Microfiber Towels
- Thread starter BlksvtCobra01
- Start date
I buy my towels at the rag company or from autopia-car care, cobra towels are really nice, the more plush the better, e.g edgeless/tagless
these are good for the money
always remember to rip the tag off before using

I like Adams microfibers but they are expensive. For more every-day towels I go with Rag Company Eagle Edgeless -- great pricing and a solid towel.
Be sure to test your towels but dragging them across the palm of your hand. If you feel it stick, it's a low quality towel.

Doubt been browsing amazon myself thinking of the rag company. Still need to look at the Griots stuff.

Get mine at O’Reilly’s, they do pretty good but don’t last as long as I like. Although I put them through a lot cleaning the cars with a waterless cleaning process.

My man,..............lol
Do not use a cheep towel on that Kona paint, it will scratch it. I have never seen a good quality towel at the box stores.
Griots has good towels as well as Adams but both are expensive.

I use these quite a bit.
Rag Company = Adam's (Edgeless) (Rag company made them for Adam's at one point)
I've probably go about 30-40 orange 16"x 16" edgeless from Rag Company.
Great microfibers for sure. I am currently looking for a really good quality glass microfiber as the rag company ones I buy (suede) tend to leave streaks. Plus, I may be switching back to all Adam's products, specifically the Glass cleaner (currently use CG)
Rag company also has giveaways, they ship pretty much same day and offer free shipping under $100. You'll also usually get a couple of free rags with your orders too.

Been buying my microfiber towels from Ian at Microfiber Tech in San Diego for well over 10 years. Still use and have my original detailing towels from Tech. Have a large collection of waffle weave and high quality detailing towels. He only stocks top quality towels.

Haha, yeah man, I hear ya. I am totally appreciating the time you must have spent buffing it out! It sparkles in the sun.
I use the Rag Company or Auto Geeks (indigo Microfiber towels) you should watch Matt Moreman's videos (obsessed Garage) on youtube, he has a bunch of videos on detailing cars and all the products he uses.
Griots pfm work well for me. Some of the CGs towels are nice as well; but not all of them.
If you consider Griot's a thread ender, I question your overall knowledge of car detailing as EVERYTHING Griot's has is rebranded from a true manufacturer. They prob buy their mf towels from China as many others do and resell at a profit. South Korean mf are the better route and much higher quality.
I recommend pakshak.com and theragcompany both. Pakshak used to have a super fine final buff towel that was softer than most bath towels. They lost their supplier and that one bit the dust a few years ago. I hoarded a few and guard them like my first born. (See my older posts for reviews of pakshak products). They do still have these detailing towels called Silver Surfers and the are kickass:
MICROPAK 16" x 16" "Silver Surfer" Ultra-Plush Micro Fiber Towel
I do like the Edgeless from ragcompany but the Surfers are a step up. The Pluffles from ragcompany are a great waffle weave and paired with a leaf blower, no more water spots! They are also a great detail towel.
I've been away from svtp for awhile as I sold my last terminator in 2016 but if anyone needs anything pm me.
