Talk about water spots

I purchased a 3 pack of the white Griots Micro Fiber towels. These were the my first experience with MF's and I have been using them for wax/polish removal only. Recently I have noticed tiny marrs in my paint and after closer examination it looks like the cause are the Griots towels. They have also started to lint like crazy after 2 washes.



Has anyone else on the forum had problems with these?



I have now have switched over to the neatitems MF's but it still pisses me off as to what I paid for these things. 3 for $18 I believe.



I know Griots is a good name but I plan on calling and complaining tomorrow.
 
www.pakshak.com. I just got two of them and they are pretty good. Very comparable to the neatitems which i also have. Well it is a little bigger than the ones i got from neatitems. It is 16"x16", I believe the neatitems MF towels I have are 15"x15". Take a look at the pakshak.com site for the pics of the towels. The tag on the towel says it is 70% Polyester and 30% Polyamide. So they are good quality.

Peace

Pathfinderguy....



I wouldn't if I were you. I plan on calling Griots tomorrow and letting customer service know about how crappy they are...



I did just order two MF"s from that Pakshak.com. I'll let you know how they are....
 
Update: Well I called Griots today and explained the situation. They were really good about it. They offered to refund my money or replace the towels. The towels are about a year old so I think I will give some new ones a try. What the heck it can't hurt. Worse case scenario is I use them for glass cleaning.



Their customer service is really good...:xyxthumbs
 
Yea I have noticed that mine lint like there is no tomorrow. Shame cause otherwise they are awesome towels. Good price, great plushness and nice size.
 
I agree! I sent back a pair of horns that I never put on my car over a year later and they refunded my money. They may be expensive and may not have the greatest stuff (although they have some pretty kick @ss stuff) but their customer service is exemplary.

I just picked up some of the yellow Griot's MF and noticed that one side is more plush than the other. This maybe a stupid question but does that mean I should only use the more plush side on the paint? (my first encounter with MF)
 
It is amazing what some people can do to make our lives challenged! They throw away their floor mats and grind dirt into the floor and dump every beverage they drink into the seats and appear shocked!! you should charge for the service...

Wow!
That is the second absolutely disgusting interior that I have seen here on TID today. What is this world coming to? People are just trashing their cars, and paying us to clean up their mess! Why would they have a car professionally detailed , if they are going to treat it like that.
Great job of cleaning it up and restoring it.:thumbup: What was your process?
 
Awesome job, that thing was disgusting!! I'm not sure I would even take a client like that, just knowing that it was going to be wrecked again as soon as it left my possession.

Nice work!
 
Outstanding work!!!, if this car had showed up at my facility a comment like this would go through my head "You are going to PAY!!!!!!" and then the person would be in the ambulance after hearing what I would charge as that is a "Biohazard" job.
