Title: New wash mitt
Post by: Matto on March 21, 2013, 01:58:19 pm: I'm in need of a new lambs wool wash mitt after mine decided to fall apart. Probably due to me putting it in the washing machine which I know I shouldn't have done now. Just wondered what people can recommend?

Thanks

Post by: Frenzy on April 10, 2013, 10:29:05 pm: Killed my wookies fist by torturing it in the washing machine :sad1:

so i've replaced it with a megs one of which i already had one and now have 2 that i can bung in the washing machine to my heart's content with no fear of it disintegrating. Oh and it does a very good job of washing the car too. 11 quid from halfrauds maybe you can get them a bit cheaper on t'internet :happy2:
