    Question long time since purchase of towels

    Hey All!!!
    I'm a new member. I have been looking at some BEAUTIFUL pics!!! WOW!!
    I must admitt that it has been a while since I have found myself in a position where I need new towels. Now there are SO many more choices than a few years back when I bought my waffle weaves. I have a black C5, and we all know how black is. On top of the color I also have stoneguard. I'm looking into the best towels that of course will not cause swirls. I kind of want a all purpose towel but don't know that it would be the best way to go. I would like something that is soft, durable, can be used to dry the car, and will remove polish. Can anyone give me some good tips?

    Sheepskin Mitt --- Washing without swirls
    Drying --- Guzzler
    Polish/ Wax Removal --- Gold Polishing Micro
    QD --- Miracle Towel or Ultra Plush (out of stock temporarily)


    Wash them seperate of all other laundry, very low to no heat, and no fabric softner and they will last forever. I highly suggest Pinnacles or Microrestores liquid wash for use also as it releases the dirt/grime that gets trapped in micros.

    Killer hit them all perfectly! The Guzzler is one of my favorite all time towels, next to the Ultra Plush (which I promise we will have soon)!

    Have you used the gold polishing micro? Does it scratch?
    Is it soft? I kind of looks knitted.

    Do the silk edges really have a better safe guard against scratching? I have never used them however I know someone that has and his don't seem to be as thirsty.

    I have the blue towels their the same as the gold ones just a different colour. The towels work great for product removal(wax/sealants) I havent seen any marring and so far after a few washes the edges have shown no signs of wear. The MFs have a nice bite this another reason i use them on products that take a little more work to remove.

    I agree !


    I personally with miss the blue indigo coloring. Gold seems something best left for ###elry. They will stand out amongst a collection of blue and green micros however. (recently got purple to test from another vendor). I really like the for polish/wax removal.
