    I have had pretty good luck CG microfibers. Their green towels are especially nice and plush and fluffy.

    I thought those towels Finick posted are yellow though?? They look yellow in person to me. This could make a good FB post where everyone posts what they see in the pic. LOL.

    The newer/unused one definitely seems more orange to me than yellow. The older one that’s been humiliated is a color I don’t think has ever existed before. It looks pretty bad. I think it’s time to retire the older ones, because the fibers are kind matted down and not fluffy anymore.

    My step brother gave me a dozen of those green ones they have, and you’re right they’re pretty nice. I have no complaints about these orange ones either, honestly.

    I’ll eventually retire the towels, maybe donate a lot of the ones I don’t reach for to a cleaning service (have to look into that) and probably end up mostly just using creature edgeless towels for everything, and maybe scooping up some edgeless 365s to see if I like them.

    My eagles will likely either be demoted to engine bay duty or thrown out, and I’m gonna give the minx another fair try, but I suspect it’ll still be a lint monster.

    Love the 365’s great for polish and Lsp removal. Creatures are probably my favorites all around. I like the Eagles for rinseless and waterless

    I really have grown to like the creatures. They’re just a great “do it all” towel.

    I’ve tried so many times to enjoy using my eagles. I’ve never tried them for rinseless/waterless, but I feel like they’d be so damn heavy if they were saturated with rinseless solution.

    Granted, since I’ve moved to primarily using the BRS, that’s probably why I haven’t tried them for that.

    I have some pearl weave towels I’ve been playing around with as well. Trying to see if I can find a place for them.

    Soon it will be time to turn in the company car and this turn in will be perfect. The carpet in the back seat got dirty from tool boxes, parts, catalogs, suitcases and various other things. Wolfgang carpet & upholstery restorer, a small brush and a white towel solved the problem.
