Not trying to defame AG here, I love most of the products (and have the credit card bills to prove it), but the Cobra towels are the achilles heel of the AG online store.
I got my sample 12 oz. of 205 this week and used it on my top paint surfaces today. I used a white CCS pad and DA on setting 5. It did a great job removing the micro tick marks that I previously...
I have some Supreme Shines that are excellent, but I have many more than lint like crazy, especially when used with a quick detailing spray. The bad ones must have...
I'm on a mission for the perfect QD, so this thread has me interested. I've been using Meguiar's UQD and 135 but have had a lot of streaking the day after use and need to repeat. The "hydrophobic"...
"spa" towels are what women use to wrap their hair in at "the spa". They are super absorbent microfiber like the ones the olympic swimmers use when they get out of the pool. I don't know what they do...
I just saw a great technique on the Adam's Polish video. He just places a plush MF towel on the surface over the polish residue and uses the PC with the polishing pad over the towel to agitate the...
I love the Guzzler. If you try to dry the whole car with just one, though, you will likely have to wring it out. Personally, I use an electric leaf blower to blow the big stuff off, then finish...
Great thread. This is very similar to what I see on the trunk lid of my "new" 2010 Camaro. I'm certain these ultra fine micro swirls are rotary induced, because they are PERFECT in simmetry. I'll...
Thanks for your comments. This discussion is great for tossing ideas about linting. I do have to disagree with your observations that "plusher" means MORE linting. I have not been able to...
There IS something strange happening here with microfiber. I think there are alot more linting towels out there than people even realize. If you are wiping them on a white or silver car for example,...
The 3 non-linting Supreme Shines I bought from Meguiar's Online. They had packaging that said "Gold Class" Supreme Shines and did not look like the packaging on the website. They are great.
One more thing. The CD test seems flawed to me. I can make EVERY towel scratch a CD depending on the pressure I used. I actually found that the Cobra Super 600's I got recently had the WORST...
Buy yourself a NEW California Car Duster. Use no pressure and dust the surface with just the tips of the duster to knock the large dust particles off. Then, use your quick detailer with microfiber. I...
I tested my new Cobra 530's and special gold towels with a quick detailer BEFORE I ever washed them. They linted from the start. One wash on a long cycle, front loader, with only a small amount of He...
I don't get this. I started a thread about my new 530's and what lint monsters they are when I use a quick detailer. How can other people not have this? I'm starting to think that these towels can't...
I have LG front loaders. I generally put the Meguiar's Supreme Shines through an extra long cycle with only HE detergent, extra rinse, and add white vinegar to the softener cup. Thebn, last night I...
I'm really having a hard time finding Microfiber towels that work for me. I have a black car and use Meguiar's Ultimate Quick Detailer or #135 pretty much daily for dusting.
