Also - www.speeding.co.uk sell some good quality MFs (the ones I use for the wheels and door jambs).

Obviously only Microfibertech MFs get used for the good stuff

There are no top quality Terry's in the UK (AFAIK), so if you need the best buy Megs. If you just need them for sills, engines, door jambs etc. buy a 50 pack from Costco for about £11.50 or so & throw them away when they get too grubby to wash.

I haven't come across any top quality MF's that you can source from the UK. That's why I have bought AG Group, Australia (fabulous MF wash mitt), Pakshak & DF (both USA).

The Megs UW is ridiculously priced at £9.99. Even with carriage & VAT etc all the Australian & US orders I have had are much cheaper (& better).

I have now built up my MF collection to over 30, but I do have 3 cars to keep clean!
