Merino wool replacement?

[mysterymeat]

I have one of the original merino wool wash mitts, and I dearly love it. Putting together my spring sale order, I thought I'd be a good son and pick up one the merino wool pads that had replaced it last year. To my horror, I see that it is no longer available.

 

Is there going to be a new merino wool option anytime in the near future? Please, please, please...

I don't think so, at least not anytime soon.....Nick or Matt will chime in and let you know for sure.

The mitt not the pads

I bought mine at thompson racing last week.  Quick Shipping!  I think it was at my house in TX in two days.

No plans for a replacement, going forward.  Sourcing a high quality one that can be made at the rate in which we need it has proven to be nearly impossible.

 

As many here can attest, the Merino Wool mitts/pads have been out of stock WAY more then in stock over the past 18 months or so.  That stinks for everyone involved to be in a constant state of waiting!

 

If anyone knows of a suitable replacement that's out there that will hold up to our standards, please let me know!

I think the Professional wash pads at the price point you guys sell them at are

 

A)  A great value (both sizes can be had for 20 bucks as opposed to 1 merino wool mitt for $30, plus I'd still need a second wash media for the lower half of the car)

 

  Low enough price point to buy a "fresh set" once a year, or to have extras to rotate.

 

If its not broke don't fix it and if the wash pads do a good job and still sell well I'd just stick to them going forward.

We have two in stock if anyone is looking for one.

How about the Microfiber Madness mitts etc? I've heard good things about their durability

(Late to reply) Glad to see you received it quickly Eric!

 

The Merino mitts were fantastic and I still have a brand new one in the bag!  If there's still demand for them, I might put it up on our site.  Keep an eye out!

 

Looks like Kristen has a couple too!
