I just bought some cheap 100% USA made cotton towels, don't know if they are brand name or not, but the price was attractive. My question is should I wash these towels before using them on my car, or will it be fine to not wash them? Thanks.

 

Yes always wash new towels, wash them in warm water with liquid detergent and double rinse cycle.

 

If they are "good" cotton towels they will have the cotton LOGO on it

 

OK, got my Zaino stuff for the first time. Also bought 6 white 100% made in USA Royal Velvet towels. My question is do I have to cut the stitched edges off my towels? They cost quite a few$$$. These towels are better than the ones in my bathroom. Couldn't I just buy one of those powered buffers made for polishing instead? Which one will do a better job? Will a low-powered buffer do some damage if I buff one spot too long? Or is the towel thing the best way to bring up the polish and gloss enhancer? New zaino man.

 

Yes, you will need to remove all the hard factory edges and the flat trim from each end. This is why I make and sell towels to my customers as we cut all the towels for you, remove the edges for you and re sew the edges with triple stitched soft cotton thread that will not hurt the paint. The Royal Velvet are good but the best towels I have and all I use are the Fieldcrest Charismas, the Charismas are about twice the thickness and softer than the Royal Velvet line.

How much did you pay for the Royal Velvets each, my towesl already prepped might be a better option for you as if you do not re sew those edges it will fray like mad when you wash them.

Kevin V 2002 SS and hcvone both use my towels I make for them.

 

Besides being great towels, I like being able to order them in what size I want. I especially like the 1/4 size cut. I've been buying from KevinSS since he started selling them. I've bought several packs (I hate doing laundry). I can actually buy his prepped towels for less than what the same towel costs in a bed and bath store.
