Towel lint problem

[Jason S.]

Having an issue today with my towels leaving lint while removing Americana. Kind of abuzz kill. It's sunny, but a rather humid day here at the beach. I think that might be contributing. Anyone else have issues like this? It occurred using both the double soft and single soft towels. And they are relatively new and previously washed.

Maybe you need to clay?

I should have mentioned, this was post wash, clay, polish, and LPS. I have also had this same issue at times in the past removing LPS.

I have this same issue , but it only happens with the single soft towels for me. I ended up just throwing that one out after it kept doing it even after washing, it was brand new

That really is a buzzkill then. I did think the the older style double softs seemed a bit more solid than the newer style, even though I believe the newer style has a higher GSM. Maybe try to isolate the issue to the towel by trying an older version, or even a different manufacturer. Visible lint is no good.

I have this problem with the orange towels. I've only used it with detail spray but it lints like crazy. I've washed them 5 or more times and they still do it. (Yes the paint is clayed)

This morning, a light mist of detail spray and wipe with a fresh towel took care of it.

One of the things I do after washing and air drying towels is to give them a good snap before I fold/roll and store them. I have found this to solve most of my linting issues. If you have one or two that constantly do it I would email Adams about it and I am certain they will help you out. 

 

That said I did have a couple of the new orange ones that took 2-3 washes to stop shedding like a furry pet. They are fine now but def had some linting to them, never noticed it with the previous batch and it could have just been manufacturing left over and not the towel itself as they were really small (as your picture shows) pieces of lint.

I have had quite a few of the old single soft towels have linting issues, have tried a few methods to solve the lint, including boiling them. Nothing seemed to work and eventually tossed them bc I don't want to risk them contaminating my other towels in the wash with lint. If they are newer towels, contact adams and i'm sure they will help u out
