Great video Chelsea! I thought I was the only one who has a brush for big trucks, RVs etc. Yay!
Thanks Chelsea. I have a large Subaru Ascent SUV, which has required moving a step ladder around quite a bit to get the top and even the top middle of the windshield for a contact wash. I appreciate your clear explanation and comparison of options for using a quality mitt on a pole, which I have been avoiding out of concern for marring the clear coat. The emphasis on a good prewash process and quality wash pad eases my concerns. Made me realize that it is not much different than doing it by hand if properly done.
Great video ….. This is the method I used on our 40 foot Fifth wheel RV and the Freightliner we used to pull it. Made it much easier to wash ……. Keep up the great videos 👍🤠
Thanks for sharing all your knowledge!!! I look forward to all your videos!!!!
Great advice on these wash mitts. Tks Chelsea
1st. I have the same issue with my Ram 2500. I'm 5'11 and have to use a platform to get on top of it.
Definitely looks like it sped up your wash process! I have a truck as well and it takes awhile to wash with just a wash mit. This could definitely be a plus to use on hot days to help get out of the sun faster.
Solid video and excellent analysis Chelsea! Thank you for sharing all of your experience with us.
Thank you for your support!
I prefer a Microfiber type MIT on a telescoping rod for large vehicles, rvs* and boats, I dip and do a panel and repeat, I prewash rinse and wash, dunk it do a panel and repeat. I also use a rinseless wash and maybe add some drying aid soap if needed. Keep up the hard work.
Love my Dragon Mitt on a Stick from AF; its in the top 5 of my detailing product purchase.
Great video, NICE truck too!
Great material keeps me subbed and coming back .. 👍
Great job Chelsea
Thank you Chelsea. I really learn a lot from your video’s. Can you tell me if the mitt on a stick pad is designed to fit any universally threaded pole or does it have to be their own pole. I recently ordered their pad after watching your video along with an assortment of extra mitts and towels but not the pole because I already have several high quality extension paint poles and even though the threads look like the same acme threads mine don’t seem to fit. Don’t know if I got a bad one or not so I thought I’d ask someone who has one. Thanks again
Great Video!! Chelsea, I Really Like Your T- Shirt. 🙂
I’d like to try that but I’m having difficulty finding a foam mounting head. As thick as a good mitt may be , I like the safety of a foam pad at the head of the pole to slide to mitt onto. I believe it would also aid in contact with contoured surfaces vs a flat plastic hard surface .
The mitt on a stick pro has a foam back
Great video I think i will return the one im getting from Amazon and get the autofiber one!!
Nice!
Good job
The Rag company brush is the optimum brush I think..
If i had to i would use the one that you're useing, But in Australia we don't have many of these "truck's" as they are a imported thing. We do have the smaller (Dual cab Utes) but blessed @ 180cm with long arm's i don't have to much of a issue.
You're lucky. I despise detailing giant trucks, and here in America it seems like most of them are driven by douchebags
Griots makes a great brush
Thanks for the Mitt on a Stick recommendation. Where did you get the step platform / ladder from? Keep up the great work and for sharing your passion with us!!!
Home Depot on Black Friday. Its a Werner gorilla ladder I think is the name.
@@attention2detailswchelsea awesome thanks!
I bought the expensive boars hair brush that griots sells. Used it once and it swirrelled my Honda Accord. I'll probably just keep it for doing wheels.
What color paint?
Early spring, white GMC 1500 Sierra, front is covered with bug guts and the black polished and chrome are a beast to keep clean. I am using Griot’s Ceramic 3-in-1 wax and I have pretty good hydrophobic behavior on the front end. Would some other “wax or product” help washing the nooks and crannies?
You could try a spray and rinse product like Mckees 37 Hydro blue graphene for the nooks and crannies
3/25/24 11:12am . Good morning . Sean here from NJ. A fan of your philosophy’s and videos. May I ask your opinion on boars hair brush on a pole ? For 18yrs I’ve been using boars hair brush on my black pick trucks with soapy water to agitate my layer of foam before moving onto my mitt wash. I’ve had great success . It’s pricey anywhere from 60.00 to 90.00 depending on brand and vendor. Now I take very good care of my boars hair brush after wash and always presoak before using. Life span ( for me ) is 3 to 5 years or more . I did purchase the Griots rectangular shaped buckets ( 2 bucket system )to give me more space to agitate brush during rinse & resoaping .Your thoughts ? Regards . . .SEAN
While they may be the safest option for brushes they are still aggressive on paint as most are still abrading the paint with the dirt and brushes combined. I prefer something like a mitt on a stick with a microfiber pad as they are more forgiving on paint and hold more soap/lubrication
Hello! Question, what would be a good microfiber detergent/rejuvenator brand? 👀 I plan on buying a gallon or something close to a gallon. Thank you!
Micro Restore

@@attention2detailswchelsea Thank you Chelsea!
I think the microfiber one is much better.
Chelsea, the mitt on a stick doesn’t have a maneuverable head so it looks to be awkward in trying to angle it to reach the roof of an SUV type vehicle. Do you agree?
Its not the most comfortable but I wouldnt say its awkward.
@@attention2detailswchelsea I find the swivel ones always swivel the wrong way, LOL
They now have a PRO version with adjustable and lockable head.
@@hopbuva702 the pro head is awesome, and you can buy it stand alone if you already have the pole.
@@christophercattieDo you like the original pole better, vs. the padded one on the Pro? I’m undecided, but definitely wanna buy one.
The first doesn’t seem adjustable? But the Pro’s pole, besides being thicker (which I’m not sure I’d like), with all three segments in, it’s quite long. The older style length seems handy, as Chelsea pushes along her bucket.
Love the new head with forward/back and left/right controls to prevent uncontrollable wobbliness.
BIG-RIG🤙
I would not use the flag faced brush for paint.
For using it one time sure does look wore out
