2. Microfiber towels Microfiber towels have become the most popular towel in the detail industry. Microfibers are extremely versatile and can be used in all areas of the detailing process. They possess the ideal features in a towel: lint-free, absorbent and durable. Many variations exist within the microfiber family. Microfibers have a large range of sizes. There are varying degrees of thickness available in microfiber. Many towel vendors will measure thickness by the grams per square meter or GSM. A nicer quality microfiber towel will last more washings than a lower-quality version. Quality variations can be seen in the construction of the cloth and the finishing (stitching). A nice microfiber should make your hand feel like it has dry skin. You will actually feel the cloth sticking to your fingers and hand. How to pick a right microfiber towel Understand the 2 main types of microfiber towels. Thicker, rugged towels are better for cleaning and dusting. Thin, smooth towels are better for polishing surfaces. Decide for what purpose you need a microfiber towel. Microfiber towels are specially designed for a number of uses, including car polishing, electronics dusting and cleaning homes. For car detailing uses, the thicker the towel, the more effective it will be. It also should be a tight weave and a short nap. Microfiber can soak up to 7 lbs. Look for quality in your microfiber towel purchase. In general, the higher the towel's weight in grams, the better value the towel will be. Towels that are made of 100 percent nylon, a polyamide, are often better quality and more expensive. 204, Siddhi Vinayak Platinum, Opp D-Mart, Althan-Bambroli Road, Surat 9825604000 www.autofresh.in

5. Drying considerations The drying process is equally important to retaining microfiber quality. Ideally, these towels should be air dried. For carwashes utilizing dryers, the machine must be completely cooled down before drying a load of microfiber towels. Most importantly, asserts Sweeney, make sure the dryer is on the coolest setting, either permanent press or air fluff. “Because microfiber is made of polyester and nylon, high heat will cause melting, which will close the wedge-shaped fibers,” The most common causes for melted microfiber are drying on high heat and placing in a dryer that wasn’t fully cooled down. A quick test to see if a microfiber towel has melted is to pour a little water on a table and wipe with the towel. 204, Siddhi Vinayak Platinum, Opp D-Mart, Althan-Bambroli Road, Surat 9825604000 www.autofresh.in
