Good polishing towel...

Any recommendations for good polishing towels? Dual nap is preferred but not a most. The Autopia Sonus green towels are on sale for $6.50 for two... Thanks!
 
Yes, that green Sonus towel has some bite to it, not a bad price (the sale price), either. You could also try the Edgeless towel from Microfibertech, but you can only buy those in 12-packs now, or the edgeless from Excel Detail.
 
Personally I like Walmart's 100% terry cloth towels, 12 pack for $5. Feel nice and soft to me. Terry cloth will have that extra bite you're looking for vs. a Microfiber towel.
 
I haven't tried the Sonus polishing MF's, but the orange Sonus Der Wunder Buffing Towel is a dual nap towel like you're looking for and it looks like the other premium MF's I've picked up recently so I'm sure it's a great towel.



Here are some of the polishing (dual nap) MF's I've recently tried that are all very high quality (in no particular order):



Danase's Ultra Plush Microfiber Towel



Excel Elite Polishing Towel





PakShak MICROPAK Ultra-Plush Micro Fiber Towel




Poorboy's Deluxe Mega Towel (DMT)



Elite Ultra-Plush. This is a pretty good price for 12 towels, but I get much faster shipping from the other guys.



In my opinion the above are all very good MF's. I would give a slight edge to the Sonus, PakShak, and Poorboy's just because I like the satin binding a little better. In a blind feel test of just the MF I'd be hard pressed to tell the difference from any of the above towels.

Thanks for the info. A lot of those seem to be a little to plush with no bite... I was removing Klasse SG and it was a PITA with plusher towels.

Indeed! They do bite well. I also bought a (4) packages of 8 microfibers/package for $4.67/package from WalMart. Both of these towels are very cost-effective.

They all have a short side and a plusher side which works well for me, but I haven't used SG in ages. You might want to try a CBT or DFT, they seem to work well and the newer style has more bite. I should have had those in my list, since they are a natural fiber terry style towel.
BTW the monster fluffy was awesome for LSP and final buffing!
Yeah, there is nothing quite like the Monster. I'm tempted to try a couple of the new giant size Monsters.
