Don't know if this has been posted before but if so sorry bout that. I get 24 packs of micro fiber towels at Sam's Club for under $10. They're 16" x 16", 80% polyester and come in blue, orange, white and green. Cool for color coding what you're using them for. :notworthy: Ric
I got a pack of those to use around the house...

That's a good deal Grumpn. Prices are likely to be slightly higher here in Canada, but I did find that the local Dollarama store had them for a buck apiece. When I checked them against the Canadian Tire 3 pack / $5.99 I found them to be made of the same 80% polyester/20% polyamide. Size is 14 1/2" x 25 1/4" and they also came in a several colors.

No doubt it is a GREAT deal. Am interested but am VERY picky...
Questions: Is there any lint left behind? Are they all the same (other than the color)? Usually different colors means different "textures" of the cloth.
Hope not because I am tired of buying the more expensive towels to avoid the lint.

The ones I have gotten leave NO lint. Are outstanding for interior and exterior windows. Best I've found for Rain-Xing windows. Ric

the costco ones have a little lint, but none after you wash them for the first time

Correct! I do detailing on the side! ALWAYS WASH TOWELS before using for the first time. I use hot water. Yes, it does very little shrinking, but they come out great. I also throw them away after each use. I buy them aplenty. Also heres a tip. use newspaper to clean your windows...

The lime green ones at Home Depot are the bomb! They absorb and stuff clings to them like no other.

I have a system for mine.
I use the blue ones for cleaning stuff like wheel wells and things that get real dirty. The yellow ones are for glass and chrome, the green ones are for polishing paint, and the orange are for interior. Yeah, OCD has its advantages when it comes to detailing:)

Shamwow I use for washing and drying. I use those microfiber ones for buffing out the ICE wax and doing the windows and interior. I paid $5.99 for 6 at Autozone. I'm going to Sam's club next week, I'm putting them on the list.
