Why Microfiber Towels Are a Must for Car Detailing

If you care about your car’s finish, using the right towel is key. Regular towels can scratch your paint, leave lint, and make your car look worse, not better.
That’s where microfiber towels come in.
What Makes Microfiber So Good?
Microfiber is made of super tiny fibers that grab and trap dust, dirt, and moisture. It’s soft, safe, and much more effective than cotton or paper towels.
Why detailers use microfiber:
-
No scratches. They lift dirt instead of dragging it
-
No lint. Clean glass and paint without streaks
-
Super absorbent. Great for drying and quick cleanups
-
Reusable. Wash them and use again and again
