[Poles R Us]

[Mike #1]

[AJ]

scrims, microfibre for the cills

[♠Winp®oClean♠]

Scrims all the way!

Micro's are crap IMO, I've tried loads & still to find one come anywhere near a scrim!

[Jackal]

i prefer scrim,only use microfibre when on leaded they are quicker i find,i use the green unger ones quite good

[Small but perfectley formed]

Microfibre they last forever , scrims fall to bit after a couple of years

[Londoner]

Microfibre, the green Unger ones from WCW. Old primark T shirts for the sills

[Paul Coleman]

I used scrim for years but haven't used one in ages now.  To be honest, unless you are doing Georgian or leaded without WFP, I find it doesn't really matter as they would only be used for detailing.  The way I work, very little detailing is needed anyway.  For doing leads or Georgian by hand, I would only use the large, smooth microfibres.  They glide over the glass much better.

[dazmond]

both for me.

flatweave microfibres for detailing/buffing

towelling variety micros for sill cloths


scrim for detailing /buffing on damp days(they last longer before they need changing).

the large flatweave microfibres are just great.you can use them straight out of the pack.dont wash them with fabric softener though.youll ruin them.

Order both and decide for yourself  .
I use both, but I wouldn't like to do without scrim. Micro's are good but I like scrim as a good all rounder.
As Dazmond says, micro's get wetter quicker on damp days. Probably because they are so effective.
Having scrim as well, means I don't have to keep changing microfibres. It might just be me being lazy, though.

My only experience of microfibre is a few sent free to me by SOAP NATIONAL.  i didnt like them , eventually selling them on along with various other dud purchases, on Ebay

i really like scrim

Microfibre they last forever , scrims fall to bit after a couple of years

dont know what scrims you used then.ive got some that i started with 6years ago,and these where used every day uptill a few years a go when i started with wfp.
and i know that some people have used the same scrim for years

[g.brookes]

i hate the micro fibre purely because of how small they are.  You cant grip them properly and you end up scraping your knuckles etc

[Nameless Drudge]

I have scrim and some large blue microfibre glass cloths,fine weave,.13 dernier,320gsm,80x 62cm, from paragon microfibre.i`m down to only 2 left of the microfibre so need to order more and just had a look at paragon`s site and they have some new types out,the current ones i have are as good as scrim and feel as long lasting and the descriptions on the site suggest they have something better now(possibly).Anyway i was recommended Paragon Microfibre Ltd by this forum and am happy to vouch for them as well,easy to order on the site as well and certainly worth a look.

Microfiber for wet wipining, scrim for drying

[Pro-Poler]

No contest scrims went out with the arc, they wear quickly, leave lint and generally are far inferior to microfibre, I even use unger giant microfibres to clean windows, they do a perfect job, anyone who doesn't like them aren't using them properly.
