Micro fiber do you use them?

[Chewy]

Where did you get them and what do you think?

Hello all!

I read all about Micro Fiber technology and they are WAY less likely to scratch over cotton which I've used up until now. I also read that you need to be aware that there are CHEAP MF towels out there. The ones I bought were guaranteed to be of higher quality. We'll see I guess.

My G8 will have nothing but MF touching it. I bought some MF dish towels at my local grocery store and was amazed how well they absorbed water off my dishes.

I bought the car ones online from... Nope not going to post it up as it'll be deleted. Oh wait... No it won't! Not here anyway... http://classic-motoring.stores.yahoo...FQLBsgod-Q55qg I did a search on google for a discount code for the vendor and was able to find a forum that posted one up so I got 10% off the order as well. So proud of myself... lol

Anyway... I look forward to receiving and trying them out and posting a review.

Mines a daily driver so it won't be perfect but I want to keep it as nice as I can.

Post up any new products or purchases you've made so some of us can try them too!

Washing your MF towels


Things You’ll Need:

* Microfiber Towel (dirty)
* Dish detergent
* Bucket
* Washing Machine/Dryer
* Regular Clothing Detergent

Step1
Gather all your dirty microfiber towels.
Step2
Pre-soak in a bucket of warm water with dish detergent for 1 hour
Step3
Place towels in washer with regular detergent (no bleach or fabric softener EVER!!!!). I use the detergent with no dyes and fragrance
Step4
Line dry or place in dryer (air or low heat only) with nothing other than other MF towels and voila your towels should be clean!

Bought the 25 pack of microfiber towels at Sams Club. Takes about 5 to detail and 7 if she's real dirty. I still can't see any scratches, just a couple of touched up rock chip marks. I would love someone to explain the proper way to touch up paint chips.

After much research and years of use, I will only use 100% cotton towel, white, made in USA with hemmed edged removed. Nothing softer. look at the Zaino website for more info.

[09GT]

Do you guys use the MF rags to dry as well or shammy while drying. I have only used the MF when detailing inside and out but never to dry. Let me know I have a Sam's around the corner.

I use a honeycomb weaved towel whenever i dry my car. Works fine.

Yes I bought some waffle look MF towels for drying. They are pretty large and costly but if you take care of them they should last for years...

I bought mine online as I didn't see any locally.

Drying towels can ONLY be used to dry. If you use with other products it will cause them to stop wicking water. No polishing or waxing of any kind.

so micro is the best i am picking up my 09 pacific blue g8gt sport,premium,sunroof, 35% tint this wed and i just planned on using the touchless car wash but that will get $$$$$$$$$$

I use mainly MFs. I hear you can get them at Target. Too bad we don't have target in Canada.

I do use cotton terry cloths for Scratch-X though.

Check out the site I posted up...

REALLY high quality stuff and not a bad price.

[Chewy]

Update. I took the plunge some time ago and bought some Adams stuff... Then a little more... Then a little more...

Well now I have probably a couple grand worth of their stuff and it's unbelievable.

Their MF towels are the best I have used and can find hands down. Their waxes and polishes and cleaning supplies are amazing as well.
