Chill out, bro! No need for the sarcasm. OP is just trying to be helpful. :-)
Change your name
What did you say? I can't read what you wrote because I'm illiterate!
Pro insulting both sides, just to keep it even eh
Change your name to D|ckhead, hope the profanity sensor doesn't stop you.
I still find op doing the unit price calculation for us is helpful. In the age of instant, we need info less than a click of a button. I had an undergrad degree in maths.
Better than the Bunnings 20 pack.

Be interested to know if these are better than the Bunnings ones. I've had the Bunnings ones for years still going strong.
Ditto. Although I dislike they're all quite large. No good for when you're out and about and wanting them in your pocket.
How much is that per cloth though?
Thanks for calculating the price of a singular cloth. Appreciate it. Not like some people
Any one know the Polyester/Polyamide mix of these towels? I imagine it is quite high at 90/10. Maybe 95/10.
100/10
Well played. My day would not be complete without typos
But does anyone actually know the Polyester/Polyamide mix?
I would rather pay 2 or 3 times as much on a general towel if it is better suited for the job. Most of these 90/10, 95/5 and 100/0 are horrible
FYI, I bought a pack yesterday. There is no construction information at all. Felt pretty soft to the touch but not quite as soft as the 80/20 that I buy from car detailing shops. Good enough to replace my kitchen ones though and for cleaning engine bay and wheels.
Thanks for taking the effort to reply. Probably 90/10 towels if still felt fairly soft. Definitely good for the purposes you mentioned. You want the towel to be a little stiffer as helps with cleaning.
Can someone convince me these are better than using cotton rags?
These would be way more absorbent than cotton and more gentle on surfaces (assuming a 80/20 polyester/polyamide ratio). I use old microfibre cloths to clean the door jambs after washing the car. They also attract dust - try wiping the dash of a car with a cotton rag - you'd just be sweeping it rather than picking it up. Also much easier to clean the glass with these than cotton.
As you can tell, I use them primarily for cleaning my car.
I'm doubtful they are 80/20. More likely to be 90/10 or 95/5 which means there would never touch my paint. This means they aren't very absorbent or soft. Better at pushing water than actually absorbing it
Probably better suited as a all purpose towel Eg. wheels, tyres, interiors and general household cleaning but never on my clearcoat
But certain a good post on some of the benefits of microfibre
Thanks guys. In my head microfibre = polyester so I was struggling to grasp how they could be more useful that a fist full of plastic bags.
I will give some a try and look for a good ratio of polyamide.
What is everyone using these for?
I use mine in the kitchen, cleaning bathroom, cleaning the car, cleaning anything really
And put them in the washine machine afterward?
Yes.
Car cleaning products dont do well in the wash however, I think its to do with the oils etc it uses.
Also make sure you dont ever use any fabric softener on them too cause that will just make them waterproof you will be wiping the table wondering why its just spreading water around.
I might add to this
Only wash microfibre with other microfibre but never with the towels you use for your wheels and dirty jobs
Liquid is laundry detergent is better than powder. The cheap wool washes at the supermarkets is one of the better choices
Extra rinse cycle helps remove detergent from towels
Vinegar is also super effective rinsing agent. It also acts as a natural fabric softener
Never use normal fabric softener. They wick both the inner and outer microfibre strands
Never soak or wash in hot water. Microfibre has a melting point of 60 degrees. I just cold wash. Heat doesnt really make a detergent that more effective
Air or tumble dry but without heat
Pre soak your dirty towels
Any questions I'm happy to help. As a side business I sell detailing towels and accessories
