Trimaco 10901 Supertuff Painter's Mitt with Thumb, White

Product Information

And because the mitt was so ill-fitting and I couldn’t get into the details, I still needed to use my 3″ Wooster paintbrush to get into all the crevices. Clean the bannister and spindles with a soft damp cloth, and then scrape the bannister handrail with a paint scraper to remove any bubbled, loose or chipped paint. You can apply wood putty to any significant holes or dents, but this will then need to be left to harden overnight, Step 3: Sand (or de-gloss) There are some caveats, though. First of all, it’s very small. It feels tight on your hand, in fact, you can barely get your whole hand in. That also means a lot more effort to clean each panel. Also, it has another nasty, cheap cuff that makes it uncomfortable to use. It’s not bad, especially given the price, but I’d spend a little more to get something better. Begin applying the paint to the surface using smooth, even strokes. You may need to refill the mitt with paint as you go, depending on the size of the area you are painting. Step 5: Clean Up

Apply a specialist wood primer: an application of this will help the paint adhere to the surface and increase the durability of the paint. When this is dry, it is time to paint.

Almost. Unfortunately, it’s let down by its awful cuff. It’s really tight, which makes putting on and removing the mitt a pain. It’s also incredibly stiff and rough and will rub your wrist raw while using it. I can’t believe Autoglym designed such a fantastic mitt and dropped the ball with such a terrible cuff. It really lets the whole mitt down, and that’s a shame as this could have been the winner. Your bannisters will need to be cleaned though. Removing any loose dust and dirt can be done with a vacuum cleaner or damp cloth. Some people use a vinegar and water solution for this.Experts recommend satinwood paint as the best coating for bannister and spindles because staircases are notoriously high traffic areas, and satinwood paint is more durable, more cleanable and more “shape-enhancing”. When you use a sponge to clean your car, you're dragging it over the bodywork to remove debris. The rather uncompromising structure of a sponge will mean it collects little bits of debris that it will drag along the bodywork creating small scratches. This is also called marring. Once the paint job is complete, thoroughly rinse the remaining paint out of the mitt. Let dry and reuse when needed.

Staining mitts are designed so that you do not need to use a brush or cloth – you stain directly with your hand. Not all surfaces are created equal, and not all surfaces are easy to paint with traditional paint brushes and paint rollers. Traditional brushes are great for flat surfaces, corners, window trim and baseboards. But what sets the painter’s mitt apart during those tougher jobs?

The design of this microfiber wash mitt makes it perfect for cleaning hard to reach places. It is good when used wet or dry, and it is ideal for both the interior and exterior of your ride. Some people might have an issue with the glove design since the wash mitt feels like it could tear when you put it on. But it cleans like a champ without leaving traces of lint or residue from the finish. Pros

Eggshell paint is not so durable or resistant to dents, scuffs, scratches or stains, and as it reflects slightly less light, it does not enhance the contours, curves, and patterns of a typical staircase. What’s The Difference Between Eggshell Paint And Satinwood Paint? It is also hard to argue with the price. You are getting two microfiber towels for the price of one. This is probably one of the best wash mitts that I used in a while.A wash mitt usually can cost less than a tenner and could easily make your car look better and even worth a bit more cash when it comes to selling time, so it’s well worth it. As well as a good cleaning cloth, it’s probably the cheapest but most effective car cleaning upgrade you can make. How does a microfibre wash mitt clean better? Once the Painter’s Mitt is clean, it’s time to dry it off. The best way to do this is to place the mitt on a flat surface and allow it to air dry. Do not place the mitt in the dryer, which can damage the fibers. Storage A wash mitt works by filtering away bits of debris. The soft microfibre will pull grit and mud away from the paintwork, ensuring that bits of debris won't get trapped between the mitt and the paintwork. What else can I do to stop scratches?

But if you’re a professional automotive sprayer, paint shop technician, or decorator, it’s essential for you to wear the right disposable gloves, such as thin nitrile gloves.

Wash mitts are designed for your car's delicate paintwork, so it's worth knowing exactly what you're getting. The two materials they predominantly use are microfibre and lambswool. Microfibre is cheaper and great for cleaning paint, whereas lambswool is better for the planet but costs more to buy. If the mitt has any stubborn stains or paint, you can use a gentle brush to scrub them off. Make sure to be gentle with the material so that you don’t damage the fibers.
