  • 100% cotton towel question??

    what is the difference between 100% cotton towels and 100% cotton terry towels??

    Also, a question about the ultimate wipe, is that the one you use in conjunction with 100% cotton terry towels to remove the hazed waxes and polishes/ cleaners??

    also when removing 83,82,81 can you use the same steps for all three of those terry cloth/ ending with ultimate wipe??

    thanks,
    Jon

    "Terry" and "terrycloth" refers to the type of weave that you see in towels. All common bath towels in the US are terrycloth. You know, with the loops sticking out all over. That's terry cloth. (Google is your friend, btw; no sleight intended, I often forget to use it too.) So, a cotton towel might not have a terry nap; for example, a 100% cotton dishtowel, or glass towel.

    I use microfiber towels for #83, and terry towels for #81. I've never used #82.

      I like to use a terry towel to remove the bulk of #83 & #82 and then finish off with a micro fiber towel.

      I've never used # 81 yet.

        is the ultimate wipe by Meguiar's a good MF towel to use?

          Yeah, it's decent. Not the worst, not the best.

          Too nice a towel doesn't grab the product, and a poor towel scratches. The Meg's towel doesn't scratch, and is about average at grabbing the product.
