How To Use The Gtechniq MF1 ZeroR Microfibre Buff Cloth
“Gtechniq MF1 microfiber buff cloth. This short pile warped net 300 GSM 16 by 16 inch high polyamide content cloth is the optimum cloth for removing residues from delicate high-gloss surfaces. The ultra split nature of the fibers makes the MF1 exceptionally efficient at residue removal and significantly softer than standard cloths. The hem edge material is the same material as the cloth thereby reducing the risk of marring to almost zero. Colors may vary.”
