Like most everyone else, I’ve never met a Microfiber Madness product I didn’t absolutely love. That being said, I want to share the Madness!! I thought it may be fun to giveaway a MM product, so here goes. This particular time the giveaway is for enthusiasts (non-pros) only. So if you are a non-pro and would like to participate, you can do so by either posting a Show and Shine (highlighting your favorite CarPro products) or by posting a review for any product or products that CarPro-US carries. Please start your own thread and post a link to it here if you would like to enter the giveaway. Good luck and let the fun begin!:cool::);):rolleyes::eek::cool::D:):o:cool:

BTW: I'm not going to tell you what the MM prize is, but I'll give you a hint...............It's not a towel...:cool:

Wow, cool! In the last few days I've used Fabric, Eraser, Iron-X, Hydro2, Reload, MM IncrediPads and DropneticX2s (not in that order hehe). Let me get on it! Please please please, daddy wants an IncrediWheelMop!

I'll have a go at this. If we were to do a review, do you want it to be on the carpro-us store website or here on the forums? If it is here on the forums, does there need to be pics in the review? Very cool giveaway, especially since the prize is some madness haha

I won't argue! LOL!

I would do one but my truck is at the dealer being fixed after a long trip back and forth between N.J. and Alabama. I deconed, corrected, and CQUK'd my truck prior to leaving. Just busy catching up and helping my wife research care facilities for her mom.
As soon as I can I'll post something. FIXER AND REFLECT WAS used for correcting.

Agreed. LOL I got a 24 hour time out at another site today for falling for some bait and responding a bit impulsively. I asked questions and one poster kept attacking me for what he saw as me being sarcastic and implying he's a liar. What the...? Anyway, I love this place for the concise info I can count on from the many seasoned warriors and pros here!

If the sun comes out this morning, I finally have a day off and hope to polish my clown car's glass with CarPro CeriGlass and Rayon discs, followed by a double application of Forte! I'll be sure to grab pics and note my thoughts.

I too have a sense that we have a large proportion of Pro (or seasoned detailers) but that is a best kept secret which should not be kept secret. There is no problem inviting your friends and other detailers from other forum to participate. Personally I am active in 2 forums but am a member on many more (including some FB groups).

Is the glass that bad that you have to start with the most aggressive? If you have minor waterspotting and no real wiper scratching I would try a less aggressive approach first and step up if necessary.... and as for Forte I personally recommend 3 coats on daily driver windshield and 1 layer on the other glass should be plenty if you have a thorough methodical coverage. :cool:

Ok that's a wrap, the MM giveaway is officially over now!!!

Everyone who entered did a GREAT job and we truly appreciate all of your contributions to the forum! THANK YOU so much for participating!!! In fact you all did such a great job that we can't pick just one winner. Therefore you ALL win some madness;):cool::p:D.

We have a Dropnetic 2X, a couple of Crazy Piles, a couple of CloudBusters, a couple of WaveRider Jr's, a few Sloggers, and a couple of CarPro BOA's (I know, I know CP BOA's are NOT Microfiber Madness towels, but what the heck I want to give a couple away anyway) So here's the deal; We have assigned a number between 1-100 to the following groups of prizes:

Prize #1 = 1 Dropnetic 2X
Prize #2 = 1 Crazy Pile and 1 CP BOA
Prize #3 = 1 Crazy Pile and 1 CP BOA
Prize #4 = 1 CloudBuster, 1 WaveRider Jr, and 2 Sloggers
Prize #5 = 1 CloudBuster, 1 WaveRider Jr, and 2 Sloggers

The five of you who entered please respond to this thread with a number between 1-100 and PM me your address. The person who picks the number closest to the number assigned to the prize group, wins that prize group.

Thanks again to all of you who contributed to this thread and participated, it is VERY much appreciated.

So I just got these in not even a half hour ago. I feel the need to share what I won from the contest with others and give my initial impressions of my first Microfiber Madness towel, the crazy pile, as well as the Carpro BOA towel! First off a huge thank you to Tad aka Dark Horse for hosting the contest and letting us all win! Never won much of anything so it is really appreciated and really fun when the USPS guy pulled up today! Picture time

http://s2.postimg.org/51yofhpxl/20150604_155034.jpg (http://postimage.org/)
post image online (http://postimage.org/)

The crazy pile was not as blue of a blue like it shows in pictures. I'd describe it as like a candy turquoise color
http://s2.postimg.org/5ijw1xdop/20150604_155105.jpg (http://postimage.org/)
image sharing (http://postimage.org/)

The Carpro BOA, in all honesty, was much much better quality than I was expecting. I don't know why my expectations weren't as high for the BOA (probly cause I was also comparing it to the crazy pile towel) I would definitely spring for this towel in the future as a 10 pack is in my price range for a quality microfiber. I think it would do well as an all around towel. The only thing I would guess it does not exceed well at is compound/polish removal, although I've yet to use either towel as of yet, just first impressions. I will most likely use these towels as either Eraser or Reload towels to avoid marring.

image hosting 10mb limit (http://postimage.org/)

My favorite picture, and most notable difference between the two is how thick the crazy pile is. (Both towels were folded in half twice) The strands of the crazy pile are longer than the BOA, which would be great to help pull dirt/dust away from the paint to avoid marring. The crazy pile is without a doubt the softest microfiber towel I now own or have ever felt. I gave both towels the shake test to see if the edges would throw off lint and neither of these towels did. I will report back to see if they lint on paint though. And yes I will wash these towels before I use them.
