Green Scrubbies
 
Are the green thin scrubbies that are used for scubbing dishes safe for a car?

Don't use anything on your car that's made for scrubbing dishes. Are you talking about for washing purposes? Only use a high quality microfiber wash mitt. Only dry it with a microfiber drying towel. Only apply and remove waxes with microfiber...you get the point. There's many online dealers that sell good microfiber stuff. Stay away from bath towels and all of that crap when it comes to your car.

what would you use one of those for on a car? they are almost like steel wool. wanna talk about swirl marks? haha. like said above, use only good microfibers on your car and you wont have a problem.

You can use them on the tires to scrub the old tire shin off of them, also, you can use them on windows if you need to scrub baked on bug guts. Don't let it touch the paint, though.

Sure you can use them as long as you want to scratch the H--- out of your car. Tires and wheels only. Don't use dish soap either!!!!!!

Off-topic... but dish soap is WONDERFUL for stripping the old wax off your car before you claybar

that is unnecessary since a claybar will most likely strip the wax off anyways.

are you talking about the yellow and green ones?
I use those for my rims, inside and out, or my engine bay with some goo gone and some mean green but i wouldnt use them anywhere else on my car, def not the paint,
My grandmother tried to grab one of mine to wash the 09 dodge im glad i stopped her in time,lmao

ehhh really no... claybar and detailing spray *your lube* will not in anyway strip the wax... there is nothing in clay that will remove wax... it does exactly what you have said.. it removes contaminates on the paint... meaning on your highest surface... alot of claybar kits even tell you on the package to "strip the wax on the surface before you start to clay bar for best results"
