    Alright, so I'm supposed to detail a GT-R on Friday and it was VERY short notice. I really don't have time to order products online so I'm wondering about Wal-Mart and the quality of the micro fiber towels they have. I should have plenty of MF towels for drying and buffing, but I want to be on the safe side here. Can anybody help me out? Are they decent at all?

    k-mark will have the viken brand.

    Also stop off at pepboys or advance and look for the AutoSpa brand they are good.

    Don't forget about Target. The grey MFs are nice.

    Pretty sure they are all 80/20, most higher end ones are 70/30:shead:

    where are you located? Maybe someone can ship some to you that is close by if they have some for sale as well. Or they may be driving distance.

    I used the walmart ones, they work fine and I use them alot for door jambs and stuff. Soft enough for paint and I always buy a pack when i'm in walmart.

    The whole sale distributors "heavy" towel is very similar (if not exactly the same) to the CG yellow MF. I've gotten plenty of towels from this distributor and love thier towels. No problems with quality.
