Can you tell the difference?
-
looks like the pakshack has more pile to it.
However, the new SM MF looks thicker than both of them combined. lol
What do you think of the two?
-
The PakShak MF is the UltraPlush and has a tiny bit more pile on the "plush" side. I'd say that their standard plush and the SM Awesome are probably identical.
Here's a couple more for comparison.

Great I idea, I did snap a few close ups of the MF's from SM.
Let me know if you want me to post them...close ups.

Nice post... I need new towels (then again, I could go landfill diving for all of Gipraw's towels if I really wanted them badly enough.)

That's harsh.... funny... but harsh. Man I still have nightmares after reading that story.

hwm3,
thoughts on that new SM Fluffinator?
-
I'm getting ready to make the step up from the Meguiars microfibers and I'm wondering what everyone thinks of these two towels as they are the two I pretty much narrowed it down to. I have a pakshak towel that they threw in on a order I made with them. I really like it super soft with plenty of nap a world of difference from the rest of my towels. The SM soft edge towel looks the same as the pakshak towel from the best I can tell on the web.

If you want good towels for RETARDEDLY cheap, I would suggest buying the 100 pack from ADS. I use them on paint and they have NEVER left marring or scratching. They work on glass as well, and are less than a buck a piece when you buy 100.
eShine :can: has some ultra plush towels that I believe are called "cookie monster" and they are pretty cheap for what they are.
-
I was surprised at just how nice the premium MFs from ADS really are. I needed some for interior and wheels and such so I picked up the 100 bulk pack. I was pleasantly surprised. I do have plenty of other towels, many from pakshak, that are better though so my ADS towels are still used for their intended purpose. I did get a free Meguiars Ultimate Wipe and I don't really like it. I'm finally happy with the amount of towels I have and it seems like everyone is sending me free ones with my orders. Haha. Hey I still appreciate it. Can you really ever have too many? I don't think so.
-
I hear ya. I have a ton that have either graduated to grime work and/or into the house for dusting and such.
-
The ADS towels are pretty good I'm starting to have a nice collection of them from a couple getting thrown in with every order. I have used them a few times for removal and quick detailing and they seem to work OK. They don't compare to good to the pakshak towel I have, but they are a whole lot cheaper to!!
I think I'm gonna go ahead and order a 12 pack of the soft edge detailing towels and fluffinator from SM on Monday.
