    hey guys. are there any towels with edges that does not have the thread on it. i cant really explain it but in simpler terms, basically im looking for a mf towel that is like the center of it only through out all 4 corners.

    All towels will have some sort of edging whether its mf, satin, or just stitched.

    Methodology - fold the towel into four quarters when using microfiber towels; it’s best to wipe in a single direction until all visible contamination is removed, flipping the towel frequently; micro fibre enables you to clean almost everything without casing surface scratches. What is equally important with any micro fibre towel is the way they are used; they need to be turned frequently, and don’t apply too much pressure, especially at the edges. Fold the micro fibre towel in half, then in half again, using very little downward pressure, gently wipe the surface and then flip the towel to a clean surface and wipe again. When you see the towel start to show a line of dirt, flip it around and use a different, clean section.

    With it folded properly you'll get a couple of first wipe / second wipe sections out of it. It usually takes 4 or 5 towels to wipe down an average vehicle. When you are ready to clean them, rinse well, re-wash and leave to air-dry

    Some of the BEST towels I've used are Justin's (ragshack.com) Gladiator towels.

    i have a special towel that feels somewhat like silk or a fluffy version of the super tight weave glass towel you sometimes see included with cleaners. it is a promotional item cause i hand it to the customer to wipe across a finished car. nothing like it. amazes them and shows what a good polish and wax accomplish have no idea where i got it but its gray in color and i would be one again in a heart beat.
