Vroom, Viking MF Towels

blownvert · 01-09-08, 08:02

I have tried the OTC viking MF towels and I have to say these are pretty nice for the price. Now I do have online MF towels that are good quality, but also expensive. I havent went to target yet for the Vroom towels. I want to though. What really is the difference between online MF towels and OTC towels like these brands. They are much cheaper and probably do the same thing. They could even be just relabeled. Is it really necessary to order more expensive towels online? These towels seem fine.

I actually use the VROOM MF towels alot and the difference I think is that they are not thick and plush like the waffel weave towels. They are thin and about a 12x12 square size. But I like them and they work fine for me.

I got a multipack of the orange vroom towels for christmas, and I think they're absolutely fine for detailing use.

The Vroom towels seem to work really well I Have tons of towels from all over But the Orange Vrooms I use for multi use and the grays are nice for paint work.

Yeah, the gray ones are really nice - quite soft, with a dual weave.

I bought 15 of the super plush gray Vroom MFs back when Target had them on clearance for $1.00/ea. Very thick and durable, but they all lint like crazy now and the only thing I can practically use them for is interior wipe downs.

All my towels most of them lint alot after i put them in the washer/dryer.

I've never had any issues with mine linting?

Neither have I. Are you washing only microfibers items by themselves? This is important, because it will pick up lint form other fabrics very easily.

I just washed all my towels yesterday in for so long. I put MF towels and those yellow flannel towels and applicator pads.

That is your problem then. Wash only microfiber towels together!!! Nothing else, especially flannel. The MF towels will catch all of the lint from the flannel. The foam applicator pads and microfiber pads are OK though, although I usually wash my foam pads separately also.
