I haven't tried those....I bought the speed shine towels. I have worked commercial construction for 30 years, and believe me when I tell you my hands are like friggin velcro. I know as soon as i get near a cheap *** micro-fiber, they jump onto my hands like magnets, and I need the old lady to help pull em off... So these passed the test, And the tags were a little too easy to remove for me to bitch about. The edges are extremely soft as well, but They will retire to lesser duties after I recieve my new edgeless rag co towels... If the Junkman approves 'em, I'm in with both feet

The Rag Company knows the man himself is in Louisville; I just got lucky when they saw I was in KY and assumed we know each other.

This happened to me, and I'm in Texas Washed them yesterday and plan to make good use of them this weekend.

I also received a free Master Clean 12x12 yellow microfiber (not the waffle weave, unfortunately, which they were out of the large white ones when I tried to order)

Nice find. The two mentioned look awfully similar to two from adams at 1/3 of the price..can anyone comment on a quality comparison?

It was one of these. Haven't had the opportunity to use it yet, but it feels like a good towel.
I did use the waffle weave and the Eagle Edgeless Blue this afternoon; both get my seal of approval. Used the Edgeless to buff off a coat of Rejex and it worked like a charm. Great towel, as you would expect from the Junkman's recommendation.
