I worked an off duty detail years ago at an auto show. I made friends with one of those sells guys and he gave me three of those things for free. Long story short its a marketing scam. I was dissapointed with the product. Its a typical towel that will leave wet marks when drying

If it's something you don't see being sold in professional detailing shops like Detailed Image, don't waste your money.

Really? My friend uses a similar product and he says it's great for washing the car. I'm debating if I want to try it since I hate how MF towels leave their hairs all over the car.

Good quality MFs don't leave fibers on the car. Try some good ones next time.

You should also try washing them before using them.

Anything that costs $19.95 and then they DOUBLE your order for free(if you call within 20 minutes) is crapatola.

These companies that advertise and sell these trinkets are on a tear right now since a lot more people are spending TV time at home because they cannot afford to go out on the town. Billy Mays is on 24/7
