NEW CHAMMIE - SMUDGES

Posted by jonnyboy (jonnyboy), 11 February 2004
Just started using new chammy, however leaving a lot of smears and smudges on glass(using after squeegee).  Does anybody know why this is and what I can do to stop it ?  Are you meant to soak them or something first ? Know a lot of you guys don't use these but any tips would be appreciated. Shocked Huh Roll Eyes

i only use my leather on leaded glass or small windows eg.doors and things but strait after i use a dry scrim to dry off i think to use just a shammy i think you need it not to wet but not to dry just moist..worth a try anyway

Shammies are history.
Use a scrim it is much more absorbent

Put chammie in a bucket and blast it with a pressure washer. best used damp. Get a scrim much better, only use chammie on leaded windows
