Adams's double soft versus Zaino's border less blonde towels
I applied Americana today and wiped the residue off with Zaino's and Adams's last week.
Any guesses about which was easier/better? Note: I am not paid endorser of either brand. Just a guy that bought both for a face off.

The suspense is killing me...I have only used Adams but have heard good things about the blonde. What did you find?

How are you doing the comparison? Pics after wiping the excess wax off?

I'd guess the Zaino ones. My Adams towels leave lint. By the way, if you prefer the Adams I'd be happy to buy your Zaino towels from you.

Lol me too. Hell, I'd trade my Adam's ones if anybody didn't like the Zaino towels. Problem is, I've never heard anyone NOT like them.

For me, the winner was the Adam's double soft.
I base this on the effort required to remove the residue. I also found the Adam's easier to handle due to it's thickness. Both were good though.

Color me shocked. That's weird, I really thought you'd have preferred the Zaino. That's cool though. I can respect that you actually TRIED other things before deciding Adam's was the best, so I won't enlist you in the AA...yet

Whew!! Thank you thank you. I own lots of Adams double soft.
So could you comment on any streaking and if one towel was better than the other?

Which is easier to get? I'd say Adam's because Zaino is always listing them (so it seems) as out of stock all the time.

Adams is definitely easier to get, the Zaino ones sell out quickly. I would even settle for someone selling me some used ones.

While I respect your review, my experience was the exact opposite and the insane thickness of the double soft actually makes it more cumbersome to handle IMO. But as they say, opinions are like buttholes, everybody's got one!
