    as others have mentioned on here, there are plenty of good, high quality mf towels out on the market. some of the boutique brands are all hyped to be the best out there, and sometimes it`s simply not true. there are plenty of other options that easily compare equally, if not better. having different mf towels is like having different tools for a job. some are going to serve a better purpose/task more than the other. it`s good to have a variety...

    the best offering from Eurow is the shag towels hands down, and they are equally as nice as the monster fluffy...



    easy choice here ---> 3 pack of monster fluffies $24.95 OR 10 pack of the Eurow shag towels for $21.10...

    The Eurow is without a doubt a plush towel. I order a pack. They are shag on both sides. So plush they are to much plush for me. Hard to remove waxes or sealants that make a hard bond. Thats why I recomend the CG`s towels. Or you can have some of both, a super plush like the Eurow and CG`s ....

    what is the point of having the plushest towels? Can someone tell me what plush means? A fabric? Like people said above you cant use these for buffing off wax/polish, but great for QD. There are so many towels out people like/dislike. Its all ones opinion.

    Wow, I must have been gone a long time! The softest, thickest towel in my inventory is the DF Towel. I love them, they work great for QD, drying with QEW, and are not bad for buffing wax, though there are better towels for that. They are by far my most used towels, and are about 5 years old at this point and holding up great.

    I *think* that in this context "plush" means a thick, deep, long nap.



    The deep/thick nap makes it easy to use them with extremely low applied pressure, good for situations where marring is the main concern. And that thick nap can be good for trapping contaminants when doing things like QDing.



    I use them for QD/ONR, both of which I generally avoid due to concerns about marring. The Monster Fluffies give me a little added safety.

    I *really* like my CBT/DFTs, but with the crappy water situation I`m constantly struggling with they eventually get too stiff for softer paints. For people who don`t have such issues, yeah, they`re a great towel, good for a very wide range of applications. I`ll still take the Monster Fluffy for QDing though

    Different approach here; I use various types of MFs (and other towels), each one being what *I* prefer for the given task. Though I really get by with three or four types: suede-style, plush, ultra-plush, and somewhat aggressive. It`s just the way I usually tend to approach stuff; there always seems to be *one* type of [whatever] that`s perfectly suited to the task at hand (at least IMO).

    That is a good way to use your towels. I do have others than CG`s that I use for specific tasks.

    Have you ever done any testing to determine what the problem is? Perhaps you have a malfunctioning softener? Hach makes some little inexpensive test strips to check for total hardness as well as specific minerals/metals. Of course, your water softener people would probably check for you as well.

    Setec Astromomy- Noting that I haven`t gotten *too* involved with figuring this out ...



    According to my plumbing contractor the softeners are working fine :think: I really oughta delve into this but I just don`t get around to it. Yeah, my bad



    I`ve considered going with some different system (e.g., deionizer) but replacing the softeners would be a monumental undertaking due to their positioning/plumbing runs/etc.; my builder didn`t make allowances for future changes



    I *thought* I had things better under control, towels had been coming out nice and soft with the vinegar rinse. But the last few weeks things have gone downhill again. Can`t think of anything (under my control) that`s changed AFAIK so no idea what`s to blame :nixweiss

    Maybe a good wash in some strong Degreaser (with hot water) and a couple of rinses.

    I am suffering from the same issues - I also have been doing the vinegar rinse..



    I have my towels in the washer for the 5th time with no detergent and water I boiled on the stove... After the 4th round I let them dry (hang dry) and I noticed they were MUCH softer... this morning when I woke up I decided one more round of boiling water in the washer should FINALLY do the trick!!

    This is really easy: Hach - Total Hardness Test Strips, 0-425 mg/L, 50 tests



    What I found with mine (and I`m in the middle of trying to adjust it out), that the water stops being soft before the flow meter says it`s time to regenerate.
