Default Microfiber Towels at Costco

I bought all of my microfiber towels from Griot's Garage, 6 towels for $29.99.
But I got a 36 pack at Costco for $14.50 to try them, just as good, great price, check it out if you need them.

I use those all the time. They are great quality too.

Big difference from the ones at Sam's. The Costco ones seem to be MUCh better quality.

Yeah, but some from COSTCOS too. One pack in the yellow and one in the orange. Yellow for body, orange for wheels.

They've been working out great.

They are soft when you take them out of the package, but once you wash them, like you should before using, they lose alot of their plushness and absorbancy. I only use them for interior work now, and stick to higher quality MF's for the exterior. I've washed them ~10 times now, and they are extremely stiff for MF's, while my other MF's have remained as soft as when they are new. Not really worth it IMO for primary detailing work, okay for interior work.

Got the same ones. My dad "stole" half of them. Then I stole them when he bought some

Good Idea with two different colors

I try. Every once in awhile I hit a good one, not like my peanut butter and mayonaisse sandwhich idea or the waking up in the morning half asleep and accidentally trying out the icy hot toothpaste plan....

They are pretty nice. I have to shake mine out before using them to get rid of the loose pieces.
