Cobra/Autopia/Autogeek Towels

First is my favorite this the Cobra 530s, plush and great for removing LSP and QD.

Cobra 530gsm

Cobra 600gsm- Great for rinsless and waterless.

Cobra Gold Plush Jr. 360gsm - This is the universal towel. I have close to 20 of these and they are used for almost anything.

Rolled Edge Plush, this is my go to Waterless Towel.

Cobra Guzzler

Cobra Guzzler HD- This towel has a foam core and I can try the whole car with just one.

Pakshaks

Big Boy Blue 530gsm

Micropak Ultra Smooth- Favorite QD towel, does not adsorb QD as fast.

Micropak Ultra Plush

Micropak Microfiber- Great for removing polish.

Micropak UltraFine- This is the final wipe towel

Autoality Towels

UltraPlush- This is the thickest towel I own.

Plush 450gsm

Nice collection! Is it ok to use cobra 530 towels for waterless? Looking at your collection is making me think it's not plushy enough.

The 530s are plenty plush for waterless. I actually use the rolled blues for waterless, and they are 360gsm

Some of my favorite microfibers:

"Korean towel" from MicroFiber Tech. It's 4xx gsm and super soft.

From L to R: Griots, Euro/Rag Shack Shag Rag, Microfiber Tech 6xx GSM, Chemical Guys Sasquatch 8xx gsm, Corbra Junior 600 gsm, Detailed Image Über QD Microfiber 600gsm

More of the Microfiber Tech 6xx gsm (this towel feels more like 800 gsm)

That green one looks very similar to the Chinchillas

I held a Chinchilla at Detail Fest, the green towel from MF Tech is way more plush. They say its 6xx gsm, but it feels more like 8xx gsm

Couple days ago I saw pakshak has the same looking green towel. Maybe its the same manufacturer.

thats a whole lotta towels, how often do you have to wash em

 

[TacoHerder]

Nice write up. I messed up and didnt notice my dryer was on hot... Now I need to buy a few dozen more mf towels... Would you recommend to only use the thicker mf towels such as the Deluxe Jr. 600 when using a waterless wash? Or would the standard all purpose towel be good enough?

Thicker is better, more pile allows the dirt to be absorbed. You'll fine the basic 200/300 all purpose towels only do so much on paint. Good for doing wells/tires/wheels as a throwaway alternative.
