Ok I haven't been on in a while, who on here use's a microfiber towel to clean and prep there glass, instead of using paper towels? I was sold on the idea from one of the wholesalers and it's not a bad idea, just looking for some input on this. They said you can wash the towels up to 300 time a piece, six come to a pack, Now this should save on waste, and they seam to clean better than a paper towel, ( I tried it out on my van first ) no streaks, no lint.
I would be concerned about contamination. Guess your used to things that are packaged in units of 6"Beer". But being a tailgate hack like yourself, contamination is not a concern..........
figured you would get that response sooner or later.
we use surgical towels, just don't let messy marvin get
caulking on them, then we thrown them away.
i would be concerned with the potential contamination of re using a micro fiber towel. in order to wash it and remove dirt and grime you need some sort of soap/detergent. not enough dirt stays in, too much and you get soap transfer on the windshield.
This is the reason why I posted this, so I can get some insight, XS yes I thought about cross contamination. I was wondering if anyone used them, so far I only used one to clean up the outside of the glass, They seem to work nice. Also I do like beer but a 6 pack isn't enough I buy the 24 pack, now that's a happy pack of beer for the night.
Now seriously I will try them out from start to finish and see how they hold up.
Ok so I tried these towels yesterday, I gotta say not to bad. I used a total of 3 for the whole day one to clean the frit after wet scrub, one to clean the inside of glass completely, and one to clean outside of glass. I had to use regular paper towels also, but I only used 4 to 5 towels at the most for the entire day

I use towels to wipe the car down, before the windshield is removed, when it is wet. Other than that I only use Dry Wipes. I never have been a fan of washing the windshield with reusable towels, and was told if you do, never use fabric softener, etc. I know Mygrant uses these to wash the windshield at the distribution level.
Larry yes I understand what you mean, I hand wash them over the weekend and just used a small amount of dish soap, So we shall see how this goes this morning. If I don't like the way they are cleaning its back to the paper towels in a box, and I'll just use them for the outside cleaning.
