Stop Scratching Your Paint

Hello Forum Members, my business partner and myself are starting a premium microfiber towel company and we want to gauge interest in the car community. We hand selected a package of towels designed specifically for each surface of your car. High quality towels tend to be sold at a premium, we aim to sell our towels at a lower price point so any type of detailing enthusiast can afford high quality towels. Help us out and post your thoughts, thank you!

I use the Griots microfiber towels. They are very soft but leave fibers behind. Will yours be different?

Ok. All well and good, but you've said nothing except the word "towel". What is the blend? What is the GSM? Korea or China? Lots of variables in the microfiber world

Great questions. The blend will be a 70/30 for all of the towels. GSM will depend on the towel. Our glass towel is the lowest GSM (200), all the way up to our wax/buff towel being the highest (550). Other towels in the pack intended for different purposes will be somewhere in between. All Chinese towels. If you have anymore questions, don't hesitate to ask!

I've accumulated many different types of MF towels over the years. Do you plan on including a two-sided glass MF towel; scrub texture on one side, absorb texture on the other?

I'm interested. Could you let us know what would be included in the variety pack? I voted for variety but would do ala carte depending on the mix.

Thank you for your interest! As of now, the pack would include window towels, interior towels, drying towels, wax/buff towels, and general towels (engine bay, wheels, etc.).

Quantity of each towel in the pack is still undecided!
