I use one for upper panels and one for bottom/wheels, but since the sheepskin mitts release dirt so well, it is almost impossible to determine which mitt was used for the dirty lower panels after doing a good rinse. Now that's quality.

Just an FYI:
I bought Autogeek's "top of the line" sheepskin mitt ($15), and it's already starting to fall apart on me after 3 washes.
As others have said, just visit your local Wal-Mart, Target or auto store and pick up a cheap one there. Probably just as good...if not better.

All I know is I think I'm done with sheepskin mitts. Next I think I'm giving one of these a try . . .

I got my best mitts from Excel Detail. They are the "pick of the litter" so to speak. I believe Patrick goes through and sorts out the good ones, the better and the best. AND they're very reasonably priced ($7.49 for "heavy" mitts and 3/$15 for his austrailian mitts).

I bought a sheepskin mitt from Autogeek for $15 as well. I think I did it at the beginnnig of the summer. It looks EXACTLY like the mitts you get in Wal-Mart for $7.

I've already upgraded from the 2 bucket system to a grit guard system.
