Recently, I started a post asking if anyone had any favorite MF`s they would recommend to replace my well-used Cobras. There were a lot of suggestions, and I opted to try a few.
The first that came in were from Chemical Guys:
MONSTER MICROFIBER JUMBO ABSORBER (http://www.chemicalguys.com/MONSTER_MICROFIBER_JUMBO_ABSORBER_p/mic_1100_03.htm)
$9.99 for three seemed like a worthwhile price to me. I ordered 6, and even though I got clipped for $6 in shipping, it still seemed like a decent price.
They arrived today (4 day ground shipping from CA to NC, not too bad). I opened the package and immediately took one out to the driveway, armed with a bottle of Poorboy`s S&W. I proceeded to wipe down to my very dusty NBP Acura CL-S as it sat in the driveway, baking in the 93 degree afternoon sun we`ve got today in NC.
I was astounded at the results -- the surface wiped clean, with NO marring. This is definitely not something I would have attempted with my Cobras, as they are considerably less plush. Even after wiping the entire car down, I still saw no marring. The plushness of these towels is a bit overstated in the picture on CG`s site, but in real life, it`s plenty plush. I didn`t see ANY linting, and after a quick rinse (water only) to get some of the dirt off the towel, I proceeded to wipe the windows down. No linting there, either, only clean glass.
I`m planning on using them to remove a coat of SG off of my Lexus tonight. At this point, I wish I had ordered three more, since there was only an additional $1 bump in the shipping price!!
I`m waiting on other towels from this source as well -- looks like they should be in stock this week:
