    Re: Meguiars Ultimate Compound users

    I think UC is also marketed as being a bit more friendly for use with the DA, whereas the 105 is better suited for use with a rotary.

    Personally, I have used both with the DA. To me, the 105 is...

    Re: Cobra Indigo vs. Bogo Cobra Arctic White

    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.

    The Cobra towels seem to...

    Re: after winter--light polish

    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...

    Re: Which MF towels?

    To answer you question...maybe.

    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...

    Re: Finish Kare 425

    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"...

    Re: microfiber spa towels...?

    "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...

    Re: Wax removal/buffing with PC7424

    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...
  8. Re: Cobra Gold Plush XL Microfiber Towel alternative?

    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...

    Re: Is this polish induced marring?!?! *{

    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...

    Re: Linting MF Towels. Why????

    Matt:

    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,...

    Re: Found a MF towel that doesn't lint!!!

    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.

    So, I...

    Re: Found a MF towel that doesn't lint!!!

    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...

    Re: Found a MF towel that doesn't lint!!!

    I have 21 Supreme Shines. 18 of them lint like crazy, 3 do not.

    I have 3 Ultimate Wipes. All 3 lint. Rub them on glass and it looks like snow.

    Why do 3 supremes not lint? I'm convinced they...

    Re: How often can you use detailing spray?

    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 have 21 Supreme Shines and 3 Ultimate Wipes. The Ultimates do "grab" well for removing wax or polish without multiple passes.

    Only 3 of my Supreme Shines are suitable for quick detailing, all of...

    I'm entirely confused, and my wife is surely going to think my towel obsession is worse than my Camaro obsession when more boxes of towels show up.

    So nobody has had any linting problems with the...

    New Microfiber towels are linting

    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.
