In another thread I mentioned buying these to use for GDWM.` I used them for the first time a few days ago and last night I washed them.` I washed them by themselves with just a little Purex (1/4 capfull).` I then put them in the dryer for 10 minutes and took them out damp to air dry.` When I took them out, I noticed that almost every corner had some stiff backing material popping out.` The corners on almost every towel were sorta folded down and stuck to the towel due to the stiffer material sticking to the microfiber.` The backing material is very rough and could easily scratch paint.`


`


Two packs of these only cost me $30, but I would rather have 7 or 8 towels that can be washed and reused on paint. I`m going to return these and maybe try microfibertech`s 600 gsm green/gray towels.`

I have some Sam`s towels that I use for interior, wheels etc and have not had that problem.

If you start shopping around for MF towels you`ll notice allot of places sell the same towels with a different name and price.

eddiehaskell- At least you have plenty of MFs for non-detailing/household use.
