How many MF do you own and what intervals do you clean them?

I run 17 at the moment and I can`t seem to have any spare! Thanks to S&W :lmfao Now I`m thinking of buying more and setting some MF aside to the rim and interior.

At this moment I have about 90 MF towels. The total number flutuates over time. I buy/try new towels, and then give away the ones that I don`t like. As a detailing enthusiast, I like to keep between 75 and 100 towels on hand in a variety of weaves and sizes. With that quantity, I`m never short of towels and they don`t take up more space than is warranted. I also don`t wind up doing a load of laundry for just a dozen or so towels (waste of time, water, and electricity/gas). I rinse my soiled towels and then place them into a plastic bag the size of the ones you get at the supermarket. When the bag fills up, it`s time to do laundry.

A few hundred of all shapes and sizes, and we use a large amount of them weekly. We also lose way too many to carlessness and people with sticky fingers.

This week I`m breaking out a box of 100 of various shapes and sizes from Poorboy. I had them stashed but why wait, Spring has Sprung.

I wash and fold twice a week. :(

Hey bud! - I have about 25- 30 some general use - then the ones that I let touch the car ;) - three Mullet wax Ulitmate Polishing Cloths - one PB, Three Waffle Weaves from Dwayne and a few other good quality ones - right now Bj Wholesale has a pack of 25 for 12 bucks but they are really thin - I would not use them for anything other than interor cleaning - things like that.

Not sure about the best bang for the buck - but MF towels are something you should not cheap on - cheap ones will scratch your finish - I get mine from Dwayne - mullet wax, poorboy`s they are all good - a good MF will last a long time

The CHee: Ive tried MF/Waffle weave`s from both the generic cheapo`s at Wally world and other large retail stores. Likewise i also purchased quite a few towels from pakshak.com


If you read my MF/Waffle weave review, you`ll know what my answer will be.

Go with the best quality towel sold by a class act like Ranney....Pakshak.com all the way bro.

MF towels are great for wiping off the SSRs, but you`ll probably need something with a little more bite to apply and "work" the products. Consider using cotton applicators or towels for that purpose.

There are many high quality towels available for reasonable prices. Poorboy`s, PakShak, and JT International would be my top choices for best bang for the buck.
