Its ultra-fine fibre texture keeps abrasion to an absolute minimum, making it the go-to tool for anyone who puts scratch-free results above everything else.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are wash mitts – and then there's the \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON Q²M Smoothie EVO\u003c\/strong\u003e. Pick this mitt up for the first time and you get it straight away: the fibre texture is so soft you can barely tell it apart from real fur or the finest velour. That's no accident and no marketing gimmick – it's the result of deliberate, focused material work aimed at one clearly defined job: maximum paint protection while you wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eGYEON's Q²M line is built around practical, high-grade tools for professional use. Within that line, the Smoothie EVO sits at the top of the demanding end: it's made for detailers who won't cut corners on coated high-gloss paintwork, freshly polished cars or dark solid colours. The 20×28 cm format is more compact than a classic wash mitt – and that gives you tighter control over pressure and movement in the tricky spots like door edges, mirror housings and the transitions around your arches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt Detailing1 the Smoothie EVO is especially popular with seasoned detailers who pick their kit on quality alone and know from first-hand experience the difference between a good and a genuinely great wash mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnology \u0026amp; fibre structure: the secret behind the Smoothie texture\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets the GYEON Q²M Smoothie EVO apart from other wash mitts – even from the rest of GYEON's own range – is how fine the fibres on its outer face are. Where the SilkMitt EVO uses a looped microfibre pile, the Smoothie EVO relies on extremely fine, densely packed filaments with a characteristic “soft wave” that glides across the paint with almost no resistance. That texture gives you a surface where the fibres gently wrap the dirt and pull it up into the pile, instead of dragging it along in front of them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fibre density of the Smoothie EVO is noticeably higher than on standard mitts – meaning more fibre contact per square centimetre, more suction for shampoo and water, and a more even spread of pressure across the paint. Fewer pressure spikes mean less localised friction, which adds up to the smallest possible risk of marring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mitt keeps to a compact 20×28 cm format. That's smaller than a lot of classic wash mitts, but that's exactly the point: the Smoothie EVO sits more precisely in your hand, needs less effort to move around and lets you work more deliberately on the awkward spots. For drying off large areas you'll want a bigger-format mitt to go alongside it – but for precise, gentle washing the Smoothie EVO is untouchable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne technical point that often gets underrated on the Smoothie EVO: water retention. Dunk it in the shampoo bucket and it soaks up a big load of water, then releases it in a controlled way as it meets the paint. That keeps a constant film of water and shampoo between fibre and clear coat – the essential lubricating layer that keeps marring at bay. Mitts with poor water retention go “dry” fast during the wash, which ramps up direct fibre-to-paint contact and invites scratches. With the Smoothie EVO that lubricating film holds up across the whole wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe fibre ends on the Smoothie EVO are open, not burnt or glued shut – a quality marker that's often missing on cheap products. Sealed or scorched fibre ends come from too much heat when the material is cut during production, and they leave the fibres scratchy. On the Smoothie EVO that step is tightly controlled, so every fibre carries a clean, soft tip – which is exactly what lands on your paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe back of the mitt is made from a soft polyester too, comfortable against the skin. The opening is wide enough to slip on easily even with cold, wet hands. You can wear latex gloves underneath without messing up the fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing it right: getting the best out of the Smoothie EVO\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe GYEON Q²M Smoothie EVO shows its strengths when you pair it with a clean wash technique. The golden rule stays the two-bucket method: one bucket with fresh shampoo water, one rinse bucket with clean water. After every pass you swish the mitt in the rinse bucket before dipping it back into the shampoo. That routine stops any dirt you've picked up from landing back on the paint on the next pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith the Smoothie EVO especially: no rubbing, no pressing. The fine fibres don't need pressure to do their job. The weight of the wet mitt is plenty on its own. First time out with the Smoothie EVO, most people are surprised how light and effortless the wash feels – and how clean the result still comes out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe'd also recommend a touchless pre-wash with a snow-foam lance or pressure washer before the mitt ever touches the car. That pre-step lifts off the heavy grit and cuts down the dirt load the Smoothie EVO has to deal with during the contact wash. On a properly filthy car this step isn't optional – it protects both the paint and the mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the job: rinse the mitt in clean water, give it a light squeeze and let it air-dry. For the washing machine: 30–40 °C, no fabric softener. Softener clogs the fibre pores and kills the suction for good. Looked after properly, the Smoothie EVO takes dozens of washes in its stride and barely loses any quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eA common slip-up with premium wash mitts: people don't swap them out often enough. Use a single mitt for the whole car without rinsing it between panels, and you're accepting that dirt from the early sections gets carried onto the parts you haven't touched yet. The two-bucket method keeps a lid on this, but running two or three mitts in parallel – say one for roof and bonnet, one for doors and flanks – is where safety is highest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor detailers working on customer cars we'd also suggest inspecting the mitt thoroughly after every use. Trapped stones, grains of sand or larger bits of grit can bed into the pile and cause scratches next time out. A quick rinse under running water after each use reliably clears most of these particles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it fits: when the Smoothie EVO is the right call\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Smoothie EVO isn't an all-rounder – it's a specialist tool for precise work on especially delicate surfaces. It shines exactly where an ordinary mitt runs out of road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFreshly coated cars\u003c\/strong\u003e are its natural home. In the first few weeks after a ceramic coating the surface is still curing. Any scratch, any smear in this phase gets locked in by the coating and stays there for good. The Smoothie EVO shaves that risk down to the smallest possible margin thanks to its ultra-fine fibre pile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor \u003cstrong\u003econcours cars and collector vehicles\u003c\/strong\u003e that need to stay flawless, the Smoothie EVO is the first pick. Here the goal isn't a fast wash but a perfect one. The compact format backs up precise work – every square centimetre gets the same care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt earns its keep on \u003cstrong\u003efresh resprays and polish finishes\u003c\/strong\u003e too: right after a polish the paint is more delicate than usual. The first wash afterwards decides whether the polishing result holds or the first micro-scratches start creeping in. With the Smoothie EVO and the right technique, that's a non-issue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEven for \u003cstrong\u003epainted wheels and calipers in paint-grade finish\u003c\/strong\u003e the Smoothie EVO works a treat – but keep a dedicated one for that, never used on the body paint. The fine fibres are brilliant for the gentle cleaning of painted metal parts without any risk of marring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor \u003cstrong\u003ecars with matte paint or a matte wrap\u003c\/strong\u003e the Smoothie EVO is spot on as well. Matte surfaces are extra sensitive to friction and won't tolerate high-abrasion mitts. The fine fibre pile of the Smoothie EVO leaves no shiny patches or rub marks on matte material – provided the shampoo you're using is matte-safe too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHead to head: Smoothie EVO vs. other wash mitts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWithin GYEON's range the Smoothie EVO sits as the most delicate and precise wash tool. Against other mitts – including premium alternatives from other makers – it's the first call for maximum paint protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to the \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON SilkMitt EVO\u003c\/strong\u003e, the Smoothie EVO is more compact and carries an even finer fibre pile. The SilkMitt EVO is the better pick for washing large areas end to end; the Smoothie EVO is for precise detail work and maximum protection on sensitive spots. Plenty of detailers run both mitts side by side – the SilkMitt for the panels, the Smoothie for edges and details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLambswool and natural-hair mitts\u003c\/strong\u003e are the traditional premium option and also carry very low abrasion figures. Their downside: more upkeep, more sensitive to heat and certain chemicals, and harder to wash. The Smoothie EVO is lower-maintenance, machine-washable and every bit their equal on abrasion behaviour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheap microfibre mitts\u003c\/strong\u003e look similar from the outside but differ fundamentally in fibre fineness and build quality. Once you've compared wash results on polished black paint – bargain mitt vs. Smoothie EVO – you'll spot the difference clearly in the sunlight: fewer micro-swirls, more depth, more clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor the really demanding jobs – washing a freshly coated car with the customer watching, say – it pays to carry two Smoothie EVO mitts. A fresh mitt for each half of the car doesn't just signal professionalism to the customer, it also makes sure no dirt from the rear of the car (where tyres and brakes leave more mess) gets carried into the sensitive paint areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe price gap between a Smoothie EVO (26 euros) and a bargain mitt from the DIY store (under 5 euros) might look steep. In the context of a professional detailing service or a wax project you're doing yourself, it soon puts itself into perspective: a single polishing session to remove wash-induced swirls costs far more time, material and effort than a one-off buy of the right tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it's for and our buying tip\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON Q²M Smoothie EVO\u003c\/strong\u003e is the right call for anyone who wants the best possible result on delicate paint when washing. At 26 euros it sits a touch above standard mitts – but well below what a single polish to remove wash swirls would cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor \u003cstrong\u003estepping into premium detailing\u003c\/strong\u003e we'd suggest buying the Smoothie EVO alongside a bigger-format wash mitt. Use the Smoothie for delicate areas and as a finishing tool, and another mitt for the quick panel wash. That's the setup the pros run – and the result shows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePair your Smoothie EVO with a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.detailing1.de\/collections\/gyeon-mikrofaser\"\u003eGYEON Q²M SilkDryer EVO\u003c\/a\u003e for drying off – the matching premium towel from the same product family. And if you want to learn more about proper wash technique, the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.detailing1.de\/blogs\/detailing101\"\u003eDetailing101 blog\u003c\/a\u003e from Detailing1 has in-depth guides for scratch-free car washing from the ground up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStill on the fence about which GYEON wash mitt is right for you? Here's the steer: for the fast, regular wash the SilkMitt EVO is the cheaper and perfectly good choice. For especially valuable cars, fresh coatings or the perfectionist home detailer who won't accept compromises, the Smoothie EVO is the clear pick. Both mitts together – one for each half of the car, or for different zones – make the ultimate setup for scratch-free washes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne last note for anyone who cares about sustainable care: premium microfibre mitts like the Smoothie EVO are a far greener option than single-use products or sponge mitts that get binned after a handful of washes. Machine-washed properly, a Smoothie EVO lasts many months to years – which cuts waste and resource use significantly. And once you've felt what a good wash mitt does for your paint, you'll rarely switch back. The result simply speaks for itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo sum up: the Smoothie EVO is the tool of choice for anyone who takes car care seriously and wants the gentlest possible contact wash. Its fibre structure can't be beaten, its format is well thought out, and its price is fair for what it delivers. Buy it once, look after it right, and you'll have it as a reliable partner on every wash for years – whether it's a quick one before work in the morning or a long weekend detail on your favourite car. Once you've worked with the Smoothie EVO, you understand why experienced detailers won't compromise on their wash tools – you can see it in the result, after all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e For maximum protection on that first wash after a ceramic coating: use nothing but the Smoothie EVO, load extra shampoo into the water, and work with the lightest possible touch.

The mitt gives you direct contact with the wheel face, pulls dirt and brake dust safely into the fibres and keeps the delicate wheel coating clear of scratches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCleaning wheels is one of the fiddliest jobs in car detailing. The wheel face takes constant punishment: brake dust that literally bakes into the surface at high temperatures, road grime carrying quartz and sand particles, moisture that works its way into every crevice, and chemical residue thrown up off the road. At the same time plenty of modern wheels come with delicate finishes – clear-coat paint, polished aluminium, powder coating or diamond-cut faces – that take permanent damage if you treat them wrong.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe trouble with the usual cleaning kit: sponges and cloths are too clumsy for the gaps between spokes, brushes can score the surface if you use them wrong, and working bare-handed means direct contact with the chemicals. The \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON Q²M WheelMitt EVO\u003c\/strong\u003e sorts this out with a purpose-built mitt shape that pairs the softness of a microfibre cloth with the control of a glove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou slip the mitt over your hand and it lets you get your fingers into the gaps between spokes, along the barrel and into the awkward spots without losing any cleaning bite. The microfibre lifts dirt and brake dust off instead of rubbing it around – and that cuts the scratch risk right down compared with the way most people clean wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe difference from an ordinary wheel wash shows the moment you first use it: the WheelMitt EVO hands you full control over how much pressure you put on and which way you work. Through the thin microfibre you can feel whether you’re gliding over the face or whether dried-on dirt is starting to drag. That direct feedback simply isn’t there with a brush, and on the WheelMitt EVO it lets you work with a lighter, more targeted touch on the tricky bits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMaterial \u0026amp; build: what sets the WheelMitt EVO apart\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe GYEON Q²M WheelMitt EVO is made from a special microfibre weave built around what wheel cleaning actually demands. The weave has a medium pile length – long enough to lift dirt particles off without pressing them against the wheel face, short enough to work precisely in tight spots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe microfibre structure is designed to grab brake dust and hold it. Brake dust is made up of fine metal particles and pad material that settles onto the wheel face at high temperature. Clean it the wrong way and those particles get dragged across the surface and leave fine scratches. The fibres of the WheelMitt EVO wrap around the particles on first contact and pull them into the pile rather than shoving them along.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe mitt is shaped anatomically and follows the natural contour of your hand. That means you can keep going without your hand tiring out, even on longer cleaning sessions. The cuff is cut so cleaning fluid doesn’t run up inside – a comfort detail that cheaper mitts often skip. Both faces are covered in microfibre, so you can put either side of the mitt to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn a cleaning mitt the quality of the seams matters. Seams that snag during a wheel clean or touch the wheel face can leave scratches. The WheelMitt EVO has no exposed seams on the cleaning face – it’s built so that in normal use only the microfibre surface ever meets the wheel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnother build detail is about washing. Microfibre gear needs washing regularly to keep working. Brake dust and dirt that’s been picked up sits deep in the fibres and has to be rinsed right out. The WheelMitt EVO is machine-washable at 30 degrees with no fabric softener – softener lays down a film on the fibres and kills their absorbency for good. After washing, let the mitts air-dry at room temperature, not in the tumble dryer, to look after the fibre structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHow long the WheelMitt EVO lasts comes down mostly to how you look after it. Rinse the mitt out properly after every use and wash it regularly and it’ll give you many good years. Stuff it away dirty in a bag and never wash it and you’ll find dried-on dirt gums up the fibres and the cleaning performance drops off a cliff. Spending money on a good wheel mitt only makes sense if you look after it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing it right: how to work with the WheelMitt EVO\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe WheelMitt EVO is intuitive to use, but a few techniques get you a better result and look after the wheel face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrep with wheel cleaner:\u003c\/strong\u003e Start by laying a suitable wheel cleaner onto the dry or lightly damp wheel and let it dwell. Wheel cleaners break down brake dust and dirt chemically first, so the WheelMitt EVO needs far less elbow grease when you wipe. That cuts the mechanical abrasion and protects the surface. Don’t use an acid-based wheel cleaner on coated or delicate wheel finishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWiping technique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dip the WheelMitt EVO into a bucket of water or shampoo and wipe over the wheel face with light pressure. Work from the inside out, starting with the barrel and spokes and finishing with the rim edge. On heavily soiled wheels, shake the mitt out between each wheel and dip it back in the bucket to clear the dirt particles it’s picked up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCleaning the spokes:\u003c\/strong\u003e For getting between tight spokes the finger technique works best: run individual fingers between the spokes and wipe deliberately along the inner faces of the spokes and the barrel. This is far more effective with the WheelMitt EVO than with a flat cloth, because the mitt shape lets you guide your fingers without the cloth slipping off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRinsing and drying:\u003c\/strong\u003e Once you’re done, shake the WheelMitt EVO out well and rinse it with clean water until the water runs clear. Lay it out open or hang it up to dry. Don’t dry it in the tumble drum, as high temperatures can permanently damage the microfibre structure. Dried at room temperature the WheelMitt EVO holds its shape over many uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePairing with chemical cleaners:\u003c\/strong\u003e The WheelMitt EVO is compatible with all the common wheel cleaners, all-purpose cleaners and wheel shampoos. It’s especially effective paired with an iron-dissolving wheel cleaner: that eats through baked-on brake dust chemically, so the WheelMitt EVO only needs light pressure for the mechanical wipe. That spares both the wheel face and the mitt. Aggressive acid cleaners should only go on wheel finishes that are expressly rated for them – the WheelMitt EVO itself stands up to most wheel cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeveral wheels in one session:\u003c\/strong\u003e For the best result, use fresh water in the bucket per axle. The brake dust lifted off one heavily soiled wheel can cloud the wash water fast. Fresh water for the rear wheels makes sure no dirt from the first wheels carries over onto the last. If you own two WheelMitt EVO mitts you can alternate: one’s in use while the other rinses out and drips dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere it fits: which wheels and situations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q²M WheelMitt EVO suits every common wheel type that calls for a gentle clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePainted alloy wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e are the most common use case. Clear-coated wheels react badly to scratches from harsh cleaning kit. The WheelMitt EVO with its soft microfibre face is ideal for this kind of wheel – a thorough clean with no risk of marking the clear coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolished or diamond-cut wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e put especially high demands on the cleaning tool. The polished areas of these wheels are extremely scratch-prone. The WheelMitt EVO lets you clean these areas without putting the high-gloss finish at risk. On wheels like these, rinse the mitt out especially often, as picked-up dirt particles otherwise turn into a hazard for the delicate surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eForged aluminium wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e often have complex designs with tight gaps between spokes that are hard to reach with the usual tools. The WheelMitt EVO with its mitt shape lets you clean even these hard-to-reach areas thoroughly by guiding your fingers straight into the gaps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSteel winter wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e may be less delicate, but they benefit from the WheelMitt EVO too. Brake dust and road grime cling to steel wheels every bit as stubbornly as to alloys. The way the microfibre mitt lifts dirt particles off gives you clean wheels without much graft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicles after the winter season\u003c\/strong\u003e are a case of their own. After months of road salt, grime and baked-on brake dust, wheels are often heavily loaded. The WheelMitt EVO lets you shift all of that completely with a suitable wheel cleaner and a bit of patience. The mitt shape lets you work deliberately at the trouble spots where salt residue has settled – especially on the barrel and deep in the spokes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotorcycles and scooters\u003c\/strong\u003e often have very tight spoke designs where conventional brushes struggle. The WheelMitt EVO with its mitt shape is ideal for this kind of machine. You can guide individual fingers into very tight gaps between spokes, and the soft microfibre face cleans the spokes from every side with no scratch risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eComparison: WheelMitt EVO vs other wheel-cleaning tools\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are various tools for wheel cleaning – brushes, cloths, sponges and mitts. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWheel brushes\u003c\/strong\u003e are widespread among pro detailers, but they have weak spots on delicate wheel finishes. Stiff bristles can leave fine scratches on clear-coated or polished wheels, especially when dirt particles get caught between the bristle and the wheel face. The WheelMitt EVO has no rigid body – the fibres give way around particles instead of shoving them across the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrdinary microfibre cloths\u003c\/strong\u003e are soft, but unwieldy for wheel cleaning. You can’t guide them precisely, they slip in your hands and they struggle to reach tight spoke areas. The WheelMitt EVO marries the softness of microfibre with the handiness and control of a mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCheap cotton gloves\u003c\/strong\u003e are one alternative, but they don’t have the dirt-holding capacity of microfibre. Cotton takes up moisture but tends to push dirt particles across the surface rather than locking them away. That ups the scratch risk. The WheelMitt EVO in microfibre is clearly ahead when it comes to protecting the wheel face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfessional wheel-brush sets\u003c\/strong\u003e in various sizes still make sense for certain jobs – especially spoke brushes that clean narrow channels. The WheelMitt EVO isn’t a replacement for a good wheel brush, it’s a partner to it: the brush handles the mechanical cleaning of the spoke channels, the WheelMitt EVO the finishing clean on the flat areas of barrel, wheel dish and rim edge. Together they add up to a complete cleaning system for any wheel geometry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho it’s for and buying advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eGYEON Q²M WheelMitt EVO\u003c\/strong\u003e makes sense for anyone who cleans their wheels regularly and cares about a scratch-free, effective job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor \u003cstrong\u003eowners of high-end or delicate wheels\u003c\/strong\u003e the WheelMitt EVO is the right tool. If you’ve put money into design wheels, don’t cut corners when it comes to cleaning them. A single deep scratch from the wrong cleaning sponge can look worse than a budget wheel costs to replace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor \u003cstrong\u003eregular wheel care at home\u003c\/strong\u003e the WheelMitt EVO paired with a good wheel cleaner is the way to go. The result is a clear step up from cloths or plain sponges – and the wheel stays in better nick long-term. You’ll find the right wheel cleaner and more kit for \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.detailing1.de\/collections\/felgenpflege\"\u003ewheel care\u003c\/a\u003e at Detailing1 too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor \u003cstrong\u003eprofessional detailers\u003c\/strong\u003e the WheelMitt EVO is part of the basic kit. In a pro setup you’re cleaning plenty of wheels every day – a quality mitt that lasts and works reliably is an investment that pays for itself fast.

With a mitt that puts your whole palm to work as a cleaning surface, you can wipe a wheel down noticeably faster than with a small cloth or sponge. The bigger effective cleaning area cuts the number of wipe strokes you need, and with it the working time per wheel by a good margin. Across four wheels that time saving adds up to several valuable minutes every session – and over a year of regular use, a noticeable bit of relief that saves both time and energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt a retail price of 22 euros the WheelMitt EVO sits in the mid price bracket – clearly a cut above cheap market offerings, but affordable enough for anyone who wants to lift their wheel care to a professional level. If you clean wheels regularly and have been getting by with cloths, sponges or cheap gloves, you’ll notice the difference the first time you use the WheelMitt EVO: more precise work, far less effort, a safer feel on the wheel face and a result you simply couldn’t reach with the old tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePro tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use two buckets for wheel cleaning: one with the wheel-cleaner solution and one with clean rinse water. After each section of wheel, dip the WheelMitt EVO into the rinse bucket first, shake it out, and only then into the cleaning bucket. This two-bucket method stops picked-up brake dust getting carried back onto the wheel – and at the same time it extends the life of the mitt, since it comes into contact with less concentrated dirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n","brand":"GYEON","offers":[{"title":"1 piece \/ Blue \/ White","offer_id":57335269032271,"sku":"D1-GYEON-Q2MWHLMITT","price":22.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/GYEON-Q_M_WheelMitt_EVO_Felgenhandschuh-1_Stuck.png?v=1775057085"},{"product_id":"meguiars-detailing-mitt","title":"Detailing Mitt Wash Glove","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMeguiars Detailing Mitt — a versatile microfibre glove for washing, polishing and detailing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat makes the Meguiars Detailing Mitt stand out?

The gap between a cheap terry glove off the supermarket shelf and a proper microfibre detailing glove shows the moment you first use it: the microfibre grabs fine grit and pulls it up into the pile instead of just dragging it around; the fibres glide over the paint without leaving a mark; and the thick padding keeps your hand off edges and spoilers you didn't mean to touch. The \u003cstrong\u003eMeguiars Detailing Mitt\u003c\/strong\u003e brings all of that in one compact, do-it-all package — a glove that does far more than just wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual-sided microfibre for washing and applying in one.\u003c\/strong\u003e Both faces of the glove are covered in deep-pile microfibre, each tuned for a different job: one side for a thorough wash that holds plenty of suds, the other for laying down and spreading products like wax, quick detailer or leather care gently.

That opens up the microfibre and wakes up its full suction. When you wash the car, rinse and wring the glove in the bucket often so the grit it's picked up doesn't end up back on the paint. For wax or detailer work, dampen the glove slightly — a touch of moisture spreads product more evenly than a bone-dry one. After every job, rinse it out well and let it air-dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Detailing Mitt's microfibre tech — why glove quality matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glove's microfibre is split-fibre — a process that breaks each strand into hundreds of finer ones to build a huge surface area. Those sub-fibres are so thin they're smaller than a speck of grit, so they physically trap dirt and hold it deep in the pile instead of just shoving it along. The upshot: grit locked in the fibres never makes its way back onto the paint, and never puts a scratch there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two faces are no accident. Meguiars built them differently on purpose: one side is tuned for maximum suds and cleaning bite, the other is woven finer and more evenly — spot-on for laying thin products like quick detailers, detailing sprays or glass cleaner down neatly. Use both sides and you've got a full care kit on one hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLine it up against a cheap terry glove and the difference is obvious: terry fibres are unsplit and soft, but they can't trap grit — they only push it around. They're also thicker than microfibre, so they drag harder when you press on the paint. The microfibre on the Meguiars glove is built for the least friction and the most pickup — a combo cheap terry gloves simply can't match.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the glove earns its keep — more than just a wash mitt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Detailing Mitt lives up to its name: it isn't tied to washing the car — it's built for the whole detailing routine. Day-to-day that means laying quick detailer down on paint and spreading it, wiping glass cleaner across the windows, working leather care into the seats and spreading interior cleaner over the plastics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 25×15 cm the glove covers plenty of ground with every pass, yet stays compact enough for the tight stuff. For door shuts, the centre console and the wheel, the glove shape is ideal — you feel the surface through it and can meter pressure and movement exactly, which a loose cloth or a pad never lets you do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glove works for wheels too, though you'll want to keep it clear of the harshest parts — brake-dust particles and sharp wheel edges can chew up the microfibre. For wheels we'd reach for a dedicated wheel brush. The Detailing Mitt is at its best on bodywork, glass, plastic trim and interior materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnother perk of the glove format that gets overlooked next to ordinary pads or cloths: you feel how the paint reacts under your fingers. Rough patches — bonded fallout or ground-in grime — show up straight away, well before your eye would catch them. That feedback in the hand lets you dial in pressure and stops you leaning too hard on delicate spots. A tool that talks back to you is worth a lot in car care — and that's exactly what the Detailing Mitt does.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing the Meguiars Detailing Mitt right — wash and application technique\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor washing, the two-bucket method is the standard every pro detailer swears by: one bucket of shampoo, one of clean rinse water. After each pass you rinse the glove in the rinse bucket — that way the grit it's picked up doesn't stay in the glove and get carried back onto the paint on the next touch. The Detailing Mitt is made for this workflow: it lets go of the dirt quickly and completely when you rinse, so a few seconds under water and it's clean and ready again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor wax or quick detailer, put the product straight onto the glove — not onto the paint. You keep a better handle on how much goes on and steer clear of over-applying, which is a pain to buff off. Work the wax in with straight, overlapping passes to lay down an even coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor interior cleaning, dampen the glove a little, spray the cleaner onto the glove and run it over the surface. The glove shape makes it easier to get into the nooks and recesses a cloth struggles with — around the gear knob, the cup holders and the door-handle wells.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe glove really shines when you're working product into spots a flat pad can't reach: door handles, the badging on the tailgate, emblems and lettering. It moulds to the shape of the surface, whereas a pad tends to bridge the edge of a badge and miss the recesses around it. The result is far less leftover product sitting in the crevices — cleaner and more professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt handles fabric and canvas convertible tops just as well — paired with a mild top cleaner, you can work the product in gently. The soft microfibre won't harm the weave as long as you keep aggressive chemicals out of it. Same goes for vinyl tops: the glove lays vinyl dressing on evenly without damaging the delicate surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glove format makes it a natural for motorbike care too. Tank, fairings and frame all clean up precisely and gently with it — an area ordinary detailing cloths often skip, but one that deserves the same care as car bodywork.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMeguiars Detailing Mitt vs. Hybrid Wash Mitt — comparing the Meguiars wash mitts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meguiars range has several wash mitts for different needs. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-hybrid-wash-mitt\"\u003eHybrid Wash Mitt\u003c\/a\u003e is built specifically for washing — with an extra-deep plush pile that holds loads of suds and gives maximum scratch protection. It's the better glove when heavy-dirt washing is the main event.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Detailing Mitt, on the other hand, is more compact and more versatile. It's the better glove when you want one tool for several jobs — washing, wax application, interior cleaning. The thinner padding keeps it closer to your hand and gives you a better feel for the surface, which makes applying products more precise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you own both, use the Hybrid Wash Mitt for the main wash and the Detailing Mitt for follow-up work, applications and the interior. If you're only buying one, the Detailing Mitt has you well covered for moderate dirt and regular upkeep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying the Meguiars Detailing Mitt — our pick for beginners and old hands\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis glove is one of the cheapest ways into proper car care. For under fifteen euros you get a pro-grade microfibre glove that handles every essential job inside and out. For anyone starting out in detailing it's the first thing we'd buy — before polish or specialist cleaners, because the right applicator makes as much difference as the product itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor old hands, the Detailing Mitt is the perfect extra tool for the moments a cloth just gets in the way: working wax into curved panels, laying interior cleaner into tight spots, spreading a quick sealant between the big detailing sessions. Pairing the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-quik-interior-detailer-cleaner\"\u003eQUIK Interior Detailer\u003c\/a\u003e with the Detailing Mitt gives you a fast, effective interior routine for on the road or at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe glove is machine-washable at 30 °C without fabric softener and, looked after properly, sails through plenty of uses. Spending a bit on a quality detailing glove pays for itself over its life — and keeps your paint safe from the micro-scratches cheap alternatives leave behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne thing that often gets missed at purchase: the Detailing Mitt's colour — bright yellow — is a deliberate choice. It tells you at a glance which glove goes where and helps you keep different areas apart in the daily grind. If you run several gloves for different jobs (paint, interior, wheels), the colour-coding is a dead-simple way to stay organised.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBottom line: this glove is a small, cheap and hugely versatile tool that belongs in every detailing kit. The mix of microfibre quality, safety edge, finger channels and dual sides makes it the right call for anyone who wants their car care to be effective, gentle and professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you're taking a car back to basics — say after picking up a used one — the Detailing Mitt quickly becomes a fixture in your workflow. Team it with a clay bar for the paint, a good drying towel and a quick detailer and you've got a full reconditioning process that turns out cracking results with no pro kit at all. The glove is the thread that ties it together: flexible, precise, safe on every surface and cheap enough to treat as disposable — even though, cared for well, it shrugs off use after use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you detail for a living, it pays to keep a few gloves in rotation: one for paintwork, one for the interior and one for special jobs like top care or tyre dressing. The low price makes that easy on the budget. Several gloves in different colours or with labels help you keep the areas strictly apart and steer clear of cross-contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne last word on storage: keep microfibre gloves somewhere dry and dust-free — not loose in a drawer with other tools, where sharp edges can snag the fibres. A separate storage pouch or a clean box in the detailing cupboard is ideal. That way the glove is clean, dry and fully up to the job next time out. Storage is an underrated factor: get it right and you stretch the life of microfibre gear a long way, keeping the suction and softness of the fibres intact over many uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWithin the Meguiars range, the Detailing Mitt is part of a broad line of accessories covering every corner of car care. Once you've worked with Meguiars gear, you come to trust the build quality — which pulls no punches even at the budget end. You see it in the Detailing Mitt: a simple product that does exactly what it should — reliably, gently and for the long haul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAsk an experienced detailer where a newcomer should start and you'll usually hear the same thing: put your money into good accessories first, products second. A quality wash-and-apply glove sits right at the top of that list — because without the right tool, even the best product can't show what it's got. Meguiars accessories are exactly that starting point: cheap, versatile, well made and ready to go. A buy that pays off on every wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt ships straight from stock. The glove comes in yellow and is ready to use out of the packet — no long wait, no fiddly setup, no learning curve. Just slip it on, get stuck in, and feel the quality of Meguiars gear for yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Meguiars","offers":[{"title":"1 piece","offer_id":57344842531151,"sku":"D1-MEG-X1804EU","price":13.41,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/Meguiars-Detailing-Mitt-Waschhandschuh-1-Stuck_PS1.jpg?v=1775376030"},{"product_id":"meguiars-hybrid-wash-mitt","title":"Hybrid Wash Mitt","description":"\u003ch2\u003eMeguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt — the microfibre wash mitt for professional car washing\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat makes the Meguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt special? The Hybrid Wash Mitt pairs a dense, long microfibre pile on the outside with an absorbent inner pad — the result is a mitt that holds plenty of shampoo, glides softly over the paint and traps grit deep in the pile instead of dragging it across the clear coat. Built for professional hand washing alongside the Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wash \u0026amp; Wax.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wash mitt is the most hands-on tool in the whole wash — it literally touches your paint. No other piece of kit has as much influence on micro-scratches as the mitt you run over the bonnet, doors and roof week after week. A cheap sponge, a linting terry cloth or a worn-out mitt with a flattened pile can do more harm than good. The \u003cstrong\u003eMeguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt\u003c\/strong\u003e is built for professional hand washing: a long microfibre pile that keeps grit away from the paint, high shampoo capacity for even cleaning, and an inner construction that keeps the mitt comfortable and easy to control — for a wash that leaves no scratches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eA long microfibre pile keeps grit away from the paint.\u003c\/strong\u003e The single most important technical spec of a quality wash mitt is pile height: a long, dense, even pile holds the grit that transfers off the paint deep inside itself, well away from the smooth, delicate paint surface. A short, hard or flattened pile does the opposite — it pushes trapped grit back to the surface of the mitt and lets it make direct, damaging contact with the clear coat, and that is the main cause of wash-induced micro-scratches. The Hybrid Wash Mitt from Meguiars has the long pile that is considered standard in professional, clued-up detailing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh shampoo pick-up for efficient, even cleaning.\u003c\/strong\u003e A good mitt should hold enough soapy water for several panels without going back in the bucket after every one. The dense microfibre pile of the Hybrid Wash Mitt draws up a big charge of shampoo through strong capillary action and releases it evenly and under control across the whole panel — fewer interruptions, more even cleaning and far less risk of accidentally wiping a dry patch, which would scratch on the spot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAn ergonomic fit for low-fatigue washing over big panels.\u003c\/strong\u003e A badly shaped or undersized mitt tires your hand fast on large panels and leads to uneven pressure and sloppy movements. The Hybrid Wash Mitt is shaped and padded so it sits securely on your wrist without slipping (no constant, annoying tugging it back on), wraps your hand naturally and comfortably, and lets you put down enough pressure to lift dirt without shrinking the working face against the paint.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDay-to-day from Detailing1:\u003c\/strong\u003e Before its first job, soak the Hybrid Wash Mitt once in warm water and wring it out firmly — that opens up the microfibres and maxes out how much it holds. Always work the two-bucket method: after every panel, rinse the mitt in the rinse bucket and drag it over the Grit Guard before it goes back in the shampoo bucket. That keeps the mitt genuinely clean through the whole wash and keeps the scratch risk from carried-over grit to a minimum. After the wash, dry the mitt with a towel or hang it up to air-dry — don't shut it away in a closed bag while it is still damp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMicrofibre vs sheepskin vs synthetic wool — what wash mitt materials are there?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are three main materials on the wash mitt market, each with its own character. Natural sheepskin mitts are the classic: real lambskin on the outside with a long, curly natural-wool pile gives excellent dirt pick-up and a soft feel on the paint. The downsides are sensitivity to harsh cleaners, more upkeep and a lot of variation in quality and pile length from one maker to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSynthetic-wool mitts copy the structure of sheepskin with man-made fibres. They are tougher than real sheepskin, easier to look after and cheaper, but usually less soft and with less grit-trapping capacity than a genuine wool pile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMicrofibre wash mitts like the Meguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt are the most modern option: synthetic microfibres in a long, dense pile combine the best of both predecessors — soft enough to protect delicate paint, tough enough for regular machine washing, and more consistent in build quality than natural materials. The hybrid character of the Meguiars mitt blends several materials for the best all-round performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachine-washability is a real practical win: sheepskin mitts often have to be hand-washed and dried gently, while microfibre mitts like the Hybrid Wash Mitt go straight in the washing machine — a serious time-saver if you wash often. For pro detailers running several mitts a day, that is a make-or-break advantage for efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDurability matters too: with the right care, quality microfibre mitts last 100–200 washes before the fibres give up. That is several years of use at one wash a week — a big cost advantage over cheap mitts that lose their quality after 10–20 washes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCaring for and washing your wash mitt — keeping the Hybrid Wash Mitt in top shape\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA wash mitt is an investment — and like any investment in your kit, looking after it pays off. A well-kept microfibre mitt lasts hundreds of washes and stays for years in a state that reliably lets you wash scratch-free. A neglected mitt loses its absorbency, goes hard and turns into a scratch risk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe single most important, non-negotiable rule for microfibre mitts: never wash them with fabric softener. Softener lays down a silicone-like film over the microfibres that kills their static charge and clogs up the capillary structure. A mitt that has seen softener takes up far less water and loses its trademark grit-trapping ability. Instead, use a dedicated microfibre detergent or a plain full detergent with no softener.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ideal wash temperature for the Hybrid Wash Mitt is 30–40°C. Higher temperatures can damage the microfibre structure and cut the pile length. A short, gentle-wash programme is plenty. Then air-dry the mitt or tumble it on the lowest setting — never on high heat, because microfibres are thermoplastic and warp permanently if they overheat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBetween washes, always store the mitt somewhere dry and well ventilated. Damp microfibres in a closed box or a sealed bag quickly grow mould you don't want and very unpleasant smells that burn permanently into the fibres. An open shelf in the garage, a free hook on the wall or a rail is ideal — the mitt dries all the way through and is ready to go for the next job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe key question: when is it time to replace the mitt? The right moment is when the pile stays visibly and permanently flattened and no longer springs back even after a thorough machine wash, when bald or thin patches appear in the pile, or when the mitt no longer picks up enough dirt despite regular washing and stops cleaning the paint evenly. At that stage, replacing is cheaper than risking it — a worn mitt is one of the most common causes of wash micro-scratches that then have to be polished out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing a wash mitt properly — the difference between a professional wash and a risky one\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTechnique makes or breaks the result. A lot of scratches come not from the mitt's material but from the way it is used. These are the common mistakes to cut out for good: circular wiping — it spreads grit in every direction and can etch circular holograms (swirl marks) into the paint that stand out badly in sunlight. Instead, always wipe in straight lines along the length of the car — parallel to the direction of travel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHeavy pressure while wiping ramps up the scratch risk. On well-foamed, lubricated paint the mitt needs no pressing — the shampoo lifts the dirt and the mitt draws it up through its own absorbency. Never rub the paint with force. If dirt won't shift after one pass, add more shampoo and give it longer to work rather than leaning on it harder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWashing top to bottom is another key principle: down low (sills, wheel arches, lower wing edges) the dirt is heaviest and grittiest. Start low and finish high and you carry the coarsest grit onto the cleanest, most delicate and most-looked-at panels (bonnet, roof). Always start at the top and work down — and keep a separate, older mitt just for sills and arches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor an especially clean result, we recommend pre-rinsing the car with a pressure washer or hose before you hand-wash. That pre-rinse takes off most of the loose dirt and cuts the grit load on the mitt right down — less dirt in the mitt means less scratch risk. Pre-rinsing matters most after rain or long drives, when there is a lot of loose road grime sitting on the paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-hybrid-ceramic-bucket\"\u003eMeguiars HYBRID CERAMIC Bucket wash bucket\u003c\/a\u003e with its Grit Guard insert is the perfect partner for the Hybrid Wash Mitt: the Grit Guard stops the dirt the mitt has carried into the bucket from being picked back up when you dunk it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMeguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt vs Detailing Mitt — comparing the Meguiars wash mitts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meguiars range has both the Hybrid Wash Mitt and the Detailing Mitt as two different mitts. The Detailing Mitt is a yellow, double-sided microfibre mitt tuned for quick care with quick detailers — a rougher side for applying and a soft side for buffing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hybrid Wash Mitt is the tool for a full car wash: with shampoo and water, over the whole of the paint. It is built for heavy wet cleaning, while the Detailing Mitt is made for dry or lightly damp touch-ups between washes. The two work hand in hand in a complete care routine: the Wash Mitt for the wash, the Detailing Mitt for quick detailing and wiping down after you have applied care products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor anyone new to car care, the Hybrid Wash Mitt is the more important buy: it covers the basic job — the regular wash — and it is the foundation the whole care routine is built on. The Detailing Mitt is a sensible add-on for touch-ups, but no substitute for a quality wash mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you run both mitts, tell them apart by colour or a small mark: one for the bodywork, one for more delicate areas like plastic trim, chrome strips or glass. That split stops residue from the paint mitt (tiny bits of grit off the paint, say) transferring onto more delicate surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne last tip for a really satisfying wash: check the Hybrid Wash Mitt now and then as you go. If you can see dirt clinging to it, rinse it in the rinse bucket straight away — don't wait for the next bucket change. That bit of attention makes the wash not just safer for the paint but more efficient too, because a clean mitt holds more shampoo and cleans more evenly than one loaded with grit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying the Meguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt — a wash mitt for professional car washing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt is the go-to choice for anyone who wants to take their wash to a low-scratch, professional level. The value is excellent — a quality mitt that is machine-washable and long-lasting pays for itself within a few washes against poor alternatives that soon lose their pile height and with it their protective effect. For people who wash their car regularly and care about a flawless clear coat over the long run, the Hybrid Wash Mitt is one of the best investments in the whole care arsenal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a combo we recommend the Hybrid Wash Mitt together with the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-hybrid-ceramic-bucket\"\u003eMeguiars HYBRID CERAMIC Bucket wash bucket\u003c\/a\u003e and the Meguiars Hybrid Ceramic Wash \u0026amp; Wax shampoo — the complete Hybrid Ceramic wash set, matched to work together. That set is the first step to a professional, low-scratch wash with no compromise on materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the wash, wash the Hybrid Wash Mitt separately from other laundry — ideally at 30°C without fabric softener, because softener coats the microfibres with a film and reduces how much they hold over time. A properly cared-for microfibre mitt lasts hundreds of washes and stays for years in a condition that reliably keeps fresh scratches out of your paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing the right wash mitt is one of the most important and most underrated decisions in the whole of car care — not because of the price, but because of its direct, lasting effect on the quality of the clear coat. Every single wash without a proper, quality mitt is a risk that adds up over the years into visibly dull, micro-scratched paint. With the Meguiars Hybrid Wash Mitt and the two-bucket method that risk is kept firmly in check — and the wash is a lot more satisfying when the result looks and feels visibly better every time: deep-gloss, scratch-free paint that looks like it did on the car's first day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Meguiars","offers":[{"title":"1 piece","offer_id":57344844693839,"sku":"D1-MEG-X210200EU","price":18.81,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/Meguiars-Hybrid-Wash-Mitt-Waschhandschuh-1-Stuck_PS1.jpg?v=1775376274"},{"product_id":"meguiars-microfibre-wash-mitt","title":"Microfibre Wash Mitt","description":"\u003ch2\u003eWash gently and keep swirl marks away with the Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWhat makes the Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt stand out?

What you get is a thorough, proper clean that respects the paint rather than beating it up. If you don't want to compromise on paint safety during your hand wash, this mitt is the right way into gentle washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLong microfibre strands for maximum dirt pickup without touching the paint.\u003c\/strong\u003e The dense, long microfibre strands of the mitt grab dirt particles and pull them deep into the material. Unlike a flat sponge, which shifts dirt around on the paint surface, the strands actively pull the particles out of the contact zone. That cuts the risk of wash marring and fine scratches right down – especially with gritty or coarse dirt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh water uptake for the lubrication you want when washing.\u003c\/strong\u003e The mitt soaks itself full of shampoo water and releases it evenly onto the paint. That lubricating layer between mitt and paint is the second key safety principle: it lets the mitt glide over the surface without grabbing and without the micro-scratches that come with it. On large panels like the bonnet or wings, you really feel the difference.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniversal fit and easy handling day to day.\u003c\/strong\u003e The mitt format fits most hand sizes and lets you work fatigue-free even on longer wash sessions. Compared with a sponge, the mitt sits securely in your hand and gives you full freedom of movement for every contour, edge and awkward spot. After washing it rinses out easily, wrings out well and dries quickly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003cblockquote class=\"praxistipp\"\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetailing1's tip from the shop:\u003c\/strong\u003e For the best results, soak the mitt in clean water before its first use so the strands open up fully. When you wash, always work top to bottom and rinse the mitt regularly in the second bucket of clean water – the tried-and-true two-bucket method. Drop a Grit Guard into the rinse bucket so the dirt you rinse off sinks to the bottom and doesn't get picked back up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMicrofibre wash mitt technology – why the fibre decides everything\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eNot every wash mitt is the same, and the deciding factor is the fibre it's made from. A \u003cstrong\u003ecar wash mitt\u003c\/strong\u003e made from microfibre is built from fine polyester or polyamide strands with a cross-section smaller than a single human hair. These microscopically fine fibres have a star-shaped or lobed structure that offers far more surface area than a round fibre. That's the physical core of every quality trait: more fibre structure means more capillary action for water, more capacity for dirt particles, and a gentler interaction with the paint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt, the long, plush strands are set up to keep enough distance between the solid fibre base and the paint itself on contact. That buffer – formed by the floating fibre tips – is what keeps the dirt particles you're carrying from ever touching the paint directly. They get caught by the strands and pulled deep into the material. That's the fundamental difference from an ordinary foam sponge, where dirt stays on the surface and gets dragged across the paint on the next pass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMicrofibre also has a natural affinity for grease and oils, which sharpens its cleaning on light soiling like bird-dropping residue or bug splatter. Paired with a good car shampoo – acting as the lubricant between mitt and paint – you get a system that cleans mechanically without attacking the paint. One thing that matters: the microfibre quality should run at least 300–400 g\/m² so the strands are long enough to build the buffer described above. Cheap supermarket stuff usually never reaches that fibre depth – which shows up as more wash marring and a shorter life for the mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWashing your car with a mitt – doing the two-bucket method right\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eHow well a wash mitt cleans lives and dies with the right technique. The number-one rule: never dunk a dirty mitt straight back into the shampoo bucket. Every time a dirt-loaded mitt goes into clean wash water, you contaminate the whole bucket – and the next pass carries that dirt right back onto the paint. That's the classic mistake that leads to wash marring even with a good mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003etwo-bucket method\u003c\/strong\u003e shuts this down for good. Bucket 1 holds water with car shampoo, bucket 2 holds clean rinse water. After each section – say a door or a wing – the mitt goes into the rinse bucket first and gets wrung out thoroughly. Only then does it go back into the shampoo bucket to pick up fresh wash water. A Grit Guard in the rinse bucket makes sure the sand and dirt you rinse off sinks to the bottom and doesn't get picked back up next time round.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor wash order the rule is: roof first, then bonnet and boot, then the sides, and finally the sills and wheel arches. The reason is simple: that order follows how dirty the panels are, from cleanest to filthiest. If you finish off with the wheels, use a separate mitt or a wheel brush for that, because brake dust and wheel grime are more aggressive than normal bodywork dirt and could scratch the paint if you carry them back onto the body. The Meguiar's mitt is made specifically for bodywork – for the wheels we'd point you to a dedicated wheel mitt or brushes from the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-large-bucket\"\u003eMeguiar's bucket set\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn heavily soiled cars – after long motorway runs, in winter or after off-road trips – a pre-wash step with a pressure washer or a foam pre-wash pays off before the mitt ever touches the car. That lifts the coarse dirt off before any contact washing, which spares the mitt and cuts the scratch risk even further.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eGentle washing – how to keep wash marring and swirl marks away\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWash marring – those fine, hair-thin scratches that show up in sunlight as circular patterns on the paint – almost always comes from mechanical contact during the wash. The causes: dirt particles you're carrying, the wrong wash media, too much pressure, or not enough lubrication. A quality \u003cstrong\u003emicrofibre wash mitt\u003c\/strong\u003e knocks out one of those causes completely: the wrong wash media. But only if you take care of the other factors too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePressure is the second most common reason for wash marring. Bear down too hard and you press the particles you're carrying into the paint. With the mitt the rule is: let the strands do the pulling, not you. A light contact pressure is plenty, as long as the mitt is loaded with enough wash water and shampoo. The weight of the mitt and the capillary action of the fibres do the work. Push harder on stubborn grime and you risk scratches even with the best mitt out there.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLubrication from enough shampoo in the wash water is the third factor. Wash water that's too concentrated and low on foam lubricates worse, which raises the friction between mitt and paint. Meguiar's suggests using their \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-hybrid-wash-mitt\"\u003eHybrid Wash Mitt\u003c\/a\u003e or – for maximum lubrication – a pH-neutral car shampoo like Gold Class Car Wash. Getting the shampoo dose right makes a real difference to how the mitt glides over the paint. You can see the right mix in a good foam that visibly wraps the mitt as you wash.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter washing, rinse the mitt out thoroughly with clean water and hang it up to dry. Left balled up or sitting in a bucket, it invites mould and wrecks the fibres. Look after your car wash mitt and it'll take on plenty of wash sessions – the fibre structure holds up, and the cleaning stays consistently high.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWash mitt comparison – microfibre vs. foam vs. plush\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThere are basically three types of wash mitt on the market: microfibre, sheepskin\/natural plush and foam. Each has its ideal use, and a fair comparison has to account for that. The classic \u003cstrong\u003efoam sponge\u003c\/strong\u003e – or foam mitt – is the cheapest and most widespread option. It has high water uptake and cleans up easily. The catch: dirt particles collect on the smooth foam surface and get dragged across the paint during the wash instead of being picked up. On freshly polished cars or delicate paint, foam is the least advisable option.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSheepskin and natural plush mitts sit in the tradition of professional car care and offer excellent lubrication and high water uptake. The soft natural fibres glide gently over the paint and have strands about as long as a quality microfibre mitt. The downside: natural materials dry more slowly, tend to mat up with poor care and are harder to clean. Quality also varies a lot depending on workmanship, and cheap sheepskin mitts rarely reach the dirt-pickup depth they promise.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Microfibre Wash Mitt – the Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt in particular – is the most modern option and blends the strengths of both predecessors: long, soft strands like a plush mitt, but from synthetic material with a defined, consistent quality. Synthetic microfibre dries faster, is easier to clean and holds its structure across plenty of wash sessions. For regular use in day-to-day detailing, the microfibre type is the best combination of performance, durability and low upkeep. That puts the Meguiar's mitt firmly in the everyday-tool camp for anyone who wants gentle washing without going the professional sheepskin route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBuying the Meguiar's wash mitt – who it's for and how it fits your care system\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt is aimed at every car owner who wants to hand wash at a solid quality level without splashing out on specialist pro kit. It's ideal as a way into gentle washing – for anyone who's been working with a sponge or a cheap mitt and is realising that wash marring and scratches don't have to be the unavoidable result of every car wash. The combination of quality fibre and a well-thought-out mitt design makes it a reliable everyday tool for experienced detailers too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs a system recommendation, it pairs best with the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/meguiars-hybrid-ceramic-bucket\"\u003eMeguiar's HYBRID CERAMIC Bucket\u003c\/a\u003e, a Grit Guard and a quality car shampoo. That combo covers every side of a proper hand wash: the right bucket with a Grit Guard stops dirt re-contamination, the shampoo delivers the lubrication you need, and the Microfibre Wash Mitt handles the safe, thorough contact wash. Add a separate rinse bucket on top and you've built a complete, paint-safe wash system with minimal kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt comes in the 1-piece option – as a single mitt at EUR 21.90. For regular washing, picking up two mitts pays off: one for the bodywork, one as a backup or set aside for sills and wheel arches. Looking after the mitt is simple: rinse it out thoroughly after each use, wring it lightly and hang it up along the fibre direction. Machine-washable at 40°C, no fabric softener – softener clogs the fibres and cuts the uptake capacity for good.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn cars with fresh paintwork, ceramic coatings or wax sealants, using a dedicated, regularly cleaned car wash mitt matters that bit more. Residue from earlier washes, building up in a badly kept mitt, can attack coatings over time or scratch the surface. With the Meguiar's Microfibre Wash Mitt and a disciplined care routine, the car stays for the long haul in the condition you pictured when you bought it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Meguiars","offers":[{"title":"1 piece","offer_id":57344844890447,"sku":"D1-MEG-X3002EU","price":19.71,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/Meguiars-Microfibre-Wash-Mitt-Waschhandschuh-1-Stuck_PS1.jpg?v=1775376338"},{"product_id":"innovacar-micron-wash-mitt-mikrofaser-waschhandschuh","title":"\"Micron Wash Mitt\" Microfibre Wash Mitt","description":"\u003ch2 id=\"speakable-headline\"\u003eDer saugstarke Mikrofaser-Waschhandschuh für die schnelle Wäsche\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cblockquote id=\"speakable-summary\"\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDer „Micron Wash Mitt\" von Innovacar ist ein super-saugfähiger, beidseitiger Mikrofaser-Waschhandschuh für die Waschphase.

Its microfibre pile pulls loosened dirt away from the paint and carries it deep into the material. The 95 percent polyester and 5 percent polyamide blend is built to hold its shape over many machine washes, and the internal seam keeps hard edges off the clear coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMicrofibre doesn't clean because it's soft. It cleans because the fibres are split lengthwise during manufacturing, turning one thread into many fine wedge-shaped segments. Those wedges slide under the dirt film and pull it inwards by capillary action. What that means for you: anything that drops between the fibres stops touching the surface, as long as you keep rinsing the mitt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 95 percent polyester share places this mitt honestly on the scale. Polyester brings structure and abrasion resistance, polyamide brings softness and water uptake. Detailing mostly runs on 80\/20 and 70\/30 blends, which soak up more and feel plusher. The TUGA mitt sits at the hard-wearing end of that scale, not the cuddly one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe pile is storage, not padding.\u003c\/strong\u003e A grain of quartz off the road measures two to three tenths of a millimetre and is harder than the clear coat under it.

Detailing forums put the normal figure somewhere between 20 and 30 rinses over one car. Rinse three or four times and from the second panel on you're dragging the grit you just picked up back across the paint. The scratch tests floating around show the same thing on the other variable: the very same microfibre leaves visible marks on dry paint and almost none on wet, foamed paint. It isn't the material that decides, it's water and frequency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWet paint, no pressure, rinse after every panel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou soak the mitt in shampoo solution, pull it in straight lines across paint that is already wet, and rinse it in clean water after every panel. That's the whole routine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBefore the mitt touches anything there's a contact-free round. Rinse, lay down pre-cleaner or foam, let it dwell, rinse again. What's left clinging to the paint after that is a fraction of what sat there before — and everything you take off at this stage is something the mitt never has to carry across the surface.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThen you work two buckets. One holds the shampoo solution, the other clean water only. The \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/tuga-chemie-shampoo-teufel-autoshampoo\"\u003epH-neutral car shampoo\u003c\/a\u003e this mitt was built around goes in at four to five cap-fulls per ten litres. Its lubricating film is the real scratch protection. It keeps particles in suspension instead of trapping them between fibre and clear coat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLukewarm water lifts dirt and shampoo better than ice-cold; it doesn't need to be hot. In winter the weight shifts to the pre-wash anyway: road salt, sand and grit are the most abrasive stuff that lands on paint all year. You never break winter crust with the mitt, you break it with water and time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWash top to bottom, because the dirt gets coarser the lower you go. Roof, glass, bonnet and bootlid first, then the upper halves of the doors, bumpers and sills last. Within a panel you pull straight lines in the direction of travel. Circular motions are what produce those round spider webs that jump out in low sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou need no pressure at all. The dead weight of a soaked mitt is contact pressure enough. Push down instead and you flatten the pile, shrink the storage space and bring the particles back to the paint. And one rule with no exceptions: a mitt that hits the floor is done for that car.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePaint yes. Wheels and sills need a second tool\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wash mitt belongs on painted surfaces, glass and plastic. For wheels, sills and dried-on winter grime it is the wrong tool, and each for its own reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBrake dust carries metallic, sharp-edged particles. A mitt that has been round a wheel barrel carries that cargo in its pile even when it looks clean — and hands it back on the next pull across the bonnet. There's dedicated kit for that: a \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gyeon-q2m-wheel-mitt-evo-waschhandschuh-felgen-mikrofaser-1250gsm\"\u003ewheel mitt\u003c\/a\u003e is cut narrower to reach between spokes and never sees paint at all. Same goes for the bottom thirty centimetres of the body, where road sand, salt and grit sit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt works no better dry. On dusty paint without a water film it turns into an abrasive, because every grain sits directly between fibre and clear coat. And against baked-on bug splatter or tree sap no mitt beats the bond — those spots get dwell time first, or you end up leaning harder and cutting exactly the scratches you set out to avoid.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTwo honest limits on the product itself. TUGA publishes no GSM figure for this mitt, so no number for its weight per square metre, and without it you can't line the storage volume up against models that quote 640, 1250 or 1800 GSM. And the 95 to 5 blend is built for durability, not for maximum plushness. If you're after the softest possible material for black or freshly polished paint, you'll find it in lambswool or in the long-pile premium mitts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne expectation is worth setting straight before the first wash. AUTO BILD's 2026 wash mitt test pulled nine models under an 800-gram weight across a black acrylic panel dusted with half a teaspoon of quartz sand. The result across the whole field: even the good ones leave marks under those conditions. A wash mitt isn't a shield, it's the lowest-risk tool available — provided the coarse grit was rinsed off first.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe system partner to Shampoo-Teufel, not the premium mitt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis mitt fits if you wash by hand on a regular basis and want a tool that survives plenty of machine washes rather than one that loses its shape after a season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 16 × 23 cm and around 120 grams it's compact. Around swage lines, mirror bases and door handles that's an advantage. With big hands, or washing in winter with gloves underneath, it's the point where a larger model suits you better. Common comparison sizes sit at 26 × 21 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone doing the whole car in one go plans a second mitt for the lower panels anyway. Two mitts are cheaper than one polish, and keeping upper and lower separate is the difference you see two years later in low sun. Which build suits your paint is laid out in the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/waschhandschuhe\"\u003ecar wash mitts\u003c\/a\u003e overview.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDemand for wash mitts in Germany has followed the same pattern for five years running: August is the strongest month, December the weakest, and right now interest sits about 16 percent above the twelve-month average. Restock in late summer and you're bang in the window where pollen and bug splatter make hand washing necessary most often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the thing that decides how long it lasts happens after the wash, not during it. Rinse the mitt under clean water after the last panel until no more suds come out, squeeze it and hang it up open. Put it away wet and full of leftover grit in an empty bucket instead, and it dries there squashed flat with the sand locked between the fibres. Next time out it isn't a wash tool any more, it's sandpaper with a cuff.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TUGA Chemie","offers":[{"title":"1 Stück \/ 16 x 23 cm \/ Weiß \/ Türkis \/ Pink","offer_id":58530236367183,"sku":"D1-TUG-WHD","price":14.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0800\/3272\/7375\/files\/tuga-chemie-waschhandschuh-mikrofaser-shampoo-teufel.png?v=1787312380"}],"url":"https:\/\/detailing1.ch\/en\/collections\/mikrofaser-waschhandschuhe.oembed","provider":"Detailing1","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
