Anyone here use the towels for Detailing? Looking at getting some. The price at Sam's Club is very tempting. Anyone care to share their experience or review of these towels?

I use them, all colors actually, I color code them, Blue=Glass, Green=Interior, Orange=Exterior, Yellow=Doorjams, etc. or when ever they start showing signs of wear and debris, they become carpet cloths or doorjams cloths.

They don't last to long, especially when using the exterior cloths to wax, and dry your vehicle, you can get a 3-4 months out of them if properly cared for. can't beat the price though, and the quality really is not to bad.
 
It depends on the towel type in the bags - Most of the time (90%), they are of the low-nap variety. I use these primarily for interior detailing as I have noticed that they tend to thin out after a few washes and there is a white, semi-hard, "plastic-like" thread that begins to stick through the edging (especially around the corners). However, there are very rare times when the towels are of the good, thick plush variety - I use these all the time on paint with no marring. They have lasted many washes w/o significant deterioration and they edges have remained intact. I assume Proforce does not manufacture the towels and probably sources those that are most convenient to them.
 
I've got a couple hundred of the ProForce MFs and I absolutely love them. For the price, you can't do much better.
 
I actually noticed the label on an old unopened package of MF towels I got from WalMart and noticed they were proforce. They work well at first but I have very quickly demoted them to door jambs/dashboard duty after a few washes.
 
i haven't had a problem with the proforce mf towels and they are better quality then the yellow ones from costco IME...
 
They are my towel for general paint use. Much softer than the Costco brand, especially after multiple washes, and they don't seem to have linting issues.
 
I use them too - pass the CD test for me. As another poster mentioned, you do need to take a look at them every so often since the edge can turn hard, but you get so many for the price that losing one or two here and there is no big deal. I use them for door jams, interior, carpets, wheels, quick detailing to get bugs off, sometimes on glass. The only thing I don't use them for is wax removal since I have some dedicated microfibers for that.
 
So you guys that like them don't have a problem with that lining coming apart and the white plastic lining coming from the sewn edge? All of mine do it and I wash on gentle cycle with MF wash solution. Tumble dry low heat and hang to fully dry.
 
Mine are fine after washing, though since they are so cheap, I end up throwing them away if they don't look 100% (because of grease and gunk or stuff trapped in the fibers).
