    MF Towel collection

    My wife opened up my cabinet today and said your "Little Auto-geek" party is over.........you don"t need that many towels for the stupid car.........didn"t want to mention I have about 300 more downstairs for her to wash. LOL

    If I read between the lines what my wife is saying is.............I should be buying more expensive ones than what I usually get.

    Would like to see some pics of what you guys have in storage........

    Two options here, Rich.

    Nightly cocktail for the wife with a little Prestone, or a lock on the MF cabinet.

    Oh, and wash your own MF's. She's probably using fabric softener!

    I wash my own mf towels.

    Does she use an approved mf towel cleaner like 3D Towel Kleen or at least All Free & Clear?

    Does she know not to use a fabric softener?

    Drying time and temp is important too. Over cook them and it ruins the fibers.

    LOL, I can guarantee you she will not wash even one of those, I did order some of that Towel Kleen, I usually wash my towels at the laundry matt..........I don"t even know what fabric softener is, so I'm good to go. Thanks for the tip on the temp and time, I"ll keep an eye out on that.

    Hey Paul, I didn"t even tell her about the 20% deal the other day...........hoping I'm home before they deliver that batch. LOL

    I have a 5 drawer filing cabinet full of top quality mf towels from the company that sells rags. I also have a case of 300 towels that I give out to customers after paint correction to encourage better care in the future.

    Bidding on a 12 count of plush edgeless mf towels right now, great price. They are plush on both sides but the only downside is they are red and red bleeds out a couple times in the wash😛

    Lol. You have more towels then me even. My microfiber storage has invaded my apartment's living space. Roommate thankfully doesn't mind. Wives, they're a different story. Good luck!

    I use CG Microwash or DI Micro-Restore. Both work well.
