quebert Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 I'm a bit OCD about my detailing supplies, Adam's already does this for their Hex Grip applicators. I think it would be pretty sick if they offered their towels with silk edges to match the products. IE Pink border for Detail Spray Yellow border for buttery wax etc... Not sure how it would work, would there be 3 of each color? I try to color coordinate all my detailing stuff and this would be perfect imho. This sounds overkill, and normally I'd agree. But the people who use Adam's products tend to be a bit beyond your normal detailers when it comes to spending $$$ So I decided to make a poll to see, who knows maybe this could happen one day. I'd definitely buy at least 6 of each. LT1xL82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsford Posted July 8, 2016 Share Posted July 8, 2016 You would have to buy WAY more towels then actually needed for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chops1sc Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I bet you could dye the edges of the towels you already have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LT1xL82 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I bet you could dye the edges of the towels you already have I've considered marking a corner of the towel with some sort of permanent marker/dye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingsford Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 (edited) I guess what I'm trying to say is you don't need a towel for just Buttery Wax and just paint sealant and just Americana. As long as you wash them you can use them with any wax or LSP. I separate mine by use (not product) and I'm sure many other people do too. Every type of towel can be used with multiple products. There is no need to dedicate 1 towel to 1 product when it can be used with multiple. Edited July 9, 2016 by Kingsford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pirahnah3 Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I personally wouldnt, I have quite a stock already and trying to figure out what I would want to add to the collection really wouldnt be worth it for me. Also I personally think that if you have a fair stock of them and clean properly it really wont matter, yes I have a couple discolored towels but they dont bother me much.

You could technically use the blue one for everything. While I'm on it, Adam's should make color coded mints too...

I have Blue for Polish and Red for wax. very similar to the way I use my towels. The Blue and Orange have different cuts because the Orange is supposed to be more aggressive (unless this has changed and no announcement was ever made).

tjk Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 I personally don't have a need or require different color matched edging, the chemicals will die the towels by them selves and I can use a colored permanent marker (sharpie) to color a dot on the corners until the towel gets died by the product. but wouldn't mind if the edging was a little more distinct between single, double, and triple softs.

flyboy9994 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Yeah my single softs that I use for detail spray are permanently stained pink! Really easy to pick them out from the bunch. I use the gray borderless for H2O G&G so no problems there. Otherwise it's just pretty much grab and go. Although I do certainly have "catagories": interior, glass, doorjambs, wheels only etc. And of course the "retirement bin" which I use for old stained towels, perfect for engine compartment etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
