    MF Towels

    I have seen the light and only use MF towels, but they are expensive! I do use the Costco towels for cleaning but not for drying or polishing. WHere do you get your polishing MF towels? Link me!

    O'Reilly auto parts. They are a great investment IMHO. I pick up a 6 pack about once a month. I use them to wipe grime off the inside of the windshield, dust, wax, dry, EVERYTHING!!!!

    Todd - I still use the MF towles or just about everything.

    Washing, drying, general cleaning. I do go over them after washing looking for stuck bits.

    if you want something for nice ness the Meguiars MF towels are hard to beat. I belive Gary also sells some damn nice ones as well.

    PS - for polish, are you refering to a show glaze polish or are you refering to something like a super mild cleaner ?

    I've picked up pak of 20 @costco(yellow) and they are good $20 for 20. I also picked up pack of 12 at Target (orange) and for some reason I think these are a little thicker. cost per towel was cheaper at Target about 9.99 for 12 (and these are NY prices don't know if diff elsewhere). Use them however. I also picked up the drying cloth at Target it works great and cheaper than Chamois. Target prod goes under name of Vrroom, I think.

    And yes RE-Wash them. Some i've allocated to doing the dirty jobs and some stricty polishing etc. you'll figure it out.

    Take a look at www.perfectautofinish.com, Gary has a special on right now on all his products plus an excellent "Do it yourself" segment on his site. He does most of his postings on the 300Cforum site. I have no financial interest in his company but his customer relations are excellent and he loves to help folks like us.

    Gotta love those Magnumfreak towels. The Costco ones are a good buy, but for really good quality check out http://adamspolishes.com they are more spendy, but worth it.

    Checker has a sale on through october selling Mequires mf towels for $2.99. They seem thicker and softer than the bulk mf towels from Target or Wally world. I use them on the paint and the bulk towels on the interiors.

    I have one of Gary's waffle-weave (and large) MF towels. The thing is a water vaccuum!

    After washing and rinsing I use one of the Sam's Club, Lowes, or Home Depot brand small MF towels to get off the gross water. Then I go over the "damp" section with the waffle weave.... presto... NOT DAMP ANYMORE! I keep wringing out the little towel, and the waffle weave makes it over the entire car. The waffle weave is a more expensive piece, but well worth Gary's moderate price. I've not really seen the waffle weave in the big box stores... but then, since getting one from Gary, I haven't needed another.
    Still in love with my first wife, and first car ('68 Charger)... Still have the wife!
