synthetic stitched hair , but its not while doing the QC .

    we are selling these natural wool mitt for more then 3 years now with great success ,

    i will check this with your pics how it could happen and try to get you reply here.
    i think you can remove it, if you are still not satisfy , pls contact the reseller you bought it from and he will replace you that.
    for any other question you can contact me by PM

    Re: If you got a CarPro wash Mitt..check it now

    After using and rinsing clean: Unlike other quality wool wash mitts that should be turned inside out to dry the hide as well (not always an easy process) this mitt is simply swung for a minute using centripical force to remove the excess water from it. Then it is placed on a grit guard (preferably upside down).







    07-Proper Care

    When your mitt is completely dry use a pet brush (similar to what is pictured below) to brush it out and then stow it in a clean place for its next use. Be gentle and use a brush that has sufficient spacing between the bristles. It is normal to experience a little hair loss. J But there is no need to over brush your mitt

    you can see all details in my site , but here is the info for aftercare :

    " After use, rinse well under a warm tap water to remove as much debris and dirt as possible – do not machine wash!.
    - Use a dedicated detergent if the mitt is very dirty.
    - Allow to dry NATURALLY, DO NOT DRY UNDER SUNSHINE.!!
    - Brush the wool with pet brush or strong hair brush to keep the wool fluffy."
