    Was looking for that JML Microfiber towel in Ace Hardware in Filinvest Mall (Alabang), and it was P50 IF you buy that P150 all purpose cleaner. Otherwise the JML microfiber towel is P150.

    Looked around, and saw in the cleaning section a brand called KAIYO. Microfiber towels. Looks exactly like the JML towel. P50 lang (actually, P49.75 yata).

    Saw the same KAIYO brand in True Value in Alabang Town Center, and there it costs about P80.

    I've tried the Kaiyo and they're horrible... they lint, they're coarse and the MF hooks are so inferior, don't waste your money on those...

    That's why I posted in this board first... para may feedback kaagad. Buti na lang...

    Actually, bumili ako isa. Good thing I didn't go for a dozen at once! Thanks for the tip, theveed!

    P.S. So, aside from JML (which sells for P150), where else can we get inexpensive microfiber towels?

    It's good enough to use on interior surfaces and household (yun gamit ko sa bahay for general wiping)... but sa oto, kahit sa salamin nagstrestreak eh... didn't like it one bit... but for the price, good replacement for regular towels narin... :D

    JML's are pretty cheap na actually, 3M (yung pambahay) costs P200 each (mga 8x8 lang sya)... Meguiar's Ultimate Detailing Towel mga P700 isa... eek....

    Sa US madaming nagbebenta sa eBay ng mga Korean MF (generic) which are great (go for Korea, not China)... mga $3 isa... not bad... ganun talaga going rate ng OK na MF eh.

    Since I already have that Kaiyo (china) microfiber towel, you said good replacement na rin for regular towels. So, I can still use them for the car, but only for general soaking (not wiping), and for door hinges and all that. Sayang lang din naman P50 ko if I don't use it na rin. Heheh.

    ok yang MF ah. di ko pa kasi nasusubukan. Sponge pa rin gamit ko pag nag-sa-shampoo ng car at chamois pag nagpapatuyo. Sa wax naman gamit ko yung 100% cotton towels. Makabili nga ng MF......
