Where do you get your microfiber from?

Like the title says, and I'm assuming the microfiber towels you can get from Canadian Tire suck... correct?

I've bought a package from Costco - i think it was 20 towels for $12 maybe. Anyway , realy cheap and they work great ! I have some more expensive ones, but these work just as well.

Honestly - none - and i'm very picky when it comes to this. Remember, with microfiber you dont need to apply much pressure - dont 'mash' the towel in to the paint.

I am very impressed with these towels so far - these are the best bang for the buck by far.

E-shine has some good ones.
The CT 3pack for around $8 isn't too bad. Very plush. Not saying they won't come apart after many washes, but the ones I have have lasted a few so far with only minor issues.

I've got my MFs from Pakshak.com. They are very high quality. Previously I got some from Costso and the crappy tires.

just wanted to bring this back to the top a bit...

I just picked up a pack of 20 from Costco (@ 12.79)..and I have to say I'm impressed. They have tags (which bugs me...), bit they are easy to rip off.

Costco gets my vote too. Been using mine for over a year and they've help up well. Some are now being moved to wheel and under hood duty as they're stained but still no problems whatsover.
