$30 Microfiber???

I was viewing the Gloss It website and I just so happened to come across this "special" microfiber: Ultra Plush Dyring Towel

What do you all think? I think it's a bit pricey... very pricey!!! :thud:

 

A tad ridiculous in my opinion

 

What kills me is that any of us, who regularly spend untold amounts on detailing supplies including $1000 and $2500 jars of wax , would call a $30 towel ridiculous! LOL I mean, I have a $100 anodized, brass and aluminum firehose nozzle! Now which site is that towel on?

 

I have never spent more than $250 on a wax :

 

But waxes are special things Ken!

Also one thing to note is that most of everything that GI sells is usually considerably higher than most products in the market/industry. The only thing that I've found to be reasonably priced has been their backing plates.

 

Yes their stuff is really high, but a lot of people sure swear by them. Denzil, i just noticed your "status" on here, whats up with that haha?

 

I reall have no clue how you could bring yourself to spending $2000+ on WAX.... but I'm not that crazy yet, every car I own also has rust (Does that word scare people around here) so my priorities are at a slightly different level right now. I'm just trying to make what I have better.

That being said there are a few bigger $$ items I would love to have, professional steamer, extractor, electric pressure washer to name a few...

Detailing is an expensive deal!

 

I blame Carlos, haha.

 

Hand crafted by God himself, this is the last microfiber towel you will ever need :worship2:

 

ridiculous..

 

it is for that niche of people that need that one up factor.

 

Oh, but you will my friend!

Bingo.

 

I just looked these up. You can get these from Polished Bliss or Rubbish Boys for about $15USD plus shipping. They are verrrrrry soft but being I personally find them a little difficult to use. I'll stick with my waffle weaves, thanks.

 

It's just like anything: it's that last 1% that will set you back a shedload of money. I personally find all these superplush towels a load of bollocks. It's most frustrating to remove product with these than the "regular" towels. The thickest towel I like is the CG Fluffer. But my favorite is still Juztang's Ultra Premium. It's fookin' PERFECT. And if you drop it on the floor, or wipe down a single-stage paintjob, it's not the end of the world.

But personally, $30 for a towel? They can keep it.

PS: CG probably makes it

 

I have that towel. But I bought it from Ben. I love it. I use it to get the water that the ww doesn't pick up. I don't like to move the ww over the surface. But that super plush one works well where the ww falls short.

 

Oh, and I AM going to buy a 30 dollar microfiber drying towel. Although it's a LOT bigger than this one. something like 35x48. Supernatural Drying towel aka the Jedi Blanket. I'm going to try to get Justin to do a group buy... what do you think, Justin?

 

all of their stuff is overpriced, no surprise to me

 

Oh, awesome find Ken!

Yeah, I feel the exact same way P1et! I really like Justin's Ultra Premiums, I have like 70 of them, haha. I will say that I do like the Shag Rags though.

Ballin!

 

So...?! :tiptoe:

 

It's probably being upscaled since it doesnt seem like anyone in the US sells this towel. Although they are selling their grit guard and edge wash mit for a couple bucks more than most places.
