over the span of a few months, i ordered two sets of the blue towels. i always am meticulous with my towels...i keep them organized, bagged, wash them and dry them carefully, etc.
so anyway, i decided to order these things to give me something better than the commodity type MF towels i was using previously. i figured i'm using boutique chemicals, i might as well step up and use good towels. these things have given me issues since the first time i washed them.
i get these uniformly sized strands all over whatever i wipe, esp when using them with instant detailer or for glass with proper glass cleaner. the fibers are very thin, sorta reflective/transparent and all the same size like i mentioned. they end up sticking to wherever i wiped and make a GIGANTIC MESS of my project.
i called AG and talked to bobby. he was very helpful and did what he could. he sent me a couple more towels. he told me all the obvious stuff regarding care, and i ended up spending more cash on some DP cleaner. i soaked these things in DP solution ALONE, then washed them in warm water ALONE, rinsed them twice alone, spun them alone, and hung dried them alone on a rack in an isolated room.
unfortunately, the ones he sent look just like the ones i had, meaning unused, since i never really used the original ones due to the problems they cause. i should have probably kept them seperate but i was under the impression this DP stuff would solve my problems........
i went to use two of the clean towels, and they are doing the same thing. what gives here? it's like the towel's fibers are shedding like crazy. it's driving me INSANE. i feel like this guy - [video=youtube_share;jc-Mhynh_pg] - 1984 - Crazy Eddie[/video]
i know how to take care of towels, i think that maybe i just got a bad batch and that batch contaminated the ones bobby sent me. that's my take on it.
thoughts? i left a message with returns. i want these things outta here but i know cobra makes a good towel...usually. i gotta get my hands on something because i can't go back to these wal-mart units.
