Re: Need Glass Towel Recommendation

anyone use the green "vroom" glass towels available at Target ??

I used them the first time with good results.... but after washing.... seems like they do the job, but you can see streaks by the 2nd day.............

Re: Need Glass Towel Recommendation

+1 on the surgical huck for glass for the following reasons:

1. lint free
2. more of a "rough" texture to the towel and in my opinion a better "bite" into the gunk found on windows.

New out of the box they're absorbancy won't compare to a MF, WW or terry towel. After a few uses and washes the absorbancy of a surgical huck is okay at best. These were made more for wiping than absorbing hence the lint free quality.

I won't use huck towels on my paint (100% cotton terry towels only) but ok for door jambs, engine compartments, wheels, etc --- a lot less expensive than your WW, MF & terry towels.

Re: Need Glass Towel Recommendation

I went ahead and ordered the PakShak WW and the Surgical Towels. Hopefully this will be my last investment for doing glass.

I've seen them at my local Harbor Freight, down the isle with their version of a car care section.
