Microfiber Madness Dry Me Crazy Towel

Just curious if anyone else is having this same issue.

So a few months back I was reading reviews on the best dry towel, as I was using a crap ton of clothes to dry my entire car. I ended up getting the "Microfiber Madness Dry Me Crazy" & it was probably the best thing that ever happened to me. So after a few months I was like damn I should get a second... Well now on the third wash with the second one & it sheds more then my damn husky in the summer. Every swipe I am getting tons of little white tiny strings.... I do not remember this even happening once with the first one.

Yes, I washed it before use... and washed it properly each time after use. I thought it would go away by now or atleast let up a bit. Did I just get a bad one? Anyone have a good way to get rid of these?

Sounds like a bad one to me. I have three of these towels, bought at separate times, and they simply do not shed at all. And I have a dark car, so I'd see shedding if it was happening. Maybe you should try contacting the with the story?

I thought I would see if anyone else had the same issue before I complained to them. Good to know most are like the first one I had.

Thanks for the reply!

I've been using one for 4 or 5 months, and I wash it after every use; no shedding at all, and it's still holding together fine.

I have two of them bought at different times and have had zero issue with shedding. Must be a bad batch that one came out of. I live in Gilbert by the way

Yeah, I was very surprised with the second one I had... so much lint all over. I used the leaf blower and most of it blew off. I am not going to complain & just order another.... I probably would not of noticed it as much if my car was not black.

Jtruck, I just moved down here not to long ago from Colorado... how the hell do you deal with this heat! I need to AC my garage or somethin. Your car is clean, you use the fire/ice combo?

I have two and have never had this issue. If you purchased this from Sky's The Limit Car Care, I'm 100% sure Corey would make it right. The only other vendor I know of is Shine Supply in CA, if you bought from them, I would contact them with this issue.

You can e-mail Microfiber Madness directly from their website, they are also on Facebook.
