Product Information

Full details

The Triplewax 3 in 1 Microfibre Wash Mitt is designed for car owners seeking an efficient and safe way to wash their vehicles. Its primary benefit is its multi-functional design, combining washing, bug removal, and buffing capabilities into one tool to minimize scratching.

FAQs

Can this mitt be used on matte paint finishes?

Yes, the microfibre construction is designed to be safe on all paint types, including matte finishes, provided it is kept clean and free of grit during use.

How do I prevent swirl marks when using this mitt?

The microfibre noodles lift dirt away from the surface. To further prevent swirl marks, always rinse the mitt frequently in a separate wash bucket and use a two-bucket washing method (one for soap, one for rinsing).

What is the 'Bug Shifter Panel' for?

The Bug Shifter Panel is a textured section of the mitt designed specifically for gently but effectively removing stubborn, dried-on residues like insect splatters and bird droppings without harming the paintwork.

Can I use this mitt for interior cleaning?

While primarily designed for exterior washing, the soft microfibre could be used for dusting interior surfaces. However, it's best to use separate, dedicated microfibre cloths for interior cleaning to avoid transferring exterior contaminants.

Does the mitt come in different sizes?

No, the Triplewax 3 in 1 Microfibre Wash Mitt is designed as a one-size-fits-all product.

How often should I wash the mitt?

It is recommended to rinse the mitt thoroughly after every single use. For a deeper clean, machine wash it periodically, especially after washing a particularly dirty vehicle.

Troubleshooting

Mitt feels stiff or less absorbent.

This can be due to residue from detergent or fabric softener. Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly after each use and avoid fabric softeners. If stiffness persists, try machine washing with a mild detergent and rinsing very well.

Dirt seems to be scratching the paint.

Ensure the mitt is thoroughly rinsed during the washing process to remove trapped dirt. Do not use the mitt on excessively gritty surfaces without rinsing frequently. Always use a separate wash bucket for rinsing the mitt.

Bug shifter panel is not removing stubborn residue.

For very baked-on bugs or tar, pre-soak the area with water or a dedicated bug remover solution for a few minutes before attempting to use the bug shifter panel. Ensure the panel is kept damp during use.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile 3-in-1 functionality saves time and reduces the number of tools needed.
  • Microfibre material is gentle on paintwork, significantly reducing the risk of scratches and swirl marks.
  • Effective at removing stubborn dirt and insect residue with the dedicated bug shifter panel.
  • Absorbent construction holds plenty of wash solution, aiding in a thorough clean.
  • Can be used for both washing and finishing (buffing/polishing) steps.

Cons

  • One-size-fits-all may not provide a perfect fit for all hand sizes.
  • Requires separate purchase of car wash soap and water.
  • Effectiveness of buffing may be less than a dedicated microfibre cloth for professional results.
  • Must be cleaned thoroughly after each use to maintain effectiveness and prevent dirt transfer.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No setup is required. Simply slip your hand into the mitt before washing your vehicle.

Compatibility: This wash mitt is compatible with all standard car wash soaps and cleaning solutions. It is safe for use on all vehicle exterior surfaces, including paintwork, glass, and plastic trim.

Care Instructions:

  1. Rinse Thoroughly: After each use, rinse the mitt thoroughly under clean running water to remove all soap residue and dirt.
  2. Machine Wash (Optional): For a deeper clean, the mitt can be machine washed on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the microfibre's absorbency and effectiveness.
  3. Air Dry: Hang the mitt to air dry completely. Do not use high heat or tumble dry, as this can damage the microfibre material.
  4. Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.
