Well it finally warmed up enough for me to try my new PakShak UltraSmooth towels. Since I have Z-2 Pro on the car right now, I prepped the surface with a Z-6 wipedown using a Pak UltraPlush and then proceeded to use the new UltraSmooth towels for Z-8 application.
It simply worked wonderfully and these will be my new go-to towel for quick detail work. The key finding here is that Ranney and team have created just the right thickness of pile to apply qds but not so much depth to absorb too much product. The one side is slightly shorter nap which makes for excellent drying of the Z-8 following application with the slightly plusher side.
I also tried them with Crystal Mist on a Souveran spot and it worked just as well.
Packaging: A+, Sets or individual towels wrapped in clear plastic with well-written car instruction sheet.
Appearance: A+, funkadelic and psychedelic as the Talking Heads would say in rainbow colors (see below, also have a beautiful blue one I lent to my buddy Bret to try). High construction quality with soft fibers and silk edging. High fiber count.
Price: A+, $3.50 per towel with member's discount completely reasonable given quality of towel.
Performance: A+, perfect length fibers for qd work and general high quality mf duties.
Highly recommended. Perhaps my favorite microfiber yet.
