Microfiber Towel to remove sealant/wax on black car

[jproy12]

I'm wondering, what the best microfiber out there? I'm looking for one that will remove wax and sealant without causing any swirl/marks on my Tuxedo black car? I see various companies, from Chemical Guys, Meguiars, Blackfire, etc...

I already have all my products as per this thread: http://www.autogeekonline.net/forum/...-wax-wash.html I also have "The Cookie Monster Buffing Towel V2.0", which have been great for me and love them (almost tempted to buy again), but looking to see if there's anything better on the market, can be found here:
eShine Canada: The Cookie Monster Buffing Towel V2.0

Thanks!

You could use Microfiber Wax Removal Towel, buffing cloth, Arctic White Microfiber Towel, microfiber cloth, detailing towel, Super Plush Junior Microfiber Towel, 16 x 16 inches, or Supreme 530 microfiber towel, buffing cloth, drying towel, detailing towel, 530 towel.

Thanks for the links, I'll definitely check them out.

As for the link, I know, as soon as I posted, realized that I shouldn't have linked another website I just can't edit my first post

As long as you have a decent, CLEAN towel you should be fine. Anything from a 360 or better yet the 530 would serve you well. You might go all the way to the 850 "White Whale" for a great towel for polish or LSP. Then there is also the 500 GSM Korean edgeless as your final wipe, although it's a bit 'floppy' for compound/polish removal. (All from Microfiber Tech and all of which are an amazing value).

A competing and similar unit would be the orange ones from The Rag Company (although that towel isn't as soft, plush, or as high a (real) GSM as the gray ones from MFT.)

There was a suggestion for the Artic White, that is a nice little (albeit expensive) towel and should be nice on that single stage paint.... but it's a bit floppy.... nowhere near as sturdy, soft, or as thick as the White Whale.

Another VERY good towel is the polishing towel from Duragloss. That puppy is NOT cheap, but it is VERY good. (They have a larger unit, same construction if you're interested.... and don't mind paying $24 for one towel.)

The key to ANY of these (or other) quality microfiber towels is wash and dry them at least twice before using them. That first couple of washes you could get away with a clear detergent mixed with Woolite, (or maybe just Woolite). After you start using them with various detailing products a dedicated microfiber detergent tends to do a bit better job at cleaning/fluffing/making the fibers stay absorbent. (FWIW I use Wolfgang.)

I use my better 530 gsm towels.

The Miracle Towels from AG are also good towels to use for wax and sealant remover.

Your "better" ones??? Which ones are those Bill?

The Cobra 530's were the first towels of that GSM that I bought years ago. then I found MFT, and saw the light!

The blue 530's from MFT... IMO are softer, have a little bit thicker/tighter weave, and are more absorbent (which make them not only great compound and polish towels but pretty nifty drying towels as well).

Athough the Cobras are actually thcker top to bottom when you measure... it's just that they seem to have a longer loop/pile albeit not as tight.

Sorta hard to explain and they're both good towels I just reach for the MFT units 95 out of 100 times.

Not Bill, but that's okay. I have some 530's I got off Ebay that don't feel like the 530's I get from MFT. So I put those on compound removal duty. I use my good ones from MFT when it comes to polish and LSP removal.

I prefer brand new towel for LSP
Meguiars supreme shine works great for me.

Besides some of the ones that have already been listed
and available from AGO, as well as other vendors...

I find that these are very nice (some will say expensive)
