Wash Mitts???

I use a sheepskin mitt. I'm thinking of switching over too MF (microfiber) because I hear they last longer and are more softer on your paint. The only downside about MF is I hear that they are real pain in the a$$ to clean. But if it's softer than sheepskin I'll go for it.

We'll save my MF wash mit for acid baths.

I use a brush. Soft boar's bristle. No scratching and no chance of dirt getting caught in it and scratching the paint. It also gets into the nooks and crannies such as the grill.
I screw a long handle into it and it makes washing the truck a lot easier, especially the roof.
I used an all synthetic brush for many years prior to th boar's bristle. It was made in Germany and had blue feathered bristles. It finally started falling apart. It was also very soft and didn't scratch the paint.

If you chose to go with Dennis and use a brush, then make sure you don't apply pressure to the brush. The tip of the bristle is what is meant to do the cleaning. If you apply pressure and push down on the brush, then the bristles spread out and the sides start to hit the paint. They aren't meant to be on the paint and will increase the chance that the brush will scratch.

Oh, in regards to mitts, I'd go with a terry cloth mitt and I would have two or three of them. Use one for the horizontal surfaces, then a new one for the upper sides, then one for the wheel wells and lower parts of the truck. Helps eliminate the chance of the mitt picking up too much dirt which might end up scratching the paint.
That's why I like the brush. Very little chance of gritty stuff scratching the paint (actually the wax layer, not the paint).
