    Bought some more stuff...

    I was very pleased with my initial Autogeek order, just placed another one...

    1) 3x Pinnacle Foam Wax Applicators
    2) 6x Cobra Mango Microfiber Towels
    3) 1x Pinnacle Ultra Poly Clay

    Did I make some good decisions? I need some new clay for my truck and some applicators for my Natty's Blue. And I can always use some extra microfibers...

    I cannot seem to order without picking up a couple extra micro's either. On the foam applicators, I like to buy them in bulk.

    I was so tempted to order a pack of those mango towels. Unfortunately, reality hit and I had to remove some items.

    I agree that autogeek has some really good stuff and great service. I just placed my second order and am dying to try the stuff (sealant, OCW, etc.) I'm thinking sneaking in a pack of mf's each order from now on. The general purpose polishing cloths are the ones I need the most.

    Those are all great products, I can't comment on what else you need without knowing what you have. Good purchase though.

    I love the ultra poly clay. I like to clay often to make sure my car stays contaminant free so that product was made for me.

    I think you will be very pleased with the Ultra Poly Clay. I've used mine a couple of times and it is great! However, on one car it was not "gettin' it done" so I switched to Clay Magic. It sems to me the Ultra Poly is perfect for a car that has previously had a tougher clay job. I hope to soon try out the DP Clay.

    you are exactly right Reddwarf. Ultra Poly Clay is an "enthisiasts clay" for tough contamination you really need the heavy duty stuff, but to maintain your detailed car contaminant free Ultra Poly is great because you can use it as often as you want and it won't compromise your wax or sealant.

    Can I be the sole person with a dissenting opinion and claim they were less than impressed with the Mango's ?
    The miracle towels.. are excellent.. the mango's, well... they leave little bits of mango on my dash and some other interior parts....
    they did hold up in the wash though....
    I will probably not buy them again, for those light duty MF applications, I use the cheapies at BJ's (25 for $10) and they work great...(Dash, windows, wheels....)
    and are thicker....

    I was a little disapointed with the Mango's as well i was expecting quite a thick towel but there very thin, so i use them as general work towels or on glass, not had any problems with mango bits coming off them.

    I have never experienced little bits coming off of my mango towels either. But can I say that the mango towel is just one towel in a line of many. Detailers benefit from having several types of towels in their arsenal to tackle various jobs and with the mango's lower price point it provides a more economical choice for the detailing tasks that don't require a super plushy MF. I prefer the mango MF's to the MF's that are sold through the wholesale clubs whose edges always seem a bit stiff and scratchy to me. Just my 2 cents.
