Colored Microfiber towels

**TMiller** · 08-29-2003, 12:10 PM

Is there any way to get microfiber towels in different colors? Is is feasible to dye them?

I have e different colors, I guess that I`m not sure what your question od because all the ones that I have seen are colored

**TMiller** · 08-29-2003, 12:31 PM

I have only seen (online) white ones. Can I get colored ones at say Pepboys?

TMiller,

You can get just about any color under the rainbow, depending on where, and whom you buy them from. I`m sure Pepboys has them. However, keep in mind that you get what you pay for. Some of the cheap ones are worthless on paint!

I don`t want cheap ones. I want to get them from one of our

fine sponsors, how can I specify colors? :wha

I would just give Dwayne a shout and see what colors are currently available.

I would try pakshack he has some nice MF`s and some colors also I would also ask Dwayne for sure.

I have some from Advance Auto and they are not so good. I use them for dirty work. The ones from Dwayne (premiumauto) and Ranney at pakshak are good ones.

TMiller,

You can`t always specify the color you want. The only problem I have with the MF`s that I have from Dwayne is the dark green color. It makes it really difficult to see any dirt on them. However, they are a nice quality towel, and I end up using them for final QDing when I know that the surface is clean, and I don`t have to worry about seeing any dirt. Having said that, I would do what the guys have said and give Dwayne a call. He may have other colors.

Keep in mind that it`s sometimes a good practice to have several color towels, and relagate certain colors to certain chores (polishing, wax removal, QDing, windows..... etc). That way you don`t end up mixing products on them.

That`s why I`m looking for different colors. If I have no choice but to buy white...would it hurt the fibers if I just dyed them specific colors?

You could just mark the white ones on one corner with a sharpie for different applications.(?) I even mark applicators with a sharpie for its use since I use them a few times before throwing them out. You know,like W is wax,P is polish,TD or S is tire dressing or silicone.I dunno,just an idea.....

**TMiller** · 08-29-2003, 06:57 PM

Good suggestion! The marker won`t run??

**NozeBleedSpeed** · 08-29-2003, 07:12 PM

Well Ive never had a Sharpie run on anything.I dont think any products we use will cause it to run or come off.

I just did a car today. I used cloth diapers, about 12 of them! About how many rags should you go through on average per detail?

**Ferrarislave** · 08-30-2003, 03:11 PM

I have 7 MF`s 3 Viper Green Extra Cut for Whipeing off compounds,Sealents etc. Then I have 2 Viper White MF`s Ultra Fine these are for Wax`s sealents etc. I also have 2 Blue MF`s Super Plush from Autofiber.com they are great for QD etc. I wouldent Dye your MF`s If you want Different color MF`s Why look elsewhere then PakShack. ???

I usally go thru 4 MF`s in a full exterior Detail.
