    Been using a DAB DAB for over a year. The wrist strap is way more useful than I expected. Best wash mitt I’ve had.

    CARPRO DABDAB is the best wash pad I have ever used, and I have tried many. Highly recommended...ooh the strap is a life saver.

    Its perfect imo, size, microfibre quality, shape, foam, wrist loop, the dirt release is very very good too, can't see anything beating it

    The number of people that are going to be triggered by you wiping that bird crap into your nice new mitt! If you listen very carefully you can hear them all screaming into a cushion right now 😂

      @@teemu3370 if you’re cleaning your car then as Strider says.
      If you’re out and about, especially in summer where it can etch your paint have a spray bottle of deionised water in the boot with some paper towel.
      Simply wet some folded up paper towel with the DI water and place it over the crap. Leave it a few minutes to soften it, then blast it off with the DI water. No touching, no water spots it’s dead simple.
      If it’s fresh and not dried you can just blast it off no need for the paper towel.

    I own a dab dab & about 6 of the aliexpress equivalents Jon. The quality is night & day with 1 of the aliexpress mitts already coming apart after 3-4 washes & exposes the foam internals. I only use these on other cars I am washing now, the dab dab is exclusively for my Quad.
    I have used it probably 15 times now & it still looks like it did out the packaging. The old saying of you get what you pay for isn't always true but in this instance it's 100 correct.

    Chemical Guys wash pad, high quality chenille as requested and a tenner at Halfrauds. Not as stiff but rectangular so can be folded for easier holding and more clean sides to work with. Been using for 18 months and still looks brand new

    Imo, materials like the Dooka seem to float on the soapy panel and not really cut into the panel like the dab dab looks like..
    Generally, I do really like Carpro as a brand. All these newer US brands around but I keep coming back to Carpro.
    I've got the Delimit (for soft Japanese paint). How does it compare? I nearly bought the dab dab- I still might do
    The Rag Company Cyclone Ultra Wheel Mitt (2pk) yes! 2! Is a more similar material to- you should check that out. I didn't think I'd get on with the internals of the mit as it felt like you have to be a Star Trek fan- with the split finger thing they do. But when your cleaning the wheels it's like a super power giving me extra grip.

    • @ForensicDetailing
      @ForensicDetailing  4 дня назад

      @79blustone 4 дня назад

      @@ForensicDetailing I noticed, Both seem pretty good. Delimit is a nice pad no issues with it, I like the finger band inside.
      It looks like dab dab has slightly longer and shorter lengths of stringy bits unlike the Delimit as that is slightly more lower profile of stringy bits i.e blue bits slightly longer then the white bits. Where as the Orange bits look much longer, Which probably helps with cleaning. Very cool to show it off!

    Do a ‘real’ comparison of micrfibre vs lambswool
    Dispel that microfibre stores grit

    • @ForensicDetailing
      @ForensicDetailing  3 дня назад

      Microfiber can hold onto dirt a bit more. I notice with the viscose blend that MM in the incredipad use it releases dirt better than their own delimitt for example with is microfiber. In terms of grit though Im not 100% sure mate its really hard to reliably test.

    • @BrianW1612
      @BrianW1612 4 дня назад +2

      Utter nonsense. If we are talking about feel alone then the chenille mitts 100% feel rougher & more aggressive, even the more expensive, higher quality ones. They do not wash or hold up anywhere near as well either & I am speaking from experience.
      The whole thing around chenille being safer is completely misleading also. I remember the PVD test results & the only thing it proved was that chenille was safer when used dry. Who is washing a car with a dry mitt? 🤦‍♂️
