Thanks! If you do please post some before/after shots in here! :thumbs:

Best write up on TMC! :thumbs:

Too much work for me, though.
Thanks Jas. It is a lot of work, I agree. I always tell people, though, if I'm paying several thousand dollars for a vehicle then what's a few hundred (one-time expense) to take care of it! :D

Matt- How do you recognize which mitt you use for the top of the truck & the bottom? I can tell between those and the wheels and tips one b/c it is dark gray!

Both of my "paint mitts" still look new and I don't wanna Contaminate the top mitt by using the rocker panel one b/c that would defeat the purpose:dunno:

Can you take a picture of your mitts? I usually either (1) use a marker to scribble on part of it or (2) ALWAYS keep the dirty panel mitt separate.

I usually keep the dirty one completely when not in use (for example, if I leave the mitts in my wash bucket when not in use, I put the dirty mitt under the grit guard).

Actually, I recently picked up two new wash mitts, so my 3rd dirty mitt is a completely different style. That's the easiest way.

Yeah man my two new ones are like that. Take a permanent marker and scribble near the elastic section all the way around.
