    Edgeless microfibers. Who likes these? Not me.

    Actually very good for dusting, I guess I'm saying where the cloth will not be needed to be challenged at a hard task. Run around the House interior, shelving, monitor / computer screens, light touch on the canvas of oil paintings, done in minutes.

    Who washed this truck!?

    Hmmm I have an idea. Reminds me of how I recently watched the sparks fly across the room from plasma cutting and a PC grinding metal in a fabrication shop. If you were to hand paint small stars to resemble sparks to the sides of the body you would complete the existing natural artwork. Seal with...

    Detergents and Collinite #476

    Bob, No, not at this time. Each has merits, each has its own journey. Odisious, I also don't feel it would be a fair comparison between the two. But maybe fair to see which is easier or faster to repair. PiPuk, I browsed the AG wash products pages and the word "soap" was nowhere to be found...

    I've seen the Natural Sea Sponge suggestion before in the forum and have concerns. I was in my teens with my 1st car back in the 70's (71 Charger). What I didn't know at the time was the amount of embedded sea material (shells) within the pores of the Sponge. I did eventually learn but it...
