    Looking for some Korean made microfiber towels. Most sites don't say where they are made and after ordering from a couple, they were tagged China. Right now I'm old school and want to stick with Korean microfiber, assembled in Korea.
    I need some all in one towels. Wax and polish removal, use with spay detailers and final buffing.

    Thanks​

    What you thinking! I think Korean and China made towels were different but I think as time has passed that difference many have shrunk. Just think about the quality of the towels you could buy OTC and look how the quality has improved now for OTC. You use to only be able to get high quality MFs online as the OTC ones were crap now you could almost get all the MFs you need OTC and they would be good quality and work well.

    Check out Pakshak. Ranney's towels are all made in Korea.

    not after you run through several dozen towels of different manufacturers/origin that you realized many of these towels are not equal. I will only source mine from a couple of mills as the rest are not very consistent in their quality

    a ton of koreaa microfiber is now outsourced to China. All they do is just tag them in Korea.

    Its the same thing like Apple made in china developed in the USA...

    Pakshak carries the top of the line Korean towels. Just get them from Ranney and you will not have to worry if they are cheap imatations.

    these are low cost mass production items and thus are not cost effective to ship them back to Korea just for tagging...my advice is to get the quality stuff from reliable source and you're safe

    I asked the people who make Viking towels and they said the cloth (misnomer) for their towels is still made in Korea but it is cut and edged in China and despite the labeling saying 80/20, the bulk cloth itself was still 70/30.

    Another vote for PakShak. They are the only towels I use on paint.
