Micro Fibre Cleaning Cloths/ Quality/Technology
« on: October 31, 2009, 07:23:22 am »
Does anyone on the group really know what the difference
Is,and what defines the quality of  micro fiber cleaning cloths?
What I mean is,ya go into say Poundstrecher in town or
Wilkinsons and they sell em`3 in a pack for a £1 right?
Then there`s for instance The Vikan Easy Shine Kit,the price
Of theirs is around 5 times that.Ettore and Unger sell theirs
At £3.50p and even £4.50 each.
Thanks for replies.

It depends on what your doing with them. I have the smooth ones from unger and they are great for cleaning glass with pure water - much better than the fluffy ones. I also use them to polish bathrooms when i do builders cleans but only after removing all the dust and dirt with the cheap fluffy ones.

Hi all

I've recently bought some from ebay at 55p each and although the colour runs on them they are great quality and so far don't seem to mind being washed and tumble dried daily.

They were £55 for 100 plus delivery and came from a company called xsstock.

Best Wishes

Double sided Unger (smooth and not so) are unbeatable for a quality finish, especially on glass, high gloss and shiny surfaces.

SYR thick blue are good but a batch bought recently were much poorer than usual. Fingers crossed this was a dodgy batch.....

For anything else use good quality T-Towels or even recycled terry-towels, cotton sheeting etc. These can be bought in weighted boxes make good sense.
