Packaging: Came shipped in a plastic dispoable bag which was inside another USPS bag.





Color/Scent/Viscosity: Cream/Tan in color.





How I used (as per instructions): I washed the towel before use with my other MF towels. I washed a couple vehicles using Poorboy's Super Slick & Suds wash and others with Top of the Line's Bubble Bath. I then rinsed (without flooding the surface/sheeting water) leaving either beads or pools of water. The vehicles I washed had variations of sealant to carnauba to no protection at all.



I placed the towel on the surface unfolded and let sit for 2 minutes (I feel this helps get the towel primed and sucks up more water). I then folded the towel three times and began to go over the surface lightly. I completed half a panel, flipped the towel, and wiped clean. No induced marring and no left over streaks.





Overall Thoughts: The pockets in the towel are designed to be used as handles so the towel doesn't touch the ground. Cool concept, yes, however, when I am washing vehicles, time is a bigger matter for me. Therefore I fold it 3 times. With this towel compared to others, I found that it created a thicker padding between my hand and the vehicle's surface due to the extra material. With this, the pressure I apply is better spread out, reducing the risk of drying-induced marring. Also, with the extra waffle weave material, it allows more water to be sucked up before wringing it out. The only vehicle I had to ring out the towel for was an unprotected Pathfinder in which the water pooled on the roof (1/2" of water in grooves). Again, this helped save time.





Other Notes: Fiber-Works suggests washing the towels before using.

Any questions, feel free.
 
Sean , I remember you doing a review of Fiberworks towels (last year perhaps?), and you seemed pretty impressed with them overall.

Was wondering what the long term verdict on these products is ?



By the way , thanks for all the thorough and thoughtful product reviews. They've been helpful to me on more than one occasion.



:thx
 
gusbubba: Yeah, that was me many months back. I am still using all of them. Obviously with heavy use, any MF will diminish a bit. These are still doing very well and I use them all reguarly.





Your welcome :).
 
I have to ask, given the amount of reviews you've posted this morning: This isn't anything similar to the Meguiar's free product for reviews program from this past May/June, is it? If it is, in the interest of full disclosure, please go back and indicate you received the products in exchange for reviews. Thanks.
 
Bill: Nope :).





The semester has ended for me here at Quinnipiac University. I am working at the University over break pretty much doing nothing (computer technician for full-time staff). I have a ton of time on my hands to catch up on reviews from the past couple of months.



Sorry for any confusion.
