MF Brand Question

I am looking to purchase 5 or 6 MF polishing towels, and was wondering what everyone thought about the Autopia Blue Perl Towel that come in a 6 pack? I also looked at the Exceldetail Elite 16x16 but was dismayed by the $9 shipping charge from California to Arizona. Autopia only charges $5.50. Aside from the shipping issues, are there any major differences between these brands of towels? The Blue perl is made in China, the Exceldetail is made ?Unkown? Thanks.

I have about 30 towels from patrick @ excel detail. And, whatever he doesn't use of that $9 shipping charge he paypals you back!

I've tried a good amount of the MF's out there and I'll go to Excel from here on out. Great prices for the product and honest shipping not to mention UNREAL customer service. I had a mitt that ripped the first day I got it, Patrick replaced it along w/ a mess of other goodies.

In searching on the forums (yes, I SEARCH!!) I have come to appreciate the customer service stories regarding Exceldetail, so no arguments there. But, in reality, this is a towel, not a PC or some technical item with parts, etc. I guess I am wondering, CS aside, if there is any real difference between these two items?

CLpower, do you know where your exceldetail towels are from?(China, Korea, USA?)

Not sure, but all I can tell you is they are great.

I've had towels from autopia, not those ones you posted and they are decent. You still can't beat patricks quality for the price. And he WILL return shipping money to you.

OK, OK, I give I will order from Patrick. I have to say, part of the reason for this is that he didn't jump on this thread and try to "sell" his company over the other product I mentioned. Would be easy to use this forum as a good sales pitch place, but instead, he let his reputation do the talking. Thanks all for the sugestions.


By the way,
PM'd Patrick and he said his towels are made in China

Another reason I've always given him my business. I've never once seen him self promote his company. On top of that, he's just a stand up guy.
