Lol, get it while the gettin's hot!

Got my towels in 2 days ago, busted them out for some polishin' with the new flex. these are the exact same thing(but in better colors) as the one's you find for 10-15 bucks a piece. Better than my pakshak edgeless because they are a touch thicker. They are even better than my Metropolitan Detail | Metropolitan Detail 1616 Edgeless Microfiber Detail Cloth | Bellevue | Seattle | Kirkland | Redmond which was my old standby value master. I also love that they come in orange which is much easier to spot any filth, in my eyes at least!

For quick detail, wax buffing, polish removal and wipe-down, you cant beat em.

Good lookin out Junkman, lovin them, gonna try and pick up some of them

I was smart this time. I bought my towels BEFORE I told everybody about them. When I told everyone about the Zaino towels, I had to wait two months before they got some new ones in!

Junkman,

Thanks for the advice. I actually watched your video and went that route. I was about to wash my car with some cheap microfiber towels skipping your two bucket wash, but then I watched the video on your alternative way to wash not using the two bucket. LOL! I decided to just let me car be dirty for a few days while I waited for my new wash mitts and Gilmour foammaster to come in. Just came in today. Tomorrow my Z will get the wash.

Btw, is it OK to use meguiars gold class in the Foamaster

Smart man. Dirt won't hurt your car unless you grind it into the paint.

You can use it but the results that you will have are going to be poor. You want a soap that really lays out some foam like DP's Xtreme Foam Formula.

Junkman,

You are quoting part of the late Big Pun (Big Punisher)!

You are "Still Not A Player" though.

That stuff rocks. It will make your car look like a birthday cake in about 30 seconds.

Junkman,

I hate to do it, but I have to recant my words!

Brother, this picture is classy. Both of you look like superstars.

That is alright, my brother, that is alright! Man, man, man!

spryor

P.S. Seriously, this is a really nice picture. The beard is tight! She looks very beautiful and sophisticated.

Seriously, though...Nice Pic.
