Anyone use Micro Fiber cloths

Hey guys,

If I can get some micro fiber cloths at a good price, would anyone be interested in getting some?

This type would be for the final polishing of the car and minute detailing, very soft.

ex: 3 12"x15" cloths for like $15.

I don't know prices, but if I am able to maybe we can get some cloths at good prices and share the wealth to my fellow members.

Any suggestions welcome, good or bad.

Costco....they are like $11 or $12 for qty 16 (16"x16"). I have used them for a few years now and they are AWESOME! The brand is Detailing Partner, no lint, no scratches and totally machine washable.

LOL thanks.

These would probably be Polishing Towels. So they would be a little bit higher quality and may cost more.

I'm going to be getting some more samples and then determine what would be the best.

Are you guys concerned more with the softness or the absorbent properties?

The soft ones we may be able to get, are probably not too absorbent, but would be great for that awesome car shine.

Well if you can get them at a good price Lex that would be great! Just as long as it doesn't scratch that black paint of ours! I don't want to spend another 4-5hrs getting an arm workout trying to get them out!

Are you guys more concerned with a final polishing shine cloth or a pre-final shine cloth, like the cloth used to wipe the wax off.

I found an even better deal. Just got a 18 pack of 16x16 for $10 at Sams Club. My previous purchase of 6 towels (surface area equal to 13 of the cheapo ones) cost $77.

Cool guys, I'm seeing what I can do.

From what it looks like, an all purpose towel is good.
16"x16" towels that can do some drying, detailing, and polishing.

Ill see what I can muster up over the next couple of weeks
