Huck Surgical Towels?

Welcome to DC Trakpak! Yeah newsprint is an "old school" solution for glass cleaning/polishing. Just too messy for me. As for cleaning your glasses, if they are cheap-o gonna throw them away or lose them shortly, I guess that could be an option, though a poor one IMO. But since my lenses are coated and relatively expensive and newsprint contains wood fiber, no way would it come close to mine.

This is one area where the new and improved is not just new, but really improved. Try some, I thing you'll be convinced.

I read this thread and was going to answer the same way. I thought about it a little longer and decided that I'm sure it seems as if sometimes the only thing I say is confrontational or negative. I opted not to post at the time but this is exactly my feeling. Newspaper has no place around glasses that aren't really glass or glass that is coated. Thanks for speaking my mind. ;)

today newspaper ink is like vegtable oil- not the old school stuff- like actual ink per se- They qwit using ink along time ago. I use microfiber 98% of the time but old/new(FREE) NWSpaper on my OUTSIDE glass and it looks like new money everytime- just my 2 cents. I guess you all do so many cars-per week or day-its not feasible to fool with- its not nearly as qwik as grabbing a MF towel but it works great for me- with zero mess for me- but only on the outside for obvious reasons. It was just a cost effective alternative 4 u guyz making $$$$. Thank you all for your comments. if you can find it free.

Ink transfer is still an issues with today's NP. I know that you are new to the site, but the majority of members posting here are not pro-detailers. I work on a few cars a month, weekend only and my two cars.

I would say that I represent about 80% plus members here.

The huck towel that I bough was only 1.35 each, a NP is close to that and you can only use them once. I'm going to rest my case on this one

Just for the record, I am really trying to be funny. In no way did I mean any disrespect to trakpak or anyone else. I just think a little bit more highly of toomfoolery than most, probably.

Acrylic paint conditioner really is your friend....

I've used huck towels forever. I love them. If there are new, they should be washed to "break them in".

I have been using Huck towels for many years on glass and I love them. Washing them a few times first a definitely a good idea too. :bigups

I don't like how the MF ones cling to the glass and some leave tiny fiber behind.
