    Microfiber Question

    Good Morning,

    Wondering if peopel have a stack of "good" MF and a stack fo "cheap" MF? Wondering what people recommend for the cheapies. I have some nice MF from Chemical Guy and thinking of getting some from Cobra, but would like to have some inexpensive ones that I won't worry about as much.

    Thanks
    Eric

    I've been using target's Vroom's for my cheapies. But they're really pretty nice.

    I have heard about alot of people using the sams club/costco towels. They are really cheap. I saw them there, but they were all bagged up where I couldn't feel them, so I left them sitting there for now since I'm overstocked when it comes to cheap MF anyway.

    Cheapies from Sam's, Costco, BJ's are great for interiors, engine bay etc. Once they get too filthy, just toss them. I tossed 3 cheapies after cleaning my engine.

    I keep mine in a storage closet, and can immediately tell the good ones from the lesser ones. Its funny because over time, you can tell the biggest difference as some degrade rather quickly. Almost all of my Cobras still look and feel new.

    I use the target vrooms for things like door jambs or applying plastic dressings. For really dirty things like applying wheel sealants or engines I use whatever giant bulk pack is cheapest and just toss em.

    I have my really really nice MFs (both Cobra and Chemical Guys) and then my cheap ones are all from Target. To be honest with you, the orange ones are great for door jambs and bumpers and all that, but the gray ones are SO nice! I wouldn't mind using it on my truck whatsoever!!! Love those things, and very nicely priced.
