Tip:
Dish soap will remain in the tool even when you think it's rinsed, try laundry detergent., it's made to rinse out, just like your clothes. This really applies for all detailing tools, towels, pads, etc.

Powerball...buy one and use only on the tips.... Never clean it just use it over and over and over...works better as you go and you use/need less polish. Mine stays mirror clean now with a wipe with a damp paper towel once per week.
