REVIEW - Autobrite Direct 'The Gauntlet'
Posted: Sun Mar 02, 2014 2:36 pm
THE GAUNTLET
The blurb
This is the perfect combination in the war against evil! Wear The GAUNTLET and wield BANEBLADE. Wipe away dirt in a manner so effective you will wonder what wizardry you have upon your hand!
How to use
Well, this is a washmitt, and if we have to go through the use of a mitt...you get the drift
What I will say is this. The Gauntlet is has a thirst for shampoo solution, so you may want to consider using larger buckets. It's not essential (I can do my Prelude using 2x12L standard buckets) but for those with larger vehicles, it is worth considering bigger buckets.
Being natural wool, you need to look after it. When used, rinse thoroughly, wring gently and allow to dry naturally. DO NOT MACHINE WASH OR TUMBLE DRY. When dry, using a soft brush, gently comb The Gauntlet so as to remove any matting and/or detritus you may have accumulated during your wash.
Good or bad?
Well, if you are man enough to handle Gauntlet, you'll find no issue with the aftercare (lets face it, rinse and leave to dry, 2 mins combing is no big deal for a quality product).
During the wash process, it is a heaven sent blessing that the mitt holds an awful lot of wash solution. It is also beautifully soft against the paintwork, and feels robust. It is good value too in comparison to other similar mitts, only £15.
Now, we know you love a photo or two, so please, let's not delay
It's a big beast:
Pre washed with Magifoam:
Baneblade in the bucket, and The Gauntlet, a deadly combination ready to go:
