Full Description

ChemicalWorkz Magnetic Stripes are small 1400 GSM microfibre drying strips with built-in magnets. Placed under a door mirror or at another problem spot, they catch the water that would otherwise run down the door and leave spots after drying.

They are made from the same Shark Twisted Loop microfibre as the ChemicalWorkz Shark Twisted Loop Towel, so they are especially absorbent, and the magnets hold them on the door without leaving residue, horizontally or vertically. Each strip is 26.5 x 5 x 1.5 cm, edgeless and hemmed for a soft touch on paint, and the pack holds two.

Expert Notes

After a wash and dry, water hides behind the door mirrors and runs down the door minutes later, leaving spots. ChemicalWorkz Magnetic Stripes are a simple fix: small strips of the same 1400 GSM Shark Twisted Loop microfibre as the Shark Twisted Loop Towel, with magnets inside so they stay put under the mirror and soak up the drips.

They work horizontally or vertically, leave no residue and are edgeless and hemmed to stay gentle on paint. Each strip is 26.5 x 5 x 1.5 cm, and you get two in the pack.

Perfect For / Suitable Surfaces

  • Steel door panels
  • Below door mirrors
  • Other drip spots on steel panels
  • Car and van doors

Caution: The magnets only hold on steel panels. Place them on a clean panel and take them off before you drive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are they for?

Stopping the water spots left by water that runs down the door after drying, mostly from the door mirrors.

How do they stay on?

Built-in magnets hold them on the door without leaving residue.

How big are they?

Each strip is 26.5 x 5 x 1.5 cm, and the pack holds two.

Will they hold on any car?

The magnets need a steel panel, so they will not hold on aluminium, plastic or composite bodywork.

Are they gentle on paint?

Yes. ChemicalWorkz makes them edgeless and hemmed, especially soft and gentle on paint.

What microfibre do they use?

The same 1400 GSM Shark Twisted Loop microfibre as the ChemicalWorkz Shark Twisted Loop Towel.

The Brand

ChemicalWorkz wash mitts, pads and clay

Chenille wash mitts. The micro chenille microfibre mitt lifts dirt away from the paint into its strands for a thorough hand wash. It measures 26 x 17cm, 80% polyester and 20% polyamide, with a black cuff, in blue, green, orange and red. Different colours make it easy to keep one mitt for paint and another for wheels.

Viscose wash pad. The Viscose Wash Pad is 24 x 17cm of 1,400gsm Korean microfibre (94% polyester, 6% viscose) around a foam core that soaks up wash water, with a narrower middle for a better grip.

Clay. The Magic Clay Bar comes as two 50g bars in Fine or Medium, for paint, glass, metal and plastic. It removes tree sap mist, insect remains, paint spatter, road tar, rail dust, overspray and industrial fallout, and the bars can be used several times. ChemicalWorkz strongly recommends a clay lubricant. The Clay Sponge replaces a bar with a polymer-coated sponge: wash and rinse the car, keep it wet, spray lubricant and glide it over the panel without pressing. ChemicalWorkz says it lasts much longer than a clay bar.

Shop by type: wash mitts and pads, clay bars and clay mitts and sponges.

ChemicalWorkz swabs, tyre brush and drying

Swabs. The Detailing Swabs set holds 10 swabs in 5 designs with foam or microfibre tips, for vents, emblems and other tight spots inside and out. The Coating Swabs are five foam applicators on 9.5cm handles with a tapered 6.5cm tip, soft enough to work sealant or coating into grilles, multi-spoke wheels and brake calipers.

Ultimate Tyre Brush. The Ultimate Tyre Brush is 28cm long, with a non-slip comfort grip and extra soft bristles for scrubbing road grime off the tyre wall.

Magnetic Stripes. The Magnetic Stripes are 1,400gsm Shark Twisted Loop microfibre strips with built-in magnets, sold as a pair, each 26.5 x 5 x 1.5cm. Place them under a door mirror or another drip point after drying and they catch the water that would otherwise run down the door and leave spots.
