Paper Towels????

bman848 · March 27, 2016

Im getting tired of paying $60 a month on paper towels and am looking for other options. Currently i am buying the big packages of " members mark" brand from Sams Wholesale. They run about $20 per pack.

I just wanna see what everyone else is doing and if there are better options. Maybe im just stuck with this problem too, idk??

Hey bman, I used to do the same thing. Using the Sam's towels. I switched to the blue Tuffer than Tough towels to use strictly for on the tint. I use them to wrap my hard cards and my BlueMax. They don't tear near as easy as a regular paper towel, they don't leave lint on the film. And if you take care of them and lay them out over night to dry, you can reuse them quite a bit before you feel comfortable throwing one away.

So I quit using the Sam's stuff except for drying panels and washing my hands. Haven't been buying towels from Sam's near as much, and once I got used to drying out the Tuff Towels, they go even further now. :thumb Just my :twocents

BTW -- we have an industrial shop in the back, and I keep ALL the blue towels, unless they are gross, and give them to the back shop for soaking up oil and grease.

^^^x2 I know that's not the answer you're looking for every time I go and buy micro fibers my installs go south.

Micro fibre glass cloth, waffle towel, is my main towel. I use paper towels to wipe the outside of windows and inside panels. I only use about 3 sheets per car and reuse when I can through the day. 1 large roll of bounty will last me for a few weeks.....
