I've never used that particular mitt, but I "think" they are OK from other reviews I've read from credible sources that I trust.

Three things to look for if you might get one and use it: Does it say 100% cotton? Does it pass (or fail) the burn test? Finally, did it scratch/swirl your car after use? After the third stage, it's a little to late, but at least you know not to use it again... If you're still in doubt, try it on one panel and then inspect for damage. One panel is much easier to clean up than the whole car!

I would have already bought one and tested it, but my trusty old stock Vikings are still in good shape. Supposedly you can order the 100% cotton Viking from CMA, but I have not done that either...

If you are talking about the one that has a sponge on the inside and is covered with cotton strands, yes, it works pretty good.
