Best retail (chain) store to get microfiber towels/applicators

I am going to need a bunch of these soon! I don't want to go through expensive online ordering though. Any chains stores carry pretty decent microfiber towels? Pep Boys, Autozone, Wally World?

Also need some microfiber applicators for the waxing process.


Thanks!

i'll agree with target, the ones they carry don't seem all too bad. But if any of the real car care guys come in here they'll say it's really not all that great and i'll agree. Quality ones you find online are much much nicer and most store bought ones won't compare. I don't have the link offhand but if your really interested i'll go dig it up, just let me know. Don't forget to take the white tags off before you work.

The ones I bought don't have any tags on them and have no border. They also feel very weird.

Here is a good article about microfiber and what to look for in a quality towel.

Yeah I bought 6 of them for about 8 bucks at Pep Boys, and they did feel very weird on my hands.
