Since I really hate using clay, I think it's time I moved on to a different product. I only detail a few cars a year (mine, relatives) and it's not so much an issue of time. I'm wondering if any particular format gives the best results (on a car with minimal contaminants), and if ease of use varies much.
Here are the pros and cons, as far as I can tell:
DA pad: more thorough but adds another step using a DA (not fun on lower panels)
Mitt: can be combined with washing (basically removing a step)
Towel: similar to mitt?
Sponge: cheap but doesn't cover as much area so it takes longer; harder to handle than mitt/towel?
Based on that info, I'm leaning toward purchasing a 'fine' mitt.
Is there any significant advantage to using (or avoiding) any particular type?
