Best Vegan Mitt?

[Darkangelv2]

Hi All

Put simply, i won't be replacing my wool mitt with wool again (my wife is vegan and i like to do my bit if i can).

What are peoples' favourite man-made material mitts?

PS. When researching it does appear that some wool products are the result of shearing as opposed to skinning. These would be fine

Lot's of good microfibre ones out there. Gtechniq, Meguiars....both decent.

Thanks, i'll give the Megs one a go as it seems to garner good reviews.

I've got a meguiars imitation lambswool one had it over a year now its Bob on

I gave up on mitts after many years and now use "Microfiber Madness incredisponge". It holds water well and is gentler than even Lambswool. They also do an "incredimitt".

I can recommend the Adams Wash Pad. Huge, soft and holds lots of suds. Had mine 3 years or so now and just starting to think about getting a new one

Surely any none natural product mitt contains plastics, and we all know what that does

Ultimately it's the trade off I feel the need to make. I know how the sheep will have been treated prior to becoming a mitt and i'd rather have to put slightly more work into maintaining my paintwork than have that on my conscience.

On the flip side, if anyone knows of a woven alternative whereby the sheep are sheared and the wool woven into a material, i'd happily use this. I find the descriptions of the mitts tending to be too vague to discern whether the wool is still attached to skin or not.

PS. I recognise the irony of my interior vs this relatively small change! It's one of many small steps i'm trying to take!

Wouldn't it be easier to get a sheep, then you can get rid of your lawnmower as well

On a serious note, I don't think any of us think to hard where most of our products come from, I reckon, most probably wouldn't sleep at night, but then the debate rages about economy vs enviroment

Fair play!!! respect for sticking your ways and more importantly repping for the wife.

respect.
