[MRBILLYUK]

[Blue4Ever]

I can also recommend tesco ones, do a top notch job.

 

[kully]

[V1NNY]

what do people use to dry lol

 

[MRBILLYUK]

Got one of these a just over a week ago from carwashnwax . Dried the car superbly

Plus when i ordered a few things , shampoo , xxx wax , tyre gel he threw in 2 free microfibre cloths

 

[kully]

what do people use to dry lol

microfibre cloths all round , 1s for dryin other 1s polishin etc

 

[tybo uk]

Costco sell em,if thats any good to you.
pack of 12 ( i think ) for about nine quid.
Havn't tried em yet but they seem good quality.
bigger than the Tesco's one's aswell

 

[clio__chris]

i use:
to remove polish - tesco's or car plan
to dry - £1 super absorbant 'car plan' cloth. very good value and seem to do a good job

 

[fUbAr]

ive got lots of tesco ones and to be honest they're not great.

i have 2 other "edgeless" ones which are great, im after better quality than the tesco ones

 

[Claire]

Drying waffle weaves to cry, ether poorboys or meguiars

 

[Adam]

yeah the costco 1's are good...
especially for the price

 

[the_ferret]

Get onto PAKSHAK and order the very large Waffle weave towels. They are superb. 1 is enough to dry the whole car. That saves all the nice microfibres for polish and waxing galore.

Shipping on those is dirt cheap too.

For quality you can't beat the Pakshaks, shame they work out so dear over here.

I would seriously consider importing them over yourself.

Drying - Micropak Waffle weave 25x36

Yeah Tescos are great always use them on my car every week, they are just as good as the proper make ones you can buy from Halfords.

 

[FiDoDiDo]

I use a Poorboy's Waffle Weave Towel from Polish Bliss for the drying and probably the best MF's i've got are the complimentary ones from CarWashnWax, nice and soft.

 

[Serg]

wasnt some guna look into group buy on some MF not that i can imagen it would save a gr8 deal but then it seems there would be a Huge number ordered as lots of people use them.

 

[MRBILLYUK]

I use a Poorboy's Waffle Weave Towel from Polish Bliss for the drying and probably the best MF's i've got are the complimentary ones from CarWashnWax, nice and soft.

I used the yellow complimentary MF's from carwashnwax this weekend . Like ya say very soft , very good at removing wax

 

[Serious Performance]

I've just done a Poorboy's MF & waffle weave groupbuy on a couple of the Ford forums. If anyones interested it's something that can easily be done.

Microfibre wise I carry the Aquatouch MF range, Poorboy's are on their way over, my own general purpose cloths and will soon have some of the Detailers Paradise Monster Fluffies (1/2 inch thick!) in stock, so I can quite easily do group buys.

Cheers.
Alex.

 

[Justin]

i'll be up for the group buy, i go through these like they are going out of fashion!

 

[Serious Performance]

Okay, well if people give a rough indication of what they want, then I can get things under way and see what we can do .

 

[Rich]

Not to up on the Poorboys MF's will have to have a look by the sound of things

 

[fUbAr]

Yeah im up for a Poorboys MicroFirbe Group Buy... the polishing ones, not the drying ones

Would have to agree... Importing the cloths isn't that expensive, and its well worth it. Buy more than you need People always want em.

 

[Middo]

you really dont need all these fancy overspriced micro fibre cloths in my opinion, i buy the all purpose microfibre cloths from aldi which cost 1.19 for two (one fine and one corse), and they're loads better quality than the ones that cost 5 quid from halfrauds. did a really good job they were also loads better than the autoglym perfect polishing cloths i had to (although these arent strictly microfibre).

 

[jonesyx]

ive got one of the tesco blue ones which is fine, also got millions of the tesco summer deals ones (once lime green one blue) loads of stock left over so they got reduced to 60p for two.

 

[Justin]

How much roughly would we get for them? take it we would need a lot of people interested to make it worth while

 

[Serious Performance]

Not really Justin.... Theres a couple of ways of doing it.... First is you get slightly less discount (say 15%) and get free p+p etc or, get a larger discount (25% for example) but, get charged an extra pound or two for p+p.....

The last group buy was around 20 - 30 people and the discount worked out about 15% by Paypal, and 17.5% by cheque + free p+p.
People had the choice of a 24x36" Waffle Weave, 16x16" Deluxe Mega Towel, 16x16" Mega Plush Towel and a 16x27" Mega Mega Plush Towel.... So a fair bit of choice as well.

Cheers.

 

[Rich]

Looks like we need to get a list of who is interested then.

 

[Thomss]

I just got some Pak ones and they look and feel sweet. I have a pack of Megs ones too which are also nice.
