It's like eating out at Waffle House all your life and thinking that it is the bomb because that's all you were ever exposed to. Then someone takes you to the Waldorf Astoria and shows you how the OTHER half lives. You'll never look at Waffle House the same way after that. I'm unplugging people from the paint Matrix daily. The question is, do you want to take the blue pill and wake up in the morning believing whatever you want to believe or do you want to take the red pill and find out just how deep the rabbit hole goes. Buddy, it's deep.

great vid. If I was still in the market for some new towels I definitely would've gone here. I love my Cobra's from autogeek.net though. Anyone find some really plush ones like Cobra Super Plush?

Not offended in the slightest. Just wanted to point out the difference for those who don't know the difference.

I think one of Junkman's vids on some forum somewhere (think it was a 350z forum I stumbled upon via a google search) might've actually been what introduced me to what car detailing actually was (as opposed to just washing your car with over the counter crap). Sure, there are a bunch of random joe schmoe's out there but Junkman has a pretty sizable following in the car detail community for his helpful and informative videos. Hah. Nice to see another vid Junkman and seeing you on this forum. Gonna go snag myself some towels myself. Actually curious to see where the uber towels I purchased from detailers domain about a year ago are manufactured - I have an unopened package that still have the tags on them. |

I almost feel dirty now. lol.
The funny thing is, before I even checked the tag, I did the test where I draped it over my hand and pulled on it to see what you were talking about and I could feel it catching on my skin a bit. Low and behold, made in china. I guess the consolation in all of this - I loaded up on them when they were only 2 dollars each during a deal of the day. Yeah, definitely investing in some better towels. |

Here's another thing about those cheap towels that will drive you crazy. If that thing hits the ground and there are leaves around, those leaves will embed themselves into the towel and you will have to pick for days to get all the tiny bits of leaf out. If you don't get them all, one of those tiny leaf bits will scratch the crap out of your paint. Talk about hideous, I wouldn't use those China made towels wipe my butt!
