Been using the Prima Monster Fluffy for a while as a QD and now ONR towel. I`m wondering how it compares to the new Zaino towel. I like the sound of the zaino towel except for one thing - the part about expecting some fraying. Not sure I want to spend 8 bucks on a towel and have it fray.
I`d also entertain suggestions on other super fluffy detailing towels.
Thanks,
Tony

I prefer the zaino towel for Z6/Z8 over any of the fluffy towels that I have. I do like the fluffy towels for doing QEW washes. I have washed my zaino towels at least 6 times and they still look new.

Looks a lot like the Eurow shag towels I bought last year, just with a higher price.
I am also a big fan of the Zaino towel. I use them to finish the drying of my cars after a Vac N Blow dry method.

I don`t understand why people use an extra thick or fluffy mf to QD. It only absorbs the product and you use more. A nice soft shorter nap mf is the way to go and then you can use an extra fluffy mf for final wipe. JMO

I agree. I use a normal thickness scratch free MF like SONUS to apply products and a little thicker to do a final buff.

I didn`t use my monster fluffy`s much until I started using ONR. The extra nap makes me feel more comfortable taking the ONR off (not sure why but it does).

The extra nap makes me feel more comfortable taking the ONR off (not sure why but it does).Nothing wrong with using a fluffy for wiping. Do you use 2 fluffies? I like to use an ultra soft ww to get the bulk of the ONR off and then use a QD to get the remaining ONR off.

Been trying to figure out what order works for me. I have been using fluffy first and then some QD/Hydro with a WW for the second. Haven`t had a lot of moisture left over from the first pass. Been thinking about using the fluffy for both passes. Does using the WW first work well for you legacy?

That`s why I`m using the QD to help ensure there lubrication for the second pass. I`ll try it your way, makes sense to use the WW first.
