Yup, just give them a call and they will get you sorted out
Done it MANY times myself, I'm sure Todd can attest to all the problems I cause

The ones Sam's Club sells actually aren't bad...much better than the Costco ones if they are the one's I'm thinking of. While they aren't a match for an Adam's single soft, (my favorite microfiber towel, period.) for my daily driver they work great, and I use them for door jams, wheels, etc. on my camaro and have never scratched anything. When they get dirty I toss 'em and get a new one. I think they're about 12 bucks for 24...

Or can I just go to my local autozone and get some micro fiber towels?

Also, I received an ArmorAll 6 piece car cleaning kit for Christmas and was wondering if anyone else used this brand? What is the quality? Thanks

Mine is a DD, and although I'm very careful with it, park way away from other cars, hand wash (2 buckets, etc) - I don't know if paying the Adams high price is worth it for me. Also - how do you decide when its time to get rid of the towel? Thanks

This is what I sent to pkauf
These are fantastic towels for removing polish/sealant/wax. These might be the best all-around towels you can buy. Very good especially for waterless wash or detail spray application. Only problem is that they are one-sided, the other side isn't as soft or plush and I don't use it. These are the best drying towels on the planet- bar none. They're expensive, but worth every penny. They will absorb at least 2-3x the water the Adam's ones do and stay soft wash after wash, unlike Adam's. That should get you going. Anything that autopia or autogeek sells is going to be good, though. Don't be afraid to try a different towel or anything. I've tried a ton, and those are what I like, but you might be different. Your microfiber will last a very long time if you care for it properly. Machine wash your mf towels in their own load, with warm water, and using a good microfiber detergent. I use Blackfire Microfiber Cleaner and Restorer. It's fantastic and lasts forever. I actually tumble dry mine on low, but no fabric softener of course. You could air dry them too, if you like, and then just put them in the dryer for a few minutes to fluff them up. When they start getting rough to the touch, delegate them to wheel/engine compartment duty. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2
