What do you recommend for towels/mitts/sponge?

Cell · 05-08-2011, 02:31 PM

I am looking to buy some towels/mitts/sponges to wash my car. I was just at o'reillys and was disappointed at the cheap towels/mitts/sponges that they had. Everything had a tag on it which can potentially scratch up a car.

I don't want to spend a fortune just for towels/mitts/sponges, so what do you guys recommend that works great?

Thanks

Skip the all purpose, the others are all good in below link.
Be sure to pick up one of the waffle weave towels (or Adam's great white) for drying as well.

For washing I still prefer the Adam's wash pads..

Can't you cut the tag off?

Visit the different car detailing sites, "compare prices"! There is one site, that charges a lot more for there product(s) than others. Just because the price is higher, doesn't make it a better product!

That's the worst thing anyone can do. I've done it and learned the hard way... My old car had a nice scratch mark from the tag.

But yea, thank you everyone. I think i am going to buy the adams towels but I will shop around and read some reviews before i purchase anything.

I am pretty hooked on Adams stuff. Might be overpaying but whateves

I have the adams towels and they are nice but they don't compare to detailers domain uber no name towels. And they are half the price of the adams towels. Use Coupon code 370 and save 10% at detailers domain. The adams wash pads are awesome and detailers domain carries the full line of adams
