Terry Cloth Bath towel for detailing

So it was a rip off? :slightly_frowning_face:

They’re streching out their last remaining threads to squeeze as much profit out of them as possible.

I still have mine for sale. It’s one of the old plush ones. A must have. Hurry guys and jump on it before I raise my price…

I cut them in half and use them for window sills. I used huck for detailing. I have a place on my belt for both towels. I dont like having anything laying on my shoulders and my wet towel usually doesnt even have to come off my belt.

Don’t know yet have to see how they hold up, an/or work

I got my ā€œprofessionalā€ window cleaners scrim today.

I think I’ve been hosed!!!

The material is so thin I can see right through the material. Just like the fly screens on my windows. They want me to boil the towels in water to soften them up before I use them. Geez

I’m down under, down under :slight_smile: NZ. Bought my last lot from Oz maybe 5 years ago. Definitely close weave and substantial. 36"x36" and I find perfect uncut. Keep it looped through a ring on my belt. They last forever. Got a solid 5 years out of my last 5. Broke out the last of my unused stock a couple of months ago.

So @jonnyald are the scrims your getting over there …

Just curious…

PS … man you guys are going through a ton of scrims daily Jonny…why? :confused:

thats a very good question, why to god are we going thru so many scrims each day? i wish i knew

but i know we surely are … we Do use them for everything,wiping sills, touch ups , and start each house with a fresh scrim,for no good reason than we hate using one with dirty spots on it

i actually own 103 scrims,counted them recently . Some are 9yrs old that i got when i first started,theyre getting thin now but still work well
Owning this number allows a sort of rotation, i make sure each morning the van has around 50 fresh ones to see us thru the day
