Hi folks, just trying to get a feel for what you are all using for your microfiber towel size. I am partial to the 16x24's, but can't really explain why, i guess i just like have the extra large size towel. I am tempted to bring some 16x16's into my arsenal, however, i am wondering if you are using the 16x16' s, can you explain why? Seems like a silly question, but i am curious. thanks
 
I Prefer 16x16 that way I have more control over the towel (about the size of my hand) & can use sections accordingly
 
I like 16x16's for paint work, interiors. 16x24's are great for rinseless washes though.
 
Personal preference.

I like 16x16, anything over that and I can't get even pressure over the entire surface of the towel.

Ya, think about if you open the towel all the way up, only the portion around and under your hand is removing products, buffing, etc the rest is just wasted.

I have small hands, so 16x16 is great for me. If I use 16x24 I fold them an additional time to get smaller sides.

16x16 towel.
 
I prefer the 16X24, I just seem to get better results with them, but I do have long fingers so maybe that has something to do with my preference over others.
 
I have both and use both, but definitely reach towards the 16x16 more often. Just feels better
 
I'm a 16x16 person. Just easier for me to control and like others have said. It allows me to put more even pressure.
 
agreed with the majority, 16x16 as well. 16x24 folded in fours still have a little hangover that your hand doesn't completely cover when you wipe...
 
I appreciate all the comments guys, thanks...I'll grab some 16's at the next great sale...I missed the first cyber buster of the waterless wash 16's...won't hurt to have some on hand from all the feedback.
 
I use 16 x 16 when doing polishing/ compounding and 16 x 24 for interiors. I like the 16 x 16 better though.
 
16x16 for wax removal. 16x24 for waterless wash. The " uneven" pressure is perfect doing a waterless wash because it gently lifts contaminants before the weight of your hand gets over it.
