Are there any decent MF towel OTC??

Hi guys, unfortunately my Cobra MF towels didn`t get shipped in time and I need to start a detail on Saturday.

Are there any OTC towels that are good enough for paint?

I`m in Canada....

Thanks!

I saw these turtle wax ones in walmart. The felt pretty plush to the touch and soft, they also had a scratch free border. Bet they would work fine.

Amazon.com: Turtle Wax TW45203 ICE Microfiber MAX Detailing Cloth - Pack of 2: Automotive

Bring a blank cd with you and do the cd scratch test before buying.

IMO, the OTC stuff has gotten MUCH better in the past two years. Bring a CD with you to the store and give the towels a try.

question...for the cd test, how hard do you push down and how long do you `wipe`?

Same as you would on your paint.

Orange and grey Vroom towels at Target are pretty good.

Go to Canadian Tire. They have some very good quality MF there now.
