I have read and am still very confused on different MFs/Towels for different jobs. Will you guys please help me get squared away?





I will be buying some DF microfibers for drying duty.



What is the best for removing polishes (ie. Menzerna twins)?



What is the best for removing sealants/waxes (ie. Zaino, S100)?



What about autofibers.com or pakshak.com?



I have looked at Viper and CBT, but I am not sure if those are the best for my purposes.



Thanks in advance. :xyxthumbs

Personally, I think you`re trying too hard at this.



I`m pretty sure many, if not most, people have only ONE set of MF terry towels that they use for all detailing jobs, and a WW or two to dry.



I`d look into reviews of individual towel sellers/brands myself.

I am sure you are right; I tend to do that :D



Do you have any brand recommendations for me?



I do some more searching.

To remove Wax/Polish I`ve been using the Meguiars Ultimate Wipes which work well and last. I`d imagine any high quality MF will be just as good.



I just bought the Magic Towel from CMA for QD purposes only, I`ll post my opinion when they arrive.



I was using a CBT which fell apart unfortunately. The CBT is very nice for final wipedown but a little too frail IMHO, mine is beat after 8 months of use. I tried using the CBT to remove NXT once but found the Megs MF was much easier and faster. CBT is best for those who are gentle and don`t have a lot of trim to catch on.

Zane0- I too have *many* different MFs, but you could get by just fine with some WWs from Ian at (?- used to be Microfibertech.com) and some plush ones from YoSteve.
