Best microfiber for detailing that I have used Aug 07, 2010
Used two of these microfibers to polish wax off my Tacoma. It did a great job and the wax came off a lot easier than it did with other microfibers. The fiber softness and thickness are excellent. Buy these while you still can at $19.95 for 10.

Exellent after putting in washer/dryer a couple of times Aug 07, 2010
These work very well and fast. They not only absorb water quickly, but they make great clean up towels as well. They are also just the right size to place one in each hand and wipe quickly through the whole car in under 5 minutes, changing towels as needed. I use up a total of about 6 towels on my midsize 4-door sedan.
There are always a few visible water spots which are remedied by gently passing one of these towels, slightly damp, over the general area, making sure that it barely makes contact with the paint (the paint must be kept cool and under a good deal of shade or scratches will occur; paint softens when it's heated by sunlight making it more susceptible to damage; spraying water to cool a paint surface causes micro-fractures, leading to rapid deterioration of the finish; a car's paint should be allowed to cool slowly on its own, under the shade before washing or in about 2 years the damage will reveal itself as a haze).
PROBLEM ENCOUNTERED AND SOLUTION
At first the towels would leave a lot of lint, since my car is new and the paint has a mirror like finish that caused the towels to stick.
So I put them through the washing machine and dryer a couple of times which virtually eliminated the problem. And they also don't stick to the paint anymore, though I should point out that after washing the towels I started using Zip Wax Car Wash which might be the reason why the towels no longer stick.
Also, I noticed these towels have a really annoying factory label sewn into them. I wasn't sure if they might scratch the car, so I tore them out, gently pulling them from the seams, letting them tear away like paper. To my surprise, the edge stitching remained perfectly intact.
WORD OF CAUTION
Make sure to set the dryer to a temperature that keeps the towels slightly warm to the touch. Excessive heat will harden the fibers which could possibly scratch the car's finish! For what it's worth, I set my dryer to medium heat for 30 minutes.

Fluffy and thick microfiber towels Jul 23, 2010
I absolutely love my microfiber towels. I have started using less chemicals when cleaning and have lowered my overall cost of cleaning. This towel I have used to clean my glass table and it does an absolutely incredible job. I am totally impressed with how long it lasts before it gets dirty or saturated with dust and lint. That I am sure is because of the long fluffy fiber. By the way, if you have cat hair on you upholstered couch this towel helps pick up that furry fluff. It also picks up big water spills. My husband likes them because they are blue, go figure. Next time my husband purchases these blue fluffy towels I will send some to my family members. These are really excellent. He is using them on his baby (aka Dodge Charger). Service from the seller was perfect! Great doing business with them.

Absolutely the best microfiber towels. Jul 13, 2010
I bought these with my car in mind, I needed something that did not leave lint behind after washing my car, but this are incredible good and high quality. The picture does not show their beauty. I am actually saying beauty, because they are well made, excellent product. And yes my car is shinny. I used them for my car, and now I use them in my home, in the kitchen, bathroom, these are great multipurpose towels and they are washable. I will be ordering more of these for a long time.

A very thirsty towel, used only 2 to dry an entire car May 26, 2010
Until I used one, I could not understand why there was so much buzz about this towel in the detailing forums.
I got a 10 pack just for good measure, thinking that if they were linting too much, I could always use them in other places around the house. Not only they don't lint, even before the first wash, but they are super absorbent. Actually I have never used a microfiber towel so thick and heavy before. After washing my car as I normally do, it only took two of these towels to dry the entire car. I used a third towel for dusting the inside on the dashboard and it worked wonders, like a true dust magnet.
The product is even better than on the picture as it comes with a satin border and rounded edges. This way I guess there is absolutely no way to scratch the surface.
