...but the Turtle Wax MFs I picked up at Big Lots are nothing short of EXCELLENT! I only picked up three packets of them, now I'm kicking myself for not getting more of them.

Actually, I love the PUG series, and one of my fave sealants is the Gloss Guard. Great products.

I was just at BL earlier today and saw TW Wool mitts for 4.00 a pop. I didn't see any MF towels though.

Default I just picked up one of those TW mitts

I went through about 20 of them to find the softest to my touch. It wasn't the fullest, but certainly the softest. I have a 16$ AG mitt coming and I am going to compare the two. If it's like everyone says, I would expect the TW mitt to be better since I was able to evaluate many before I settled on the one I got. However, if the AG mitt comes in softer, credit will go to wear credit is due.

I found them at the Round Rock Big Lots, but they have none left. Originally bought them for interior, but have used them on paint with no issues. They were $2.50 for three or four I believe. Come out great every time using CG MF wash.

I cannot speak for other Turtle Wax products, but these have my approval!

Here is what they look like:



Those chenille wash pads are just the worst of the worst. DO NOT BUY THEM! They aren't good for washing anything since those white things falls out they touch anything. HORRIBLE! I have not used the tire dressing applicators, but they could be alright if I cut them in half I guess.
