I am looking for cheap microfibers to use when washing a car using ONR no rinse or waterless. I need them to be cheap but be scratch free. I already bought 48 of this one Microfiber Wheel Detailing Towel, wheel buffing towel, all wheel towel, utility towel, shop towel but this will be for other purposes. I have more expensive ones for buffing out wax and compounds too.

I'm looking at this two, are they safe for paint?

Super Soft Deluxe Blue Microfiber Towels, microfiber detailing towels, buffing towels, micro fiber towel, detail cloth
 
When you buy towels to wash your car or customers cars you can't cheap you need quality towels.
 
I have never used them but they look like a good quality towel.

Which ones the cheap ones? They are rolled with edges.

Also, are this fine for interior work? They are small and cheap and they look like they would be nice for interior wipe downs.

Ha ha, I don't consider $3 to be a "cheap" microfiber. Yes the 3/$9.99 rolled edge are a very nice towel, it's one of the few competitively priced towels here. And yes, towels like that Mango Breeze are good for interiors.

Thanks, i'll order some of the rolled ones and mango. Yea, i wouldn't call $3 per micro towel to be cheap either. I've seen 10 mfs for $10, i would call that cheap but then again i wouldn't use something like that on paint.


I will try CGs.. But they charge me tax and are like only 30 mins away so i'll go to their warehouse to feel the towels in person.

Chemical Guys are a very quality run company. Ive been to their headquarters, as seen on their Youtube videos, and they have so many types of towels. What specific CG towels are you referring to?
 
I want towels that are cheap but yet safe enough to wash a car with ONR. Indeed they are a good quality company. I own a couple of their products including Jetseal, some waxes, Interior stuff and some other stuff but never got to look into their towels or pads.
 
By the way, when i mean cheap, i don't mean cheap quality but good quality but the cheapest you can go. I don't want to have to buy $10-15 each microfibers to waterless wash cars because doing that means i need to use about 5-10.

I have these towels. They are so thin you can almost see through them. I use them for interiors, but you'd be better off getting towels at Costco before getting these. I think they are the thinnest towel I have ever seen.

I love Autogeek, but generally the MF's here aren't a great deal unless they are on BOGO. There are certainly other places to go, even places that will give you a wholesale account if you have a tax ID (of course you can get that kind of account at AG also). If you are close to CG that's a great opportunity to see and feel the merchandise, and I'll bet they give you a good deal there in the store. As far as the tax, it looks like we're all going to be paying some sort of sales tax on internet purchases before long, so same diff.
