    Found a MF towel that doesn't lint!!!

    When used in conjunction with a QD.

    Cobra Shamrocks= lint
    Cobra 530's= lint
    Adam's plush= lint

    I bought a Mothers OTC claybar kit and it came with a yellow MF towel. It's really soft, and doesn't lint!! It's not as thick the previous 3, but not super thin either. It's my favorite so far!!!

    Re: Found a MF towel that doesn't lint!!!

    Have you tried our Edgeless (Indigo, Arctic) towels? They're similar to the Mothers and Meguiars buffing cloths, but much higher quality IMO. No lint whatsoever and they work very well for buffing off any kinds of waxes or polishes. I would recommend something thicker for QDing, though. The best towels in that case would be the Supreme 530s, but since you don't like them, the Cobra Deluxe Jrs would get my vote for QD duty.

    None of my MF towels lint and I mean none of them. Guess you jsut got bad batches?

    I have alot of SMP MF towels both polishing and plush and 4 of the limited supply Cobra MF towels that AG has for sale. Those don't even lint and I haven't even washed them yet.

    I'm partial to the Poorboy's DMT and UMT towels. Griot's Garage towels work nicely as well without linting.

    I've never purchased a Cobra towel but I received some freebies from other orders and they all linted like crazy. That's why I never tried Cobra. It's the only AG product I've had issues with.

    I bought a Mothers OTC claybar kit and it came with a yellow quick detail towel. I'm assuming it's a 70/30 blend, it's really soft, and doesn't lint!! It's not as thick the previous 3, but not super thin either. It's my favorite so far!!!

    Mothers Microfiber Ultra Soft Quick Detail
    The mf towel included in the clay kit seems a little different from the Mothers 20x24 mf towel. The label said 80/20 on the Mothers Clay Kit.

    As for the Mothers 20x24 mf towel, it is a good dual nap towel but it is also a nice size. It is not that big to be ungainly when damp like some larger towels can be but larger than the more common 16x24 towel.
