    Favorite brand MF

    I am looking to get some new MF towels but with everyone selling them these days I was wandering who is making quality ones?

    I really like the dark green ones (16 X16) from PAC for removing polish and wax etc. and their blue, Soft and Plush for drying. I am also ready to purchase more towels soon so let`s hear everyones comments!
    PS ... I have not had good luck at all with the cheapies from Wal-Mart

    Premuimautocare and Poorboys sell some very good MFs. You can`t go wrong ordering from them.

    I`ve had great luck with the Viper brand towels. I think that most resellers buy from the same manufacturer, so ultimately you are getting the same product with a different name. I have purchased most of mine from Classic Motoring Accessories in the past, but want to try out the MW towels next.

    Pakshak and Autofiber are great for online purchasing. I have the 4Star and PB ones which are GREAT. I need to try out my Mullet MF, but I hear its VERY effective also. DF Contours is also very good.

    MF Are really starting to explode, so you can find MANY distributor and wholesalers.

    I love MF!! The Mullet Wax ones are huge and great! Poorboy`s variety is super, and they are very durable. The Adam`s Polishes ones I have are extremely soft, and wash up very well.

    True, most MF is coming from China, Korea, ect...and many are the same maker, with a different name on them.

    I was not impressed with the ones from Costco; they are reserved for wheels now for me.

    I have dozens of different types of MF towels. My favorites are as follows -

    Quick detailing towels -
    Poorboy`s Mega Plush 16"x16"
    Premium Auto Care Soft & Plush 20" x 40"
    Poorboy`s Super Size Plush 30"x60"
    (choice based upon vehicle size)

    Polish removal -
    Poorboy`s Mega Plush 16"x16"
    Premium Auto Care Soft Touch 16"x16"
    (lower cost alternatives - JT International and PakShak; make sure you ask for the discounted detailing forum prices)

    Carnauba wax and sealant removal -
    Poorboy`s Velvet Smooth 24"x36"
    DF Concours Towel 16"x30"

    Drying -
    Classic Motoring Accessories Big Blue Towel 25"x36"
    (lower cost alternatives - waffle weaves from Poorboy`s, Premium Auto Care, and PakShak)

    Interior dressing -
    Poorboy`s Velvet Smooth Small Mitt

    Door jams and wheels -
    no particular recommendations here - just dedicate a set of your least favorite MF towels for this task

    Tires and engine compartment -
    Buy inexpensive cotton towels in bulk and then throw them away when they won`t wash clean anymore. No need to waste more expensive MF towels for this task.

    I agree. I also agree with kimwallace on the walmart towels. I wouldn`t recommend them at all. Trust me. You could try exceldetail.com also. Patrick sells microfiber for a low cost.

    I agree with what`s been said here. A lot of very good MF towels. Poorboy`s, PAC`s, PakShak, JtInternational, Adam`s............ and others. All very good towels. They all make good all purpose towels. Some work better at certain detailing chores than others............ but not by a wide margin.

    Still, my favorite towel for removing waxes/sealants, and final QD`ing is the DFTowel.

    I have to concur with the rest. However, I`ve been getting more and more hooked on PB products, so I`ll probably be sticking with his towels, so I can order most of my product from one place.

    Has anyone tried the MF`s from 3M? They are kind of small, but they seem like they would work well for the interior.
