FOR LESS THAN 50 CENTS EACH!!!!!!!
You can even buy 4 different colors, and keep interior separate from paint, and wheels separate from glass! WOW.

Been using them myself...Good for applying vinyl cleaner, detailing engine, door jambs and best yet for cleaning windows. I use my plush ones for polishing, wax removal etc..

You can really tell a difference? I just can't make myself pay double, triple, or even quadruple or MORE per microfiber, when these have served me so well over the years, from daily drivers to cars that have literally been in magazines, my customers are always thrilled.

Re: Incredibly Cheap Finds
I will not use sams club towels on paint period! have you ever felt the edges of those towels?? They are rough. Some guys use them for paint and say well just don't touch the edge on the paint....Yep that works but why would I waste my time trying to be cautious and worry about touching it when I can spend a couple bucks and have a piece of mind??
I have had those scratch the hell out of dash gauge plastic, chrome wheels etc I use them for interiors wheels wells etc.

I have never noticed this happening, but it is food for thought without a doubt. It's just that without exaggerating the 'other' microfibers on the market are literally quadruple or even quintuple the cost of these. 500% markup for soft edges? I am not saying they aren't better, but I can use that money elsewhere I guess. If it came down to it, and I had a client with a Maserati or Bugatti, I totally agree these finite changes make an impact, but my results thus far for the past few years have been stellar and even on my own vehicles I can't say I've taken notice of marring due to edges - BUT, now I WILL be much, much more cognizant of it!
