Primo Plush Microfibre Microfibre Buffing Towel

Although Finale can be used with any clean microfibre, as with any detailing process, the tools for getting the very best results depends on the job in hand.  That said, when not being used as a drying aid, or added to clean water in a Detailing Bucket for a limited water wash, Finale Quick Detailer is intended as a final finishing product, utilised in the very last stage of your detail to perfect the surface, removing stray marks and getting the best results from the work you've already put in. For this reason - particularly on paintwork and vinyl - it makes sense to use the softest, most sensitive cloth available, one suited more towards finishing than cleaning tasks or removing wax/coating residues, to eliminate any risk of inflicting any accidental abrasions to your protection layers right at the end of your detail. Our Primo Plush Microfibre and Ultra Plush Microfibre are professional finishing cloths that are not only super soft, but their high GSM material (800GSM and 600GSM) also ensure that they're super absorbent, making them particularly ideal for soaking up the excess when using finishing sprays. These are also large (600x400mm and 400x400mm) finishing cloths, allowing you to get more fresh surface area for buffing as you fold and refold your cloth around the vehicle, to reveal a new, dry portion for every panel.

Although, we often use the word microfibre as a generalised term for a whole towel or cloth it actually refers to each fibre in the material. In order to be a microfibre, by definition, the single fibres have to be finer than 1 denier, which roughly equates to a single strand of silk. The premium cloths we develop have microfibres between 0.1 and 0.3 denier, which is up to 200 times finer than a human hair. Microfibre cloths are made from a synthetic blend of polyester - which makes up most of the structure - and polyamide (Nylon) used for increased absorption and density. These single fibres are also split to make them extremely fine during the manufacturing process and then woven into various constructions that have different attributes that are ideal for specific tasks. A split microfibre strand has a cross section much like an asterix (*), this not only means it has a hugely increased surface area, but that it can lift away fine particles within the strand itself. So, when these fibres are run across any wet or dry surface, they will pick up the fine particles or water molecules and hold them within the single fibres. This is why a microfibre will grab dust, grime and water, rather than simply move it around. For more on the science of microfibre see our full guide: The Right Cloth For The Job.

GSM (grams per square metre) is the dry weight, otherwise known as the density - of a microfibre cloth, regardless of the type of weave or length of the pile. As a general rule, the higher the GSM, the softer and more suited to absorbing moisture or liquid detailing products a cloth will be. Our ultra-deep pile Aqua Deluxe and Aqua Deluxe XL are designed purely for drying and utilise an ultra-high 1200GSM microfibre material, helping them to absorb a huge amount of water. A high GSM is also suitable for sensitive surfaces like soft paint and easily-scratched gloss plastics. Our Ultra Plush Microfibre and Primo Plush Microfibre Towels are also extremely absorbent, but these thick, long-pile 800 and 600GSM towels are also the ultimate premium cloths for safely buffing away finishing and protection products. Lower GSM figures are not quite as absorbent and more suited to heaver cleaning tasks and cleaning away harsh polish or coating residues, our Microfibre Work Cloths for example are still extremely soft, durable and scratch free, but these are constructed with a 300GSM microfibre to make them seriously versatile for a wide variety of detailing and valeting tasks.
