Just the opposite for me, cobras enduced scratches, linted badly and the ww do not absorb very well. AG has a lot of great products but these are one of the few that are sub-par.

well... sometimes some people have different experiences than others (good or bad) on certain products. if you haven't tried the grey 530 supreme's they are one of the nicest microfibers out there. i'll continue to the AG microfibers until i experience any problems. sorry to hear your experience has not been a good one...

Re: MF's from Costco

The only Cobras I had lint were the green all purpose micros which I don't know if they have anymore? But I loved those micros still!

This is very true, and glad you are happy with your microfibers. Like I said above, one of the few products that I wasn't happy with from AG.

Never treid Pakshak before...which ones are you using? I used to get the Cobra Ultra Plush, then I treid the yellow plush ones from Chemical Guys when the Cobra were out of stock, and now I just buy Megs Supreme Shine in cases of 36 at a much lower price. I do like the Cobra better, but not at almost twice the cost.

Always looking for something better though.

Re: MF's from Costco

Get the Ultra-Plush towels and their super soft waffle weaves absorb better than any other one out there.

Will do, thanks!

I may have to wait a while as I have 6 Cobra WW on the way, and I still have about 20 Supreme Shines still in the package.

I also only use them for underhood or wheel duty, and a little interior stuff. I do kind of like that you get so many for so much, makes me not mind throwing them away. Depending on the job, a lot of those towels end up in the "One time use" bin (garbage can)

Re: MF's from Costco

Those yellow MF's from Costco will scratch a CD. Do yourself a favor and buy some Cobra MF's.
