i could use some feedback on how the experienced-pros dedicate their mf towels usage to avoid and cross contamination. i currently have 3 colors of mf towels- one brand, for all purpose polish-wipe-buff ,and then an assortment of mixed colors. i also have mf windsheild and glass cloths, and waffle weave for drying
my thoughts are for the all purpose mf towels
1. exterior - wheels and chrome,
2. exterior - paint for buff of polish and sealants and wax
3. interior - cleaning and protectant
4. exterior - for quick detailers, spray on wipe offs, drying of waterless wash and rinseless wash.

some input and/or correction would be greatly appreciated

Sounds good, now you'll need about 50 mf's to make four separate washing worthwhile. :xyxthumbs:

i am going to be doing my first full detail this weekend, so I will finally be able to use all my MF. I will take some pictures of different uses.

I wash in batches as follows:
Wheels
Glass
Drying
Wax
The sooner you wash the stained towels the better. I do sometimes soak the engine/wheel towels in APC for days with no problems.
