Have We Heard It All Now?

Check this: Long Island Detail - PolyFiber2 Microfiber

They`re genuine Brazilian 80/20 Polyester/Nylon microfiber. No Nylon byproducts or generic polyamide from unknown sources !!

None of that crappy domestic nylon from unknown sources :think:, I want mine from Brazil, because I`ve always heard that`s where the best plastics come from

I dunno. I`m just happy that everyone now can know where their polyamide is coming from...what a relief!

That site is a work in progress

Leos a good guy but he thinks his towels are the best of the best and they are just as good as any other

How so? The part that Setec quoted from the web site makes zero sense. It`s like they`re trying to make a man-made fiber sound like it`s coming from some Brazilian plastic plant (the kind of plant that grows.. not a manufacturing plant).

I`m still not following here. The point I`m trying to make is that the source for the Polyester and Nylon microfiber yarn is a Brazilian factory where there is far better quality control than say some unknown mill in China or Korea. We`re using branded Nylon as opposed to polyamide which everyone associates as a Nylon by-product.

Perhaps a different way of wording it would make it clearer?

Ignore how the site looks for now, it`s in the process of being built, and yes, "plusher" is a word.

I think people are browsing another site.

DF Concours cotton microfiber towels | auto detailing products | water filters | glass and surface cleaners seems to work better, at least the links are clickable.

Just say that! It is much more clear and makes your point. The way it`s written on the new site left me (and obviously others) scratching my head wondering what it meant.

Thanks, sometimes when one writes something the author knows the meaning and intent and can`t always see it the way others do.

If Leo has something to do with these towels, I will certainly be looking into trying some of them. I really like my DFTowels.

**RTexasF** · 05-08-2008, 09:31 AM

As do I. I had several brand new ones self destruct during their first wash. Leo took good care of me with the replacements which have been just fine.
