Standard MF for drying

**mihilc** · 02-28-2006, 02:42 AM

I have a couple of standard microfiber cloths bought from a local supermarket. I also have a synthetic chamois and a natural one.

I use to dry my car using synthetic one just to remove the water and after that, I use MF for drying. The problem is that I`m not really happy with this method. It seems that swirl marks have started to apear.

Now, I can`t find in my country a waffle drying towel.

I can buy: a squeege, The absorber, or 100% cotton towel (not USA made).

What should I do?

P.S. i`m using a wash mitt and I`m very carrefull with it (automagic one) and a wash&wax shampoo also from Automagic. I`m also using only one bucket for shampoo.

If you are able to order over the Internet you can get a Sonus Ultimate Wash Kit

from http://www.autopia-carcare.com/son-ultwash-kit.html

Or just a single drying MF towel.

Stay away from cheap MF. Your correct they do scratch.

You can use supermarket MF for interior cleaning.

If you are limited to what you can buy in your country then let us know

where you live. Maybe there is another member here from your area that could help you.

I`m from Romania. I guess I`ll order from internet.

Can you order over the Internet or are you limited to purchases from Romania?

Can you get a premium cotton towel? The softer the better.

EDIT..

You can use the Internet ... Good.

I have 3 regular pakshak WW`s and 3 irregulars. I cant tell a difference. Don`t be afraid of buying the irregulars

Good to hear... Thanks.

After posting the above I ordered two.

Agreed. Pak`s irregulars beat other`s regulars.

do you have to wash these after every use, or can you just sun-dry?

**SilverLexus** · 03-06-2006, 04:06 PM

I wash after every use to make sure I get all the dirt out.

Aloha,

How many of you have the following mini washer. I think it would be great for small loads of towels.

With Aloha,

Ranney

"A convenient way to clean dirty and soiled garage rags and towels. Simply fill the 7-liter bucket with water and soap, and within minutes you have clean re-useable towels. Repeat the process with water only for the rinse cycle. Compact 16" x 15" size and convenient built-on carry handle makes this easy to use, and runs on standard 110V household current (AC adapter included)."

You can find the pic of the washer by doing a search for "Mini Washer"

Eh, I have one of those large clear plastic bins from walmart that I throw all of my dirty towels in. Once that fills up, I know that I have one super sized load of MF`s for the laundry machine. I have enough towels to last me between washings. The miniwasher wouldn`t really benefit me
