I must confess that car washing is not one of my favorite hobbies. However, I like to drive around with a clean and well-maintained car. It is repugnant to me, if the alloy wheels "Outside Hui, inside yuck" only on the principle to be cleaned.
Have therefore bought the rims glove, because I work with another (even worse) aluminum rim with a minimum of 3 utensils needed to achieve a reasonable cleaning performance:
1. Normal wash brush can be screwed onto the water spout
2. Toothbrush
3. Felgenbürste
Finally, I then but still wiped by hand in places where I did not / has difficulties got there with the brush. The utensils mentioned are simply too inflexible to hard to reach places to clean yet.
Here is exactly the advantage of the washing glove. You come with him everywhere out where you can also get there by hand. If you have a spoke, then either once around it and already it is clean, provided you can wash the car and thus the wheels regularly. If you need 3 cleaning utensils and then needs to wipe his hand, one can imagine that the car wash to a fiasco with seven acts will. I have not provided me with a stopwatch in addition to the car, but I am filled worlds faster. In addition, my cleaning utensil hanging on the hand and not lying around in the way that a past Felgenbürste that has not withstood the load (Can indeed times happen)!
For stubborn dirt (tar) of the glove is not suitable. One must however be aware that you therefore also get problems with many brushes. The example does not mean that you can only wipe dust with the washing glove. No, you can also apply pressure with your fingernail and remove stubborn stains, but not everything.
In general, the washing glove absorbs relatively little water, if, for example the Meguiar's Ultimate Wash Mitt Waschhandschuh provides contrast. Therefore, I would not use the ALCLEAR for the paint. But what in the description, it's also a rim glove. (Caution: relative is exactly what it says In my opinion, for a rim glove quite OK.)
Perhaps there are still some who do not like it that the wheels glove wet limp depends a bit on the hand. But he is also suitable for large hands. But there remains enough feeling left that to get well in the corners.
Qualitatively my Expemlar is very well made. It is after washing nice fluffy.
Conclusion:
Due to these facts the whole wash mitt from me gets 5 points and I would buy it immediately. Already due to the time savings, I see over the fact that it depends a bit limp by the hand. With stubborn stains I do not usually do.
