im about to place an order over at exceldetail... and im not sure exactly how many towels i will need to polish/seal my car (mid sized sedan- 2002 ACura TL)...



my process im assuming i will be doing is...

SSR 2.5 Cutting

SSR 2.5 Polishing

Z-PC Polishing



then

1-2 coats of z5

1-2 coats of z2



im kind of on a budget as of right now, so i dont want to order too many towels then i really need...



thanks

Aloha Mike,



2-3 - towels - SSR 2.5 Cutting

2 - towels - SSR 2.5 Polishing

2 - towels - Z-PC Polishing



then

1-2 - towel - 1-2 coats of z5

1-2 - towel - 1-2 coats of z2





To be on the safe side, I would recommend at minimum 10 towels. Just in case a couple drop on the ground. :D



With Aloha,

Ranney :)

Exactly, I always recommend having 3 towels per product removal......

So, Im no math major, but 3 x per individual product........

That`s good advice :xyxthumbs



Always get more towels than you think you could ever need.

Just buy a bunch, about 20-25 at least.

However many you buy, it will be 3 not enough!

Then you buy a bunch more and it will still be 3 not enough!

Get the picture?



Seriously, however, buy twice or even three time the number you think you will need, remembering that about 1/3 to 1/2 will be waiting for the washing machine....

Buy 30 Excel Supremes. That will be enough, for now...

Go with these guys advice, buy a lot. I decided I would start to supply (sell) MF, so I ordered about 70 towels, but ended up using more than I sold and have pretty much stopped trying to sell them. lol Guess thats why they say dont use your own stuff. lol I think Scareface said that.

Agreed. I have over 100 microfiber towels and I still buy new ones to try them out. Just like horsepower, you can never have too much!
