Rinseless wash newbie - Questions

For what its worth now, I have those Kirkland towels

I used to use them on paint years ago before I knew better. They are OK, but any pressure put on the edges scratched paint for me, as the edges feel rather nylon like.

The towels do hold up very well and hold their shape for other tasks. They are much more substantial than these type of towels from Autozone

But the AZ towels seem to have softer edges.
 
Since we are off topic, I should write a book. It'll be called "Things People Tell Their Pharmacist"... Like, you wouldn't believe what the guy pulled me aside and told me on Tuesday.
 
I do rinseless all the time and also use the Garry Dean method (I prefer to just call it the multi-towel method). I like this method because I only have to fill one bucket and don't need a rinse bucket with grit guard. I use UWW+ as my rinseless wash of choice.

Depending on the the amount of dirt I sometimes use some super plush Cobra microfibers, but most of the time I find that these rolled edge towels work great!

I don't know about 24 packs but at $10 for a 3-pack I think this is a very nice towel for the money.

Over time, I just built up my stock of microfibers. I rarely use any of my "cheap" ones anymore for anything other than glass cleaning or tire cleaning.

:iagree:
I love these towels. I'm also new to detailing as a hobby, but i use these towels on my paint with no fear what so ever. I bought some Sams clubs towels after reading a thread on AG about them, but they are just too thin for paint if you ask me(nobody is asking me). But those plush blue/green towels are very affordable and effective. I add 3 or 6 to every one of my orders I make.
As far as the Sams club MF, they work great for my interior detailing and around the house. They get used plenty.
Don't ever buy Harbor Freight MF towels. I've washed them twice using CG microfiber detergent and they still smear anything I wipe them with.
