As I was passing Halfords in Solihull today I thought I`d pop in for a look, my own local branch is smaller and as it`s in the country and only seems to stock stuff for Farmer Jones to clean his tractor.
I was surprised to find that they have added both Microfibre towels and clay bars to their range. I don`t know if this is news to anyone or if they`ve done this for ages and my branch just hasn`t received the updated stock list yet, I think they still use pigeon post around here. I didn`t bother asking any of the staff if these were new products as most of them looked as if they were due their afternoon bottle and burping, why aren`t these kids in school on a weekday?
The MFT (product number: 680140) was £2.49 it`s 75% polyester 25% Polyamide Fibre and was made in Korea.
The "Surface Cleansing Bar" (product number 635797) was £1.67 reduced from £3.33 weighs 300* and was made in Japan. Looks like they might be trying to offload this and end the product line.
I bought one of each just to try them out although they were so cheap I just can`t believe they`ll be any good, so they`ll get tried on the family beater. I`ll let you know how I get on but I`m afraid any review won`t be terribly subjective as I have never used either product type before so I have nothing to compare them to.
If anyone has already tried these with unpleasant results please let me know.
