Well in my search for MF towels here in Holland I found a company named Betsy's who sells them. So I ordered a few different towels from them to see if I could use them for my car. One towel is 60x45cm, 100% microfiber, the rest are 40x40cm, 70% polyester and 30% polyamide. Prices around €4,- not expensive I think:)
I did the cd test and didn't get any scratches, only with one towel but those scratches were very fine and very hard to see I also used a lot of pressure(can't imagine that I would ever use that much pressure when buffing my car). How much pressure should you use for the cd test?
 
great, glad you found some towels. i use the same pressure as i would on a car on the cds. not sure how much more or less easier it is to scratch a cd but it does make a good guidline. we recieved some mfs once that actually scratched my wifes eye glasses. imgaine what they would've done to car's finish. not all towels are created equal.

Thanks, I guess they are safe to use then. When I do normally rub a cd I don't get scratches, like I said only with one towel and they were hard to see and I used a lot of pressure. Well it's easy to scratch a cd so I guess with a lot of pressure you can scratch it with everything right? The pressure I used, I will certainly not use on my car:)
 
What is CD Test?

What is the CD Test? Just seeing if the MF towels will scratch?
I too got some new MF towels but have not used them. They are Viper Towles from PremiumAutoCare.com Anyone ever use these? thanks!
 
Hello,

I use mostly Viper MF towels, and they work flawlessly... especially the yellow one they make for glass. That thing is awesome!

:)
