That's what I'm saying...I never did it--everybody was doing the sponge thing except me, and ADS came out with a new sponge, and DIY came out with a new sponge...so I went crazy and bought...5?...sponges (maybe it was 4) and I was going to compare them because it was my contention they all came from the same factory and were just different colors...so I started measuring and taking notes...and then I got distracted, and life....so no thread.
I love the reference to the airborne tank developed for the Brits. The M22 Locust was to be able to be delivered by glider so airborne troops had "armor" at the drop zone. I'm one of the few history nuts you'll meet that actually like light tanks. M5 Stuart is bae <3M22 is out now

Compact, agile, and ready for action, this towel is designed for precision and performance in every detail. Built with a premium 70/30 microfiber blend, the LIQUID8R M22...theragcompany.com
I have some of them somewhere, I should probably try them, eh? That's why I'm not going to buy any M22's, I buy more towels...and then I never use them because all my old ones still work fine.
I love mine. Have 6. Wanna get to 10. They work so well once a tiny bit damp. I use a master blaster to assist in drying my cars so a towel that size is plenty since 90% has been blown off already. DI stopped listing them and I got worried they were discontinued. I was happy to discover they weren't. A pack of two is $24 on Amazon without a sale.
Gave the ProCut a well-deserved wash today!
Bilt Hamber Touch-less at 1.5% PIR. This was foamed on and left to soak for 5 minutes, which allows the product to penetrate and break down the dirt for easy removal via the pressure washer. Touch-less is fantastic for this sort of thing because you really don't need to use a brush or sponge, just let the chemical do its thing.
After sitting on my ass for a couple of weeks due to a pulled calf muscle I did a coating check/maintenance wash on my last coating job. I really wanted to see how functional the EGO backpack sprayer is as a rinseless machine and I have no regrets buying it. 3 gallons in the sprayer was enough to pre-soak, rinse off the grit from the lower panels and wheel wells and soak again before doing my contact wash.
On a side-note, if anyone is looking to make a large purchase such as a new polisher or something pricey, I have a wholesale free shipping code at DI and coupled with my wholesale discount can save one of you a good bit of money. There’s a $349 minimum and as of now I don’t’ need that much in supplies.
