Great towels for auto detailing. The pile is deep enough to deeply capture dirt or wax but isn't too deep that it leaves lint when buffing window cleaner from glass. The towels are also *very* static clingy so this is towel I leave in my glove box to wipe up dust from the dash between cleanings. These towels absolutely need to be washed before the first use as they come with some kind scratchy feeling residue on them (feels like a starchy shirt) but they're great once they;re clean.
THE RAG COMPANY (4-Pack) 10 in. x 10 in. Mini-Miner Professional Metal POLISHING & Detailing 70/30 365gsm Microfiber Towels ...LUV , LUV , LUV these cloths...thickness , texture & sticky-ness is perfect , I'm using them around the house as I had recently purchase the "N Brand" ( you know the "bougie" ones you pay $28 for 1 cloth) at a friends party...anyways these DO THE JOB , they hold water as needed or ring dry as needed ...BUT upon receiving them yesterday I did as instructed & washed them first , no soap , no softner, no bleach..as much as I LUV THEM , I'm saddened to see my BRAND NEW cloth damaged ( edging has unraveled & ripped )... GRRRRRRR , but I will continue to use them even w/ that 1 imperfection .. because it is a very nice cloth IMO *UPDATE : was contacted almost immediately ( via e-mail) by The Rag Company ..YEE HAW they are sending out a replacement cloth ..WOW talk about great customer service , yeah . I'm impressed ...
These were byfar the best microfiber towels I've used so far. I haven't bought too many other high GSM towels but the batch I got were perfectly consistent and perfect for washing paint or removing wax due to the high fiber count and grippiness of the 30% polymide. Edgeless is definitely, definitely the way to go.
Unfortunately though when someone tries to "do you a favor" and pushes the laundry, they nuke your best set of towels-RIP. Never ever use high heat with these in the dryer, and always wash/dry with other microfiber towels only. They will last a number of washes. Mine were still flawless after about 10 cycles washes/waxes until they were destroyed.
They are absorbent, do not have tags, do not have edges, do not leave lint or color. I have a white car and I have used these towels for a waterless wash, that I use after a rinse. Absorbs water very well and dries quickly too. I also used this on my expensive aluminium alloy wheels for drying after cleaning them with a wheel cleaner. Since they were originally advertised for metal surfaces, they work perfectly. No scratches anywhere, unless you did a poor job of washing or rinsing.
I washed the outside of a dirty car and this thing grabs and holds the dirt in between rag rinses, instead of spreading dirt around. It is less useful for things that are barely dirty or just have a small dried-on smudge/goober. You will still have to work hard to get a dried goober off. Counter tops are like that. Edges started to fray a bit after one wash. no whipstitching around the edge. Still these are thick and are the best microfiber towels that I have ever purchased. Love them.

I think these are the best value I have found on Amazon for the price. At 1.89 or so a towel, they are soft and plush enough for polish and wax removal but they also work well for cleaning glass, applying a spray wax, and drying using a spray wax as a drying aid. I know there are some ultra think 500+ GSM towels that probably would work a bit better, but at 4-5 bucks a towel, no thanks. These work perfectly for me and have had no issue with multiples washes. Highly recommend these towels.
Very soft and plush. I use these to buff out polishes and waxes after using them with a DA Polisher. Their large size makes them easy to fold into squares, flip over, and reuse. Highly recommend these!
I've had these grey MF towels and I couldn't figure out where I had bought them, and then I recalled it was here. Glad I remembered! While they are labeled as "metal" MF towels, clearly then can be used as a "mult-use"i MF towel. They are dual pile, so that's convenient, and that's a plus.
Use daily with multiple products while detailing vehicles. Still in good condition after many washes.
These microfiber towels are great for automotive polishing and detailing. If cared for and washed properly, I can see them lasting much longer than the 'cheapies'. If you do a fair amount of detailing, these microfiber towels should work as well for you as they did for me.
