$10 for 3 Wash Mitts at Bj's in MD

[prix03gt]

I found a pack of 3 MF wash mitts dreadlock style at BJ's here in Maryland. I normally buy the turtle wax woven synthetic wool style mitts, but this seems like a good deal.



This is it:



Cobra Blue Micro-Chenille Wash Mitt: Microfiber Wash Mitt, car wash, shampoo mitt



Are these any good?

Never used a MF wash mitt but I haven't heard of Cobra releasing anything bad. Overpriced IMO though.

$3.33 a piece is cheaper than the Turtle wax mitts I have been using....

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.

Overpriced? I think good deal: 3 for 10?!

turns out these are not cobra branded, they are called task force, or some off brand. I will try the CD test and see how they fair. They may be relegated to wheel duty only.
