Am I a bit weird waking up actually looking forward to trying out a new wash pad?

Yes.

Was this the most pointless thing I’ve ever written?

Possibly :laugh:

Will almost certainly get the least number of views for one of your posts given the traffic volume in this section.

Anyway, I for one was interested and appreciated the effort in posting it. I have the Gtechniq mf on watching for them to come back into stock at clean your car. Although at the moment I'm averaging two washes a year :rolleyes:

A little but i was only 45 mins behind you with a bit of polish and ceramic spraying  :grin:


Anyway, because nobody asked or cares I decided I’d do a mini review of the Microfiber Madness pad.
I was intrigued, as i've only ever used sponges and mitts i was was curious about a MF pad. Ta for the review.

You need to be very careful using the 's' word here in the detailing section :grin:

Duly noted  :wink: in my defence it was a long time ago and swirls were all the rage back then  :grin:

Glad you liked the mf pad Exonian, they get better after 3-4 uses once broken in, or 2-3 years for you Watts  :tongue:
