Cheap Microfibre cloths (£0.52)

[yellowbelly]

Just stumbled across these microfibre cloths at ScrewFix thought i would share with you all, postage is £5 so it works out to be £0.52p per cloth

Have to get some more after the Mrs put mine in the tumble dryer, bye bye static charge

Can you not get the ones from Costco mate? They are very good.

If not the Screwfix ones are only good as work cloths, don't use them on outer paintwork.

Ebay sell the Costco ones at a decent price.

^ isn't Costco like Macro i.e. you need a card to be able to shop there?

Have you tried/used these ones from SF Gally?

Off to look on eBay for similar prices.....

I've read lots of times about them, I get mine from Costco (they're Eurow ones) 36 for £12 and they're awesome imo.

The screwfix ones iirc didn't pass the CD test but then again it's up to you.

I think I paid £8 for 12 of those yellow Costco ones off ebay before I started getting mine straight from Costco.

For paintwork... http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/eltetow.htm (DW2) at the checkout for free delivery and these...

The bottom ones are super plush so no good for removing polish imo.

As above lad, a bit slow this morning again

ScrewFix ones are only good as "work towels" - not to be used on paint work.

Asda are 12 for £5 I think, they seem alright to me.

^^^ I was quite surprised to see Gally get in there before you JD, soon it will be a case of people saying 'JD Who'? lol

These seem a good price/quality

Why do you say this?

 

[JD]

They don't pass the "CD Test" Sash. In that when rubbed on a clean, new CD, they marr the surface. Therefore, they could scratch the paint surface on the car.

You joke. With moving down to London soon, I am very unlikely to be on as often during the day

I see, makes sense now.

I find i4d microfibres the best.

If any one wants I can get some of the Costco ones as a group buy or something? Assuming my local Costco actually sells them as I have never looked.
