MICROFIBER TOWELS ANYONE HAVE A SOURCE? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Adams = Drying and general work ( I had an issue with their polishing towels leaving minor surface marks) Their drying towels are second to none.
Zaino = Detailing, Polishing and sealant (Note: Zaino is 100% cotton border free towel not microfiber)

The swirls and spider webs may not show up right away. It is a building process of damage. Some times you just have to trust folks at their word when they have more knowledge. Listen to all the detailers here that do this work for a living. Costco, sams, pep girls etc and anything that says China is microfiber junk.

Teccboxx listed links in this thread to some good sources and there is also Adams and Zanio. Do yourself and Camaro a favor and try some of the recommended ones. You will be surprised at the difference. Life is to short for paint correction all the time.

bought some from Sams and compared them to ones I have from other companies and I don't see a difference. used them for a variety of tasks, no scratches or other problems thus far.

Did you do the CD test? Take a blank CD or a CD you don't listen to anymore and on one side of it rub brand A microfiber towel. Not necessarily with a lot of pressure, but do it for a few minutes. Then on the other side repeat with brand B towel. You'll see which one is better right away.

Silver paint is very forgiving to the naked eye until things get REALLY bad. Get out a shop light and hold it a foot off your paint to inspect it's condition. Does it still look scratch free?

Take your Sams club towel and rub it back and forth 20 times in the same spot and same direction. Recheck the area with your shoplight. Then get out your swirl remover and fix what you just did.

From what other companies did you get your towels. You may be comparing two bad towels with one another.

And as previously stated. Silver cars hide the micro-scratches very well. But they will build up over time and your once shiny paint will start to look dull!

I won't take any chances. Only the best towels are touching my paint!

This thread reminds me of, "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink"

You can give people all the good advice you want, but if they choose to ignore it and harm their paint, that's their choice.
