10+ depending on how detailed the detailing is.

ZuerstBMW · 12-30-2007, 09:13 PM

About 8 to 10

Takumi587 · 12-30-2007, 10:10 PM

1 waffle for drying. 2 for windows. 10 for wheels(varies). 8 for interior. 4 for polishing. 2 for clay barring. And prolly 10 more just for whatever. That adds up to 37 MF towels....

JOYRIIDE1113 · 12-30-2007, 10:15 PM

Exterior

2-3 for glass and windows. ( I use them for interior glass as well)
2 for wheels.
1 Waffleweave for drying.
1 for door jams.
2 for polishing
1 more Waffleweave for drying the car again (after polishing)
2 more for Sealant/wax removal
1 more for Quick Detailing

Neurorad · 12-30-2007, 11:02 PM

4 waffleweave for drying; 2 large for glass and metal, 2 smaller for door jams, under the hood, and the trunk area (I keep them separate, they get very black, same 2 towels for door jams each time, always the smaller ones).

A handful (5-6) of yellow Costco MF towels - leather, glass, interior plastic, wood.

If you flood rinse your car, you would only need 1 maybe two waffleweave towels.

Queenskid24 · 12-31-2007, 12:12 AM

1 waffle weave (drying), 10+ applying + removal(exterior) , etc. Wheels call for another 3-4, Interior uses about 3-4, engine bay about 2.

Id say 20+ for a FULL detail. Interior and Exterior.
I have MFs ranging from detailedimage, detailers domain, chemical guys, autozone, target, etc.
I use the plush towels for the body, the thin cheap ones are for the rest of the car.

Raz335 · 12-31-2007, 12:13 AM

I would probably say about 5.

+1 on Pakshak for buying microfiber.

ScheerSpeed · 12-31-2007, 12:37 AM

i use more than 15

L~R~G nor cal · 12-31-2007, 02:31 AM

Id say about 15-20 for me
