Good deal on Micro Fiber towels
Well I was doing some shopping this weekend for normal household stuff at Target and stumbled onto a pretty good deal on micro fiber towels. They have a clearance sale going on one of the types of towels in the auto section: 4 MF towels for about $5. They are actually pretty nice towels: thick and very soft. I compared them to some others that I have that have been purchased from different locations. I would say they rank right behind the plush ones from Detailed image which are 3-4x the cost of these. If you go to Target they will be light grey in color. There are other MF towels there by the same company that are not as nice. I have a pack of these already (orange in color). I use them for wheels and windows. Irony: The lesser quality towels are more expensive right now. I only bought one pack cause I wanted to test them out first, but I’ll be heading back for more today or tomorrow.

Vroom MF towels 4pack are pretty good, I actually picke dsome up this wekend. Only suggesting is to fold in the corner edges since they are not protected.

Hey Guy ..
I actually bought these same grey ones and you are right they are just as thick as my Griot's ones that are 4 times as much as well .. GREAT JOB posting this, as the grey ones you speak of DO seem to be GREAT quality ..

I don't know what the offical size is, but if I had to guess, I would say they are 16" or 18" square? Not a drying towel, more of a "detailing" towel.

Might be a dumb question, but are MF towels reusable/washable?

Yes, throw them in your washer. Use warm water and a mild soap like Woolite. Wash them separate from your clothes/non-mf towels. You can dry but only on medium heat or lower.
