A Car Wash Towel The newest item in my ArtFire studio is a car wash towel. Odd right? Yeah, I thought so too.
It all came about because I decided to wash my car this morning. Now, I don’t use the fancy brushes or the drive throughs. I’m of the opinion that the best car wash is a hand wash. My husband always has those spendy suds on hand to wash his sports car so I put some in a bucket with warm water and went out to begin. Hmmm… “What to use to wash with?” I usually use a worn out small bath towel cut in half. All those seem to have disappeared from our place so I began to think of what else I might have that would do the job. Then, it came to me. I have this fuzzy wool and cotton blend fabric. Yeah, that should work fine. I cut off a strip of it from the bolt and off I was to wash.
To my surprise it worked better than fine. It worked fabulously. I was done in record time and the car was clean; no streaks of missed road grime. Done! My thought was, “If I like this so well surely with a little effort in the design department, others might like this as well.” So I conned my sister in law into washing her ride so I could take some pictures. And, I talked my son into washing his ride to get a couple more. They both liked the cloth. My son used his with some polishing compound to clean his rims. He was quite happy with the result. I was amazed at how easily the road grime washed from his cloth when he was finished. Just a little dish detergent and gently scrubbing and it rinsed away cleanly.
