Quality MF`s that won`t break the bank... Asking for the impossible

**Custom Care** · 02-02-2013, 12:51 AM

So, I was at my local Sam`s club today and I ended up picking up a pack of ProForce Commercial Spray Bottles - 6 Pack - Sam`s Club and a couple packs of ProForce Microfiber Towels - 24 count - Sam`s Club .

I know they aren`t the best out there but after hearing a couple good reviews about them and seeing them mentioned in a few posts I decided to give them a try. At 50c a towel if they don`t work out I can just give them to my wife for cleaning towels. Either way it goes I will definitely be investing in some good quality Korean fiber MF`s down the road.

In the perfect world they`d work out awesome and I`d go back and get a pack in the other two colors then use green for waterless/rinseless washes, blue for first wipe on glass, yellow for interiors, and orange for either QD or wheels and tires(wish they had some in black).

If anyone would like me to send them a couple so they could do some comparisons, especially for any of the tasks listed above, just let me know. I`d be glad to see how that turns out. They`re 16x16 80/20 blends.

PB`s DMT towel is a really good towel. A really good workhorse towel.

There are several good microfiber towels out there sold by several retailers. Its kinda like finding that paste wax that gives you that look you want. There`s some I love and will always have. There`s just several choices out there. Rolled edge, edgeless, microbanding, silk banding, plush, super plush, etc, etc. Then you get into blends and gsm`s of towels and sizes. Its quite a lot to decipher.

Im with Hooland Patrick, Bunky, Ron, and Cooter on the PBs towels. When I call Steve I just order the Green and Gold towels so mine are all the same except 1, that I dont know where it came from. I do have some blue work towels from PBs and several junk towels from Wally World and Sams Club.

I think everyone`s missing a big point here. Yes, we need MF towels to do all kinds of work... but you only need a nice ones for finishing and wipe downs. I use work towels 90% of the time. In a detail I go through about 50+ towels, between interior, trim, drying, engine, glass and final wipe down. out of those 50 or so maybe 5-7 of those are finishing for wax removal or polish removal.

Spend 30$ on 6-8 nice towels and use regular work brands for the rest, problem solved.

Might want to also think about how many steps you`re gonna do on a vehicle also.

Another detailer once told me he didn`t spend a ton of money on expensive towels for things like rinseless washes. He said he had nice towels for polish and wax removal but that`s all they were used for

It makes sense especially if you are a professional.

Its hard to beat the gold Plush Jrs from AG/ACC and UltraPlush from Pakshak for the money, dont lint, stay soft wash after wash, and are the perfect density for waterless, rinseless, polish removal, lsp removal, and final pass.

It makes sense if you are polishing afterwards. For maintenenace wash, I rather use a high quality for rinseless and waterless wash for my weekly use.

Has anyone tried the Miracle Towel? Miracle Towel 16x 24 inches

I don`t know how it works over in the US but over here the answer to this question will depend on just how many you are after. Buy the branded towels which are priced for selling one or two and, frankly, you get seriously gouged. If you can bring yourself to buy something like 100 then you are in a position that the wholesalers will talk to you so you can buy towels at a fraction of the price and (if you do a bit of homework) you can actually get the same towels sold by some brands but without them having their cut.

So do your homework and you can make a good saving on volumes.

I had a few. It is a nice enough towel but there are softer towels of similar weight to be had for less money

I used to buy these but found that they mar after a couple washes. Good for wheels, interior and windows, though.
