Hi everyone! I am upgrading my microfiber towels as I have crappy Simoniz ones from Canadian Tire. I was looking at Chemical Guys microfiber towels on Amazon but there are so many different types and colors I really don't know which ones are the best for each application. Does anyone have any experience with chemical guys microfiber towels or another great microfiber towel? Thanks!

Not a huge fan of the CG MFs I've tried. Just got in an order of the Rag Company Eagle Edgeless though, and OMG I LOVE THEM!! And you can't beat the price.

These look great! I love how they post their specs and info on each towel. HOWEVER, these apparently are $70!!! For a pack of 12 on amazon.ca which is beyond what I would pay for a towel lol
 
try using the search feature....this has been hammered to death.

Well if you're going to be a Cheap A$$ just get Costco towels. You've got to pay for quality, that's why you're here on AG. Funny how the same towels cost $12 each here. If you want cheap and decent get the black edgeless from CarPro, if you want value get Eagle Edgeless, if you want cheap crap get the low priced ones from CG.

I agree, but there is no instructions/tutor that shows how to fully use the search feature.

I would like to see AG do a search sticky. We can all learn then, etc.
 
If you use TRC be prepared to be patient, I tested them out, 13 days for me to receive the order. And some people started a thread complained about AG's shipping time of 3-5 days LOL!!!

Never had an issue with TRC. I get my order in 3-5 days. With AGO it's about 5-7 days.

Fair point. It is like a potential customer that wants that $50 detail or a $5 car wash. There's a place for that. But it is not realistic to get a high quality value in a really cheap package. Even though we all are human and looking for it somewhere lol.

Yep, 2 days every time. And a freebie more than a few times. They rock.

Peace,

X2!!

I ordered from TRC late on Tuesday and Friday the towels were at my door. Order Monday receive it Friday is the best AGO has ever done for me.
 
I got my eagle edge less from Amazon. They are obviously from TRC but fulfilled by Amazon. I got them in two days and I love them!!

I also really like the Costco towels. I have been buying them for years and while I agree they are/were mostly junk/interior towels, I just picked up a bag a couple of weeks and go and these are pretty nice. My guess is a out 350-360 GSM. Which ain't bad for the price! And they didn't scratch my car.
