It's the same material as the cobra 530's. I used this towel again today, and the pile might actually be a bit too thick for quick detailing. It's probably best for a final buff.

No prob, C. I think initially I was really taken back(in a good way) because the towel is sooooo very soft and plush, but, as mentioned above, the pile is too thick for QD. I wouldn't even try it with polish or wax, but AWESOME for a final buff.

Dear Mark

Do you think the Cobra 600-weight towels are too thick for waterless washing?

I bought a three-pack today, but I also bought some of those Mango microfiber towels that are thinner. I have no idea what's best, as I'm a rank newbie.

Hi Jaddie,

I've tried the Cobra 600's a long tim ago, and I don't remember the pile being nearly as long as the chinchillas. You should be just fine!!

I'm going to give one of these a shot on my next order. Not sure what I will use it for yet, but if all else fails I can always sleep on it!

I hope they are not a linting nightmare like the old shamrocks.

Dear Mark

Thanks for replying.

I look forward to trying both the Cobras and the Mangos.

I was thinking to myself: "Self, if these were dyed green, wouldn't they be called Shamrocks?"

However, I still have plenty of Shamrocks on hand, and love them. I have never experienced the insane lintage so many speak of. I have had a few that were a little linty, but I have about 8 or 10 that I use regularly without a problem.
