The New "No Name" Uber Super Plush Towel

I need any information on where to buy in bulk mf towels that have a 600 to 700 gram count. I want desperately to buy from detailersdomain in the 50 to 100 range but that will cost me a few thousand dollars.

I have found, with great sucess, that using these towels I can seam clean any car no matter what the condition with them and not cause any marring of any kind and it is super fast. say 5 to 10 minutes max and then go straight to wax the cars with power lock which customers absolutely love, especieally if they come back to be be steam cleaned again the cxar does not need to be re-waxed as it is that durable.

I have used he yellow towels from detailersdoman but they get wet way too fast and become useless or I have to go tthrough an unexceptable amount of towels to get the results that I am looking for.

I am looking to set up three bakers racks with the The New "No Name" Uber Super Plush Towel, so I am looking at getting around 500 to 1000 of them because they work so great plus I can go straight to a new towel to buff off the power lock in minutes and set the customers on their way.

I know this seems way over board but my system works.

any help in this matter would really be appreciated. I am looking for something in the 600gram range that is 16x16.

please help on this

for dressing i will be using hydro as it bonds and lasts to everything and anything but I want to use the adams in and out spray for the engine bay and then use lexol's blue bottle since it has no silicon for the interior wipe downs.

thanks again

 

You cannot get Phil on the phone and you two work out a deal?

 

So... do you really want 50 to 100 or 500 to 1000? Kind of confusing... they come out to $4.21 a piece so I'm not really sure where you're getting a few thousand dollars...

 

I spoke to phil via email and he gave me 50 for 200. great deal becasse I can not find anything else out there getter. he also gave me free shipping. i have a full time job to support all of the things that i am buying (investing in) plus I have a business partner and we will be hitting a really well to do area where people spend there money without thinking twice.

right now I am buying 50 but the goal is to be completely stocked up with 1000 towels, and many many more supplises that we buy in bulk which costs alot but really lowers the price of each unit by 5 times.

crazy at first with all of this buying but when you see the profit margin being made aand the low over head you will be asking me for advice.

I'll be asking you for advice? :shead:

 

if he purchased 500 towels at $4.21 that's over $2,000 right there.

That's crazy cash on towels LoL.

 

wow, do you really need 1000 towels? how many towels are you planning to use per car?

 

:shead:

 

Thats alot of fiber!!!

 

:applause: man needs fiber what can u do ...

 

stocktowelsnow has a dual texture 500g towel in 16x16 size. When buying them by the case (120 towels), it boils down to 1.96 per towel. They will also send out a sample to make sure it's what you want first.

Not sure where Phil is getting his from, and as his prices are generally very keen, I would imagine they're not the same heavyweight ones linked above.
Those for that price, are a certainty to have come from China, which isn't a bad thing per se, but it's not the best quality micro you can buy.
Why not opt for a stop-gap measure of 250 towels - yes, $1K investment, but if as you say, you're hitting a well-to-do area, then you'll recoup your money fairly quickly.
You might even be able to flog a few to the clientele, and make a few more bucks to go towards sales stock and replacements.
You'll soon see if you really need 500, or if 250 covers it, by the time you've laundered them each or every other day.

If you have a credit card, you could put it on that, then look at switching to a new provider - with some of the deals offering balance transfers at 0% APR for 6 months, if not longer, then you'll be able to pay them off without incurring any interest charges.


Iirc, didn't you just throw out $4-5K recently on a steam unit?
If you can afford to do that, then you should've also budgeted for $1K worth of top quality towels as well.
All part of the speculate to accumulate philosophy you've considered and convinced yourself before taking the plunge.

If it were me, I'd use average cloths, like those linked above, for the wheels (different colour for obvious reasons), and keep the good ones for the bodywork.
Glass, I'd use large blue/green ribbed ones - like most window cleaners use, or waffle.
So your $1K might only be $700 in reality by the time you do the above, rather than opting for all the same cloth, to be used everywhere.


Good luck with the venture, hope it pans out as envisaged.

 

I'm sure they are not the same. Phil's towels are 700g. I don't know where the no name towel is produced.

 

I still don't know why someone would need this many towels. Are you running a carwash where you'll be pumping out 30 cars a day?

 

Maybe he has an industrial sized washing machine/dryer.

 

I actually have a question related to this. I currently have around 10-12 top quality micros, and the rest are all crap (30 of them... some were the free AG and others are Sam's Club and some I don't know where they came from). Bottom line, I can do a detail its just I don't feel that its right, how many micros do I honestly need? 20 more?

 

I normally use about 20 paint safe towels, and maybe 15-30 all purpose mf's per detail. Then 2-3 glass towels.

I'm a little ocd about overcontaminating my polish towels.

 

i have 3 large plastic bins and there full.. way to many for 1 truck but im alittle nutts for towels

 

I've recently transferred addictions... I'm no longer collecting detailing supplies. Now it's cigars :druling:

I may have a nice sale to transfer funds to the new humidor and stocking it.

 

I think you misunderstood my point - it's not the weight that's the important point, but the quality of the microfiber itself.
Whilst those mentioned above may be similar "weight" fabric, that's probably where the similarities end.
The long and the short of it is, the best microfibers don't come from China, unless that's where they're finished.
Bit like the old story about "Made in the USA", where only the label was sown on in the US, the actual garment was made in China or Mexico, or elsewhere for low cost.
