I must have really bad OCD because I not only keep my car really clean, but I also have a tendency to clean the tools I use to clean the car. The wheel ShMitt has been a tough one to keep clean though. It never looks dirty, but anytime I touch it I get brake dust, road grime, or old tire dressing on my hand. Yuck!
I tried a few different ways to clean it. At first, I tried spraying APC or degreaser on it but that didn't seem to get everything off the ShMitt. Then I tried some XMT pad cleaner . . . no luck again. Finally though I think I've hit on something that works.
I put my pad in a bucket of hot water and DP Foam Pad Cleaner. I let it soak for a while and then I rinse it out in some fresh water. This seems to work, but I hate to mix up DP Pad Cleaner just to clean my wheel ShMitt.
Next, I'm thinking of trying hot water and Oxi-Clean. Anyone else have any ideas on how to clean a wheel ShMitt?
