Has anyone used these towels. They are the grey Vroom towels that come in a 2 pack at Target. They appear to be quite plush, and very soft. I am tempted to test them out because they seem like one of the nicer OTC towels I have seen out there.

Are you referring to the polishing cloths?



I`ve got a whole bag full I`ve not tried yet:



2 MF polishing cloths 14x14 (grey & yellow; I bought the yellow)

2 MF detailing cloths 14x14 (blue)

5 MF towels 14x14 (white multi-purpose)

ww absorbent drying towel 3.19 sq. ft (orange)



They didn`t appear to be terribly expensive, so I thought I`d give them a try.

Maybe that`s what I meant. I couldn`t find the exact product online so I had to remember as best I could from the other day. Actually, I couldn`t find anything Vroom online on the Target site.

I believe you`re talking about the "Detailing Cloths", because the "polishing cloths" are microsuede. I have the five-pack of the detailing cloths, and I have to say that they are probably my favorite paint towels. They are very soft and plush, and they never cause harm to paint. IMO a steal for $6. The only downsides are that they are rather small (only like 12"x12") and they curl up a little in the dryer.

I also saw these towels at Target the other day. They were grey and come in a 2 pack for $3.99. They felt thicker, softer, and more plush than the regular Vroom towels in the 5 pack for $5.99. If I recall correctly, I don`t think that they were the polishing towels.

Which one would be best used to remove wax, "Detailing" or "Polishing" cloths?

Detailing.

I just bought some of their Ultra Plush Detailing cloths. They are blue and come in a two pack. Seriously plush stuff here. Really nice product.



One question....any used those Microsuede cloths? They are much different than anything i`ve seen.

I use MF suede to remove sealants that dry...such as FMJ

"Detailing" for most waxes, but the microsuede "Polishing" for sealants that dry and leave a film of sorts (like 3Dog).



Machboy--I have used the microsuede cloths. They are interesting, and they do quite well for sealants that are applied thin and dry, not regular wax residue. They are a one-trick pony in that respect; there really isn`t anything else to use them for.

I kind of thought that I bought the wrong cloth for the wrong application. I bought the Microsuede polishing cloth before inquiring here as to which cloth to buy for wax removal.

Since I already have them, would the Microsuede Polishing Cloth work well for cleaning windows or interior vinyl, such as applying 303 to the dash?

I believe there is a supplier that recommends the microfiber suede for glass.

What gets a little confusing about Vroom`s MF is deciding which one to buy.



They`ve got the:



Grey 2 pack for $3.99

Blue 2 pack for $3.99 (Maybe the grey and blue are the same?)

5 pack for $5.99

12 pack for $7.99



So many choices...

Well that`s good news. Would they be fine to use to wipe down the dash and other interior vinyl or leather or do I need to use the plush MF?

Really, it`s whatever works for you. I find that for wiping down dust interiors, it`s best to use something that has some nap to hold the dust, but if you are applying protectant, I imagine the suede type would work. Give it a try and let us know how it works.

What makes identifying all the Vroom towels is that the same towels come in different colors, too! The microsuede will be tough to use on glass, too, because it doesn`t absorb that much liquid and it doesn`t trap dirt all that well.
