What is microfiber cloth? How do I select it?

In the processes of car beauty, such as detail wiping, crystal plating and sealing, interior cleaning, waxing, etc., almost all the wiping tools we use are microfiber cloth. However, there are a lot of microfiber fabrics available on the market, and their quality is "good and bad". Today, let's share with you how to choose microfiber fabrics. The invention of super fiber cloth

Ultra fine fiber cloth Ultrasuede was invented by Dr. Miyoshi Okamoto in 1970. It is called an artificial substitute for suede leather. And the fabric is multifunctional: it can be used in fashion, interior decoration, automobile and other vehicle decoration, as well as industrial applications, such as protective fabrics for electronic equipment.

On the properties of superfibres

Because the diameter of microfiber is very small, its bending stiffness is very small, and the fiber feels particularly soft. It has a very strong cleaning function and waterproof and breathable effect. The microfiber has many micro pores between the microfibers, forming a capillary structure. If it is processed into towel fabric, it has high water absorption. After washing the car, a large amount of residual water can be quickly wiped dry with a microfiber towel.

Gram weight

The heavier the fabric, the better the quality and the more expensive the price; On the contrary, low gram weight fabrics are cheap and of poor quality. The unit of gram weight is "gram per square meter" (g/m2), abbreviated as FAW. The gram weight of fabric is generally the gram of fabric weight per square meter. The gram weight is an important technical index of super fiber fabric.

Texture type

In the automotive beauty industry, microfiber cloth is mainly divided into three types: long hair, short hair and waffle. Long hair is mainly used for large-area water collection; Short hair is used for details treatment, crystal plating wiping and other steps; Waffle is mainly used for cleaning and wiping glass.

Softness

Thanks to the small diameter of microfiber fabric, it is easy to get a very soft feel, but the softness of towels produced by different manufacturers is different. Towels with better softness are less likely to leave scratches when wiping. It is recommended to use towels with better softness.

Edge sewing process

There are silk and satin edge sewing, laser seamless edge sewing and other processes. Generally speaking, the edge sewing process that can hide the hem can reduce the possibility of scratching the paint.

Durability

The better the quality of the microfiber cloth, the less likely it is to lose hair and harden after several times of cleaning. This kind of microfiber cloth has a longer durability.

Microfiber cloth is usually a special-shaped fiber, and the fineness of its silk is usually only one twentieth of that of ordinary polyester. In contrast, the microfiber cloth has a larger contact area with the surface to be cleaned! The larger contact area gives the microfiber better dust removal effect!
