This is a great lesson in not letting anyone else wash your towels... especially when you get new towels.

I did not notice till I had dried most of the car, but as I came back around I notices a bit of lint.

Note to self: Hide Microfiber Towels and hide them well!

I just told my wife the other night that I would take care of my detailing towels, for this reason right here. Sorry to see that!

Learned that lesson before I used the MFs on the car, I'm surprised with that much lint you didn't spot it.

Have fun cleaning the MFs. I ended up using a sticky lint roller and picking pills off by hand, a failry time-consuming bit of fun. :D And I'd washed a LOT of towels that day. Good chore for in front of the TV while you have half an eye on something else.

I spray down the car with DP QD when I dry so it did not pop up till it got dry as I passed on to lint up the next panel! I still have lint in cracks and nooks on the car, its like going to the beach and finding sand in your ears a day later!:p

What did you look like when you dried yourself off. If that much was on the microfiber. There must be a ton on the regular towels. Did you get super shag bath towels?

Definately lint.

Got some nice towels you hang in the guest bath room, no one every will actually use them but they look nice!:D

Lint for sure, still picking the fibers out of the cracks and crevices on the car.
