Yes! I love that I don't have to watch a 30 sec intro so the channel can get to the magic 10 minute time. Todd is great and hoping the see another farm video. The hay/straw cutting one was great.
Totally Agree! Cheers! No surprise I've seen the subscribers grow from like couple hundred thousand. I used to wonder why there weren't more subscribers. Now we are looking at almost 2 million. Amazing!
Thanks Todd, you too. Sitting in the garage after cutting the grass, kids begging to go swimming. They're gonna have to wait until Project Farm is over!
One benefit I’ve found for the blue colored towels is they darken when they come in contact with a fluid. When looking for a weeping brake line or plumbing fitting, that’s worth the expense to me. The white ones just don’t show enough contrast for a tiny droplet to show.
Man I gotta say I really like the last graph in this video, the “cost to clean up an 8-oz spill” really puts things into the simplest, most practical terms. I know it’s not always applicable, based on what you’re testing, but I’d really love to see more “what does it actually cost to do the thing the product is designed to do” graphs in the future
Todd, you do a fantastic job helping many of us make better decisions on which products work best for which jobs. Cutting through manufacturer's hype and old wives tales, without bias, has become a rare commodity. Your sense of fairness, commitment to real world use testing, your presentation, the time and effort in testing and dedication to responding to the many comments is frankly, incomparable. Thank you.
Which is expected. To be a good absorber the material needs to be more porous which leaves less material for strength. That's why I have both types in the shop and in the kitchen. I would also have tested how easy it is to remove residue from some surface. Because from my personal experience it's easier with shop towels because of the higher tensile strength.
The sontara towels are great. I was an automotive painter for 20 years and loved the sontara towels. I was very picky and a towel snob. After I masked off a car, I would clean my panels with grease and wax remover. Most towels leave to much lint behind. The sontara’s were the only ones that didn’t lint. And when painting, you need the cleanest, dust and lint free environment possible. Little towel lint fibers left behind are detrimental to a nice smooth paint finish.
It makes sense. If you're using them in the aerospace industry, you don't want that lint getting into multi-million dollar machinery/engines/equipment.
Sontara brand is made by Dupont. KC has about 5 different towels just for critical task wiping. The truth is there is only about 4 paper mills that make 90% of all "paper towels" and other paper pulp type products. KC and GP being the biggest and Trimaco being a close third. A lot of them do the private labeling too.
@@Dominasty aerospace, no. But when you are doing $10k in paint work on a $100k car, in a $50k paint booth. Yes, these little differences do make an overall huge difference. Why worry about a extra dollar in towels when you have weeks worth of labor and thousands of dollars in materials invested.

I just wanted to say, those Tool Box brand towels are sold at more than Harbor Freight. Also sold under a variety of names, although those would mostly be seen commercially (Caterpillar, John Deere, Uline). There are also several variant *weights* of it, from like H700 to Z2200. This refers to how it is processed. Brawny 6-packs in White are made by the same converting plant. The square box dispensers, plastic wall-mountable buckets, and bucket refills ranging from 7" diameter rolls to 10", are all from the same plant. The paper is called DRC - Double Re-Crepe. It's actually the name of the specific process. It gets fluffed, a latex/natrosol/couple other binders mixed in, wrapped around a steaming hot drum (literally), cooked, scraped off, sent through an oven, then repeated to the other side. It just about increases the absorb-ability of the stock paper 4x for the lighter weight, up to 7x for the heavier weight. There's also a tear resistant option where there's basically a loose plastic filament in the wiper that keeps it from tearing apart. Then, there's a no-tear option (called diamond DRC) that's usually blue, red/orange, or pinkish-red that has a very tight diamond weave layer cooked onto both sides of it.

Shout out to Millwright mechsnics. Was very lucky to work with 2 great millwright mechanics while an electrical spprentice in maintenance shop. Guys could weld burn do plumbing set machinery and small electrical jobs. Neither.ever used an adjustable wrench. They taught me to always work with the correct tools and to work safe.

I purchased the WypAll box of towels based on your testing. They arrived yesterday. I am blown away by their strength and absorption. I used Scott blue towels for decades and now they are history in my house. I love finding products that work. Thank you.

ProjectFarm really is the the best I’ve watched since the beginning and have watched the channel evolve and grow! This channel will be huge as time goes on!
@@jonathantaylor6926 Wrangler Star definitely shares tons of wisdom in his videos, I've learned more about axes than will probably ever serve me, but all the tips and techniques he uses when doing stuff has taught and saved me time and money, very much like Project Farm!
I suggested doing the disposable shop towels and thought maybe it was a dumb idea. Now I am glad I suggested it and of course PROJECT FARM did a great job as usual. If you have any ideas don't be afraid to suggest them.
Probably the most consistent channel on YT. I chucked a little seeing the various testing methods just for paper towels, but being thorough is one of Project Farm's claim to fame. Gotta love it!
I've been using the Great Value brand for a very long time. For the money, it's a good paper towel. I always wanted to know which paper towel is best for low lint use. Thanks for another great testing video!
Likewise low lint is important to me. I usually struggle with lint when cleaning gasket surfaces and find myself wiping several times to remove the lint from the last wipe. It probably doesn't matter but when you want something to last 100,000 or more then you don't want it take chances!
I'm an aircraft mechanic and we use Sontara wipes. Their main purpose is to clean surfaces before applying sealants/paint so it's really important they don't leave behind fibers. If we have to clean up any kind of spill from oil, grease or hydraulic fluid we use PIG mats, which are hydrophobic and only collect the hazardous chemicals
I love the Sontara wipes. We use them in our maintenance back-shops in the Air Force. Thank you Project Farm for the amazing quality and dedication you put in your videos!
Huge fan of the channel. Love the non-sponsored, purely data based reviews of products in a variety of common uses. Appreciate your short summary of findings at the end where you typically cover most economical, best, and your choice. Keep up the awesome content!
@@hertzer2000 Maybe they have been treated with fabric softener at the factory to make them feel fluffier? The test would be if they absorb better after washing.
I have been using the 16 inch MATCC brand microfiber cleaning cloths (from Amazon) for a while now. They are thick microfiber on one side and thin on the other. The MATCC microfiber cloths work great for automotive detailing, especially for glass. Just make sure you wash them (without fabric softener) before using them, as with all microfiber cloths. That way they don't smear or shed during use.
Yeah that made me sad. Maybe he filmed that a year ago and it was an accident and he finally found a use for the footage. I like to think that's what happened.
“The quicker picker upper” “We’re gonna test that” Never knew that could have been so funny. I’ll never look at another roll of Bounty the same way again.
I’m willing to bet the bounty marketing team never thought they’d have to worry about their quicker picker upper claim to get the project farm “we’re going to test that” treatment! Haha
Scott Pro shop towels are my favorites. The extra texture makes a big difference over standard "flat" shop towels. But I still have a place in my heart for the old red cloth shop towels. As far back as I can remember, my late grandpa always had one of these in his back pocket when he was working.
Man, corporate boards must live in fear of your videos coming out! The rest of us love your amazing content, Todd. Thanks so much for all your hard work!
I think Kimberly Clark actually is Scott. It really likely just comes down to the fact that the white box Kimberly Clark ones are meant for pretty brutal industrial use whereas the blue Scott towels can pretty much be bought at Walmart by any Tom Dick and Harry. I've honestly used them all in my years, but in my house we use the Bounty towels because they don't scratch and they are quick spill cleaners. We do have some Scott blue towels in our garage just for drying our hands basically. I honestly just use the run down microfiber rags for just about everything in my garage though. Worst case scenario they get too destroyed to be worth washing and I throw them out. But they were junk at that point anyway.
I dont know how to send a message for a suggestion so im hoping you will read my suggestion. Here in the UK there is this weed called Mares Tail / Horse Tail. I am wondering if you could do a test to see which methods totally gets rid if them. Such as wd40, weed killers and home made pestisde. It would be really helpful.
“The quicker picker upper”……. Thank you….thank you so much for reading that out! Made my day. Loved this one…..gonna switch out my shop towels for wypall and keep some bounty around for spills! Love this channel.
Hands down my favorite product review channel on youtube. Who else would test something as random as paper towels this throughly and somehow make it genuinely interesting to watch!
Don’t think I’ve ever seen you get as excited as you did by the shop towel staying together for a min as a head gasket. Love it. And i was just saying the other day how impressive it was that respond to comments still even though you get thousands… “Very Impressive!!”
Good idea! Sawdust too, and diapers. We called them diapers in the air force, i think they're called pig pads? They absorb petroleum products, not water.
I don’t know the answer to that question, but my wife’s cat uses oil-dri in her litter box. I can buy a 30lb bag for $6 at the local heavy duty parts house. I don’t even like cats, so there is no way I am paying the mark up on kitty litter.
Your reviews are more valuable than Consumer Reports! I'm sure you have this on your idea list already, but a review on battery leaf blowers (or gas) would be really interesting.
From what I understand in the past consumer reports reviews can be questionable as reported some of the reviewers went on to go to work for the some of the companies they reviewed products of.
@@marcusbrown188 Not true. I have over 60 years' experience with Consumer Reports, and have at least 30 years of issues here. They are not what they once were, but they still do a decent job, especially on autos, large appliances, and other very costly items not practical for Project Farm to test. Consumer Reports does NOT accept advertising, unlike their competitors in print, and they are a tax-exempt organization. You cannot be impartial when accepting ads. Project farm tests items CR has not tested, at least in recent years. But at one time, CR did test the type items tested by Project Farm now. Both are necessary. Project farm does a very nice job on the items he tests.
Excellent products analysis & comparison! You really hit the most important factors in this video: absorbability, durability, strength, & lint residue! Keep up the good work!
Believe it or not, Walmart “Great Value” brand powdered dishwasher detergent performs better than more expensive brands. The pods suck. Especially the liquid pack ones. The pack never completely dissolves and gums up the dispenser lid.
I wonder if there is a dishwasher detergent that will clean off cooked eggs, from cooking scrambled eggs in a bowl in the microwave. I have yet to find a detergent that can do it.
@@mercoid yeah, i use the same after try several other options. The pods sucks, too much marketing wank. However i would love to see a proper PF review.
I can vouch for Brawny for sure. As a kid I was Chief parts cleaner when my dad rebuilt his 350 Chevy engine. I cleaned parts with gasoline all day with 1 paper towel. My dad is gone now. sure wish I could go back to the 80s and clean parts for him again. Good times.
This is one of those rare times I would have loved to see a brand involved that wasn't. Viva paper towels are absolutely amazing and I would bet they would have easily been the best paper towel brand, I use them as dish washing towels and I throw them out before they break down. I have the great value strong brand and it doesn't even touch the Viva in anything we use them for.
For household use, I have bought Bounty Towels since they were introduced in the 1960's. I buy them for their quick absorption. They still do a great job in the kitchen. Nice video! Thanks!
I prefer the Costco "short sheet", white paper towels, as well as the Scot, blue shop towels, in the garage. I think the Scot blues are just extremely versatile, all around. As other commenters have said, there is a trade off between toighness, and absorbency. The Scot blues seem to have a perfect, all around balance when it comes to being lint free, strong enough to not fall apart while detailing wheels on a car, for example. And the one thing I do love about them, is that they are pretty damn soft. And they tend not to easily scratch plastics, clearcoats, etc. Soft enough that I tape two of them down (still connected together), on a flat wooden TV tray, when I search coin rolls, for high MS grade coins. These towels don't scratch the delicate fields in the coins, and they are thick enough that the coins stay put, and dont slide around. Great video! Thanks PJ!
I use Scott Blue shop towels to clean around the house. No lint, and they hold up better than paper towels, and often I only need to use two sheets to clean what I want.
Dude, the gasket portion was amazing. I am amazed at the amount of detail you put into these. I use the Blue Scott at home. I plan to change that later. Thank you so much.
Ooh yes sometimes I give up and use dish soap to cut through it(oil, grease, etc) but it's terrible to my skin, especially when it's winter and everything is super dry and it's below freezing outside.
Super helpful video. Thank you! Jan 2023 per sheet prices on amzn: Wypall (11 "x 16.8") Blue $0.18, White $0.24 Sontara (12" x 12") EC/Blue $0.17, Aerospace/White $0.18 Wypall prices are for 160sht box. Sontara is for 1000sht case.
Good one! I use Murphy’s a lot. For wood, of course, but it’s also great for spot cleaning cat vomit from quality wool rugs. The vegetable oil base is gentle on wool.
I truly never thought I would be utterly stunned seeing someone pull apart paper towels. But the Wypall difference actually made me go, "woah really?" I truly appreciate all the videos you make. Even seeing all your testing appartus and the difference in products in the same field is amazing to me. Thank you for doing this.
WypAlls have been amazing when provided by companies. Can't bring myself to spend that much money for disposable towels, but they're shockingly great. Edit: Wow, had no idea they were only middle-of-the-pack on price!
I know it's an older video,but I've been using both Wypall and Bounty both in the shop,home, and race track for years. Both are definitely worth the money!
In the next one, please try wypall x90s and wypall “oil grease and ink”. Actually, on second though, it would be nice to see an all wypall test, through all of their different grades. I have a roll of x90 in the shop, and some of them have been in the mineral spirits solvent tank for over a year without breaking down. Also, it would be nice to see a comparison of oil absorb any mats with the different ratings and brands. Pig vs all the other knock offs.
We use wypall at my shop and they are great. Would love to see a full product line review of absorbing mats/snakes as well, we have some that will lay in water and absorb oil and not the water it’s crazy.
Thanks again Tod, this one is a great video and one I can use every day! IDEA: please test spray paints. I almost always am dissipointed with the can clogging, or splattering on the final coat, or... you name it. There has to be one or two reliable brands out there. I seemingly have tried them all. Thanks so much for the most useful videos on You Tube!
Pretty impressive the ways you come up to test these things. You have the brain of a rocket scientist! Most of us DIYers are soo fortunate to have access to your videos and mind... Thanks a MIL!
Always love your videos. I just wish you'd included Viva towels. Priced like a paper towel but with a thicker feel, more like a shop towel, I'm wondering if they wouldn't do well in the price/performance ratio.
I was going to post the same thing. I highly recommend Viva "Signature Cloth" paper towels. They are extremely absorbent, very low shed, and durable enough that you can ACTUALLY wring them out and reuse multiple times. The rolls are tiny for what they cost, but one tiny sheet dries as well as two name brand full sized sheets and is about as durable as four. Avoid the "multi-surface" ones since they're basically a better version of Bounty, unless you want regular style paper towels.
Could you have a table on screen that filled with the results as you showed them, it would be cool to keep track of the results as they came in, love the channel!
I know I don’t have much shop experience with these towels, but I’ve been working in kitchens for years and Wypall is the only brand I’ve ever seen and obviously for a good reason. They are more often then not better than a cloth at picking up spills. I’ve had to clean up oil spills in kitchens that are huge (50+ Litres) and with Wypall it doesn’t take a lot that’s for sure. Great video, love your content!
I always laugh at those commercials with the most comically, over dramatic "accidents". Like, yeah, the accidents happen I'm sure but I'm not going to revert to a 10th grade theatrical version of myself because of it. It's usually just a mumbled curse word at best...
For session #2, try Sam's Club (Member's Mark), Costco (Kirkland) against Griot's Garage brand ;-) I also want to see how abrasive all these various brands are on a glass windshield.
An important point on the Scott blue shop towels. I had bought some Scott shop towels in the automotive section at my local Meijer store. They were super tough and great. A couple weeks later I went to Autozone and bought 6 quarts of oil to change in my 4Runner and they were offering 2 rolls of blue Scott shop towels for $2. I really like the ones I had purchased before and thought 2 rolls for 2 bucks was a bargain. Except when I opened them, they weren't the same Scott shop towel. The blue towels I had bought at Meijer were a quilted towel that was fantastic and super tough. The bargain from Autozone was a much cheaper version that wasn't quilted and literally fell apart when it used them to clean something with acetone. I think that cheaper, disappointing Scott shop towel is the blue shop towel that was part of his test here. Scott shop towels more than pass the test, but look at them carefully. The blue quilted Scott towels are the good ones.
i only care about the shedding! so this can come in handy! but yeah the strength or absorbtion, who cares, they are paper towels! you can just grab a few more lol but the shedding can be a big issue on certain surfaces
How can someone dislike these? The effort alone deserves a like. He gives you all the information to show you exactly what his opinion is based on. Haters are going to hate I guess like the kids say.
I just use old cloth towel's, instead of trowing them out. They get a second purpose and i save money. I wash them in a old used washing machine i found on the roadside, it just needed a new plug.
Bounty was 1st for absorbency and 2nd for absorbency speed compared to a paper towel costing nearly 4 times as much. I think it did alright considering.
Loved the video! Would you consider testing anti-freeze/coolant? Do the fancy modern technology coolants actually perform any better than the old stuff we've been using for generations? Keep up the good work!
Thank you for taking the painstaking time to scientifically utilize information. My family definitely appreciates this information! In today's economy we need the best value for our own practical uses!
Related note: Blue show towels hold up very well with Dry Ice and LN2 use. In XOC (Extreme OverClocking computers) we use Blue towels as a 1st layer to soak any excess moisture from pull down and heat up.
I've been using the toolbox brand from harbor freight for a couple years and they work well. I really like the larger rolls they sell for $11 and they sell a dispenser that holds the big rolls so you can refill it easily and not throw away the container every time. As seen here they aren't the best but the price is good and I use enough that it's a good option for the money
You and whoever suggested this comparison are doing God's work. Thank you for taking the time to do something that we all really needed but we're all too lazy to experiment with for ourselves. The high tensile strength while wet towels probably are the best ones to wring out and reuse. I hope my mother never finds out I described disposable towels with the above sentence.
9:51 -- Such a fascinating test. It appears that the household towels are prioritizing adsorption at the cost of durability, and the commercial towels are prioritizing durability over adsorption. The outlier and worst brand by far is Brawney: a very expensive towel which is neither absorbent nor durable. (Maybe Brawney should have spent less time deciding on whether their lumberjack has a beard or not and more time on making quality towels 😂)

ProjectFarm really is the the best I’ve watched since the beginning and have watched the channel evolve and grow! This channel will be huge as time goes on!
What an awesome tribute.
You should check out The Essential Craftsman channel too. He's got that father figure vibe too.
@@jonathantaylor6926 Wrangler Star definitely shares tons of wisdom in his videos, I've learned more about axes than will probably ever serve me, but all the tips and techniques he uses when doing stuff has taught and saved me time and money, very much like Project Farm!
The video we didn’t know we wanted, but the video we needed.
Thanks!
Aint that the truck totally agree
I suggested doing the disposable shop towels and thought maybe it was a dumb idea. Now I am glad I suggested it and of course PROJECT FARM did a great job as usual. If you have any ideas don't be afraid to suggest them.
This!
Probably the most consistent channel on YT. I chucked a little seeing the various testing methods just for paper towels, but being thorough is one of Project Farm's claim to fame. Gotta love it!
Thanks!
Between LockPickingLawyer and Project Farm, you're giving a lot of product packaging advertisers anxiety.
I wonder now how absorbent the "Slash proof" bags are. lol
@@brianstevens3858 I wonder if any of these towels (layered) are more slash resistant than what he has tested so far
@@brianstevens3858 Those bags scratch at a level one, with deeper grooves at level two...
I've been using the Great Value brand for a very long time. For the money, it's a good paper towel. I always wanted to know which paper towel is best for low lint use. Thanks for another great testing video!
Likewise low lint is important to me. I usually struggle with lint when cleaning gasket surfaces and find myself wiping several times to remove the lint from the last wipe. It probably doesn't matter but when you want something to last 100,000 or more then you don't want it take chances!
You are welcome!
Is that .03 per half sheet or two half sheets?

@@darinp5612 Hi, can i get return shipping labels for 8 products that dont meet my expectations as a head gasket?
😂😂😂😂
I'm an aircraft mechanic and we use Sontara wipes. Their main purpose is to clean surfaces before applying sealants/paint so it's really important they don't leave behind fibers. If we have to clean up any kind of spill from oil, grease or hydraulic fluid we use PIG mats, which are hydrophobic and only collect the hazardous chemicals
Thanks for sharing.
When you can make me sit and watch until the end of a paper towel test, you've really achieved something special.
Wow, thanks!
I love the "oh no, I spilled the oil" scene, I can imagine they used something just like that in an actual ad for one of these products.
Thanks!
Especially the "oh, I didn't spill enough, let add a little more"
That scene exposed some latent PTSD for me. Lol
I love the Sontara wipes. We use them in our maintenance back-shops in the Air Force. Thank you Project Farm for the amazing quality and dedication you put in your videos!
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.

@@internet_internet Holy crap I didn’t know that!
Huge fan of the channel. Love the non-sponsored, purely data based reviews of products in a variety of common uses. Appreciate your short summary of findings at the end where you typically cover most economical, best, and your choice. Keep up the awesome content!
Thanks, will do!
I’d love to see a microfiber rag test too
Yes! All the new ones just smear like they are coated with wax.
@@hertzer2000 Maybe they have been treated with fabric softener at the factory to make them feel fluffier? The test would be if they absorb better after washing.
I have been using the 16 inch MATCC brand microfiber cleaning cloths (from Amazon) for a while now. They are thick microfiber on one side and thin on the other. The MATCC microfiber cloths work great for automotive detailing, especially for glass. Just make sure you wash them (without fabric softener) before using them, as with all microfiber cloths. That way they don't smear or shed during use.
Thanks for the suggestion.
This should include a cotton t shirt or polyester t shirt cut rags
Can we appreciate oil being dumped on the floor for a “scenario” that is commitment. Is there a concrete cleaner video in our future?
I felt guilty watching that.
Yeah that made me sad. Maybe he filmed that a year ago and it was an accident and he finally found a use for the footage. I like to think that's what happened.
Thanks for the video idea.
That was a hard-to-watch spill!
My dad said that they used Tabasco sauce to clean concrete at his old workplace.
“The quicker picker upper”
“We’re gonna test that”
Never knew that could have been so funny. I’ll never look at another roll of Bounty the same way again.
lol
I’m willing to bet the bounty marketing team never thought they’d have to worry about their quicker picker upper claim to get the project farm “we’re going to test that” treatment! Haha
Didn't say what they're quicker than.
Turns out it is, in fact, a pretty quick picker upper.
I was honestly surprised that it beat out the other brands for capillary action and capacity, esp considering the prices of what it was up against
Scott Pro shop towels are my favorites. The extra texture makes a big difference over standard "flat" shop towels.
But I still have a place in my heart for the old red cloth shop towels. As far back as I can remember, my late grandpa always had one of these in his back pocket when he was working.
Thanks for sharing!
Man, corporate boards must live in fear of your videos coming out! The rest of us love your amazing content, Todd. Thanks so much for all your hard work!
I've been using Scott ones forever, looks like a change is in order. Thank you for your awesome videos!
You are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
Me, too, because you can get them in a big, 10-roll multi-pack from Costco. I've got my eye on those Wypalls, though...
I think Kimberly Clark actually is Scott. It really likely just comes down to the fact that the white box Kimberly Clark ones are meant for pretty brutal industrial use whereas the blue Scott towels can pretty much be bought at Walmart by any Tom Dick and Harry. I've honestly used them all in my years, but in my house we use the Bounty towels because they don't scratch and they are quick spill cleaners. We do have some Scott blue towels in our garage just for drying our hands basically. I honestly just use the run down microfiber rags for just about everything in my garage though. Worst case scenario they get too destroyed to be worth washing and I throw them out. But they were junk at that point anyway.
They used to be a lot better, but the past few years the quality has just plummeted
Same here
The chuckle when using as a gasket was funny! As always a great video
Thank you!

I dont know how to send a message for a suggestion so im hoping you will read my suggestion.
Here in the UK there is this weed called Mares Tail / Horse Tail.
I am wondering if you could do a test to see which methods totally gets rid if them.
Such as wd40, weed killers and home made pestisde. It would be really helpful.
“The quicker picker upper”……. Thank you….thank you so much for reading that out! Made my day. Loved this one…..gonna switch out my shop towels for wypall and keep some bounty around for spills! Love this channel.

Hands down my favorite product review channel on youtube. Who else would test something as random as paper towels this throughly and somehow make it genuinely interesting to watch!
Thanks!
Don’t think I’ve ever seen you get as excited as you did by the shop towel staying together for a min as a head gasket. Love it. And i was just saying the other day how impressive it was that respond to comments still even though you get thousands… “Very Impressive!!”
Thanks!
Never thought I'd need to know this. But you know what. Now I'm glad I do. Love the vids!

Doing an umbrella test seems like a good idea. You could do durability of the fabric, weight, grip ergonomics, wind resistance, and a drop test.

@@ProjectFarm I recommend trying the Kirkland Ultra Clean, curious about that since I use it and it seems to work well, especially ran hot.

@@natebaker719 oh, good idea.
Compare hot and cold washes.
I LOVE THIS CHANNEL you’ve picked out my welder, my resin, my drill, my batteries like dude you save me so much money I love this channel
The question that no one asks but wish they did.
"Can you use a paper towel in place of a gasket?"
Loved that segment.
He has to test everything in a lawnmower, it's his trademark.
Thanks!
Seeing you spill that oil got me thinking; which is better, Oil-Dri, or kitty litter?
Great video idea!
Good idea! Sawdust too, and diapers. We called them diapers in the air force, i think they're called pig pads? They absorb petroleum products, not water.
On the farm I've found wheat dust from the combine works as a pretty good absorber as well.
I don’t know the answer to that question, but my wife’s cat uses oil-dri in her litter box. I can buy a 30lb bag for $6 at the local heavy duty parts house. I don’t even like cats, so there is no way I am paying the mark up on kitty litter.
@@athhud how does it do with the smell?
"Claims to be the quicker picker upper, we're gonna test that" killed me
Thanks for watching!
I loved the announcing, like we were watching a sporting event.
I came here just to hear him say that.
Your reviews are more valuable than Consumer Reports! I'm sure you have this on your idea list already, but a review on battery leaf blowers (or gas) would be really interesting.
Thanks for the video idea.
CR just recommends whatever is expensive rather than what is good enough for what it is
From what I understand in the past consumer reports reviews can be questionable as reported some of the reviewers went on to go to work for the some of the companies they reviewed products of.
Very true, Project Farm uses well thought out, and much better testing than consumer reports
@@marcusbrown188 Not true. I have over 60 years' experience with Consumer Reports, and have at least 30 years of issues here. They are not what they once were, but they still do a decent job, especially on autos, large appliances, and other very costly items not practical for Project Farm to test. Consumer Reports does NOT accept advertising, unlike their competitors in print, and they are a tax-exempt organization. You cannot be impartial when accepting ads. Project farm tests items CR has not tested, at least in recent years. But at one time, CR did test the type items tested by Project Farm now. Both are necessary. Project farm does a very nice job on the items he tests.
With that clip of you spilling oil on the floor I’d love to see you test some of the concrete cleaners on the market
Great suggestion! Thank you.
So when you are standing at the register in menards or harbor freight, do they ask if you are going to test that?
Excellent products analysis & comparison!
You really hit the most important factors in this video: absorbability, durability, strength, & lint residue!
Keep up the good work!
Thanks, will do!
Your testing methods are pure genius! Thanks again for spending your time to perform the tests.
You are welcome!
I never thought i would watch :
1) a 14 minutes video about paper towels
2) an interesting video about paper towels
Thanks for sharing!
"Thousands of uses. We're gonna test that!"
...we're going to be here a while, aren't we?
Would love to see a video testing dish washer detergent. It would be interesting to see if the detergent Pods work better than gel/powder too.
Believe it or not, Walmart “Great Value” brand powdered dishwasher detergent performs better than more expensive brands. The pods suck. Especially the liquid pack ones. The pack never completely dissolves and gums up the dispenser lid.
I wonder if there is a dishwasher detergent that will clean off cooked eggs, from cooking scrambled eggs in a bowl in the microwave. I have yet to find a detergent that can do it.
I'm a big fan of Bubble Bandit.
@@mercoid yeah, i use the same after try several other options. The pods sucks, too much marketing wank. However i would love to see a proper PF review.
Thanks for the suggestion.
I can vouch for Brawny for sure. As a kid I was Chief parts cleaner when my dad rebuilt his 350 Chevy engine.
I cleaned parts with gasoline all day with 1 paper towel.
My dad is gone now. sure wish I could go back to the 80s and clean parts for him again. Good times.
Thanks for sharing.
Incredible test! This is how reviews of anything sold should be done. Project farm thank you !
You are welcome!
This is one of those rare times I would have loved to see a brand involved that wasn't. Viva paper towels are absolutely amazing and I would bet they would have easily been the best paper towel brand, I use them as dish washing towels and I throw them out before they break down. I have the great value strong brand and it doesn't even touch the Viva in anything we use them for.
Viva is the only brand you can blow your nose with without tearing up your nose during cold and flu season. Ordinary facial tissues just don’t cut it.
I agree, those Viva towels are pretty good
Thanks for the suggestion.
Hell yeah! This is what I suggested and was waiting for, cause I roll through these in my garage! Thank you PF!
Thank you and sorry it's taken me so long to get to this request
It's often one of those overlooked items when I'm working on my car until I realized I really needed one that could hold up
what were you normally using and what are you switching to? ;)
Was the 'you ROLL rough these' pun intended?🙃🤔
For household use, I have bought Bounty Towels since they were introduced in the 1960's. I buy them for their quick absorption. They still do a great job in the kitchen. Nice video! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing!
I prefer the Costco "short sheet", white paper towels, as well as the Scot, blue shop towels, in the garage.
I think the Scot blues are just extremely versatile, all around. As other commenters have said, there is a trade off between toighness, and absorbency. The Scot blues seem to have a perfect, all around balance when it comes to being lint free, strong enough to not fall apart while detailing wheels on a car, for example.
And the one thing I do love about them, is that they are pretty damn soft. And they tend not to easily scratch plastics, clearcoats, etc. Soft enough that I tape two of them down (still connected together), on a flat wooden TV tray, when I search coin rolls, for high MS grade coins. These towels don't scratch the delicate fields in the coins, and they are thick enough that the coins stay put, and dont slide around.
Great video! Thanks PJ!
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
I use Scott Blue shop towels to clean around the house. No lint, and they hold up better than paper towels, and often I only need to use two sheets to clean what I want.
Dude, the gasket portion was amazing. I am amazed at the amount of detail you put into these. I use the Blue Scott at home. I plan to change that later. Thank you so much.
Would love to see you do a breakdown on different shop hand soaps. Great video as always!
Thanks! Thanks for the suggestion.
Ooh yes sometimes I give up and use dish soap to cut through it(oil, grease, etc) but it's terrible to my skin, especially when it's winter and everything is super dry and it's below freezing outside.
Spoiler, Cherry bomb wins.
Super helpful video. Thank you!

Video idea: wood cleaners-Murphy’s oil soap, cotton cleanser, etc
Thanks for the video idea.
Good one!
I use Murphy’s a lot. For wood, of course, but it’s also great for spot cleaning cat vomit from quality wool rugs. The vegetable oil base is gentle on wool.
I use Murphy's oil soap (diluted, but sometimes full strength) to clean hard to clean stainless steel, best cleaner I have found for stainless steel.
I truly never thought I would be utterly stunned seeing someone pull apart paper towels. But the Wypall difference actually made me go, "woah really?"
I truly appreciate all the videos you make. Even seeing all your testing appartus and the difference in products in the same field is amazing to me. Thank you for doing this.
You are welcome!
WypAlls have been amazing when provided by companies. Can't bring myself to spend that much money for disposable towels, but they're shockingly great.
Edit: Wow, had no idea they were only middle-of-the-pack on price!
I know it's an older video,but I've been using both Wypall and Bounty both in the shop,home, and race track for years. Both are definitely worth the money!
I almost feel like the entire "we're going to test that" meme has been leading up to seeing if bounty is truly the Quicker Picker Upper tm
Thanks for the feedback.
In the next one, please try wypall x90s and wypall “oil grease and ink”.
Actually, on second though, it would be nice to see an all wypall test, through all of their different grades.
I have a roll of x90 in the shop, and some of them have been in the mineral spirits solvent tank for over a year without breaking down.
Also, it would be nice to see a comparison of oil absorb any mats with the different ratings and brands. Pig vs all the other knock offs.
Thanks for the suggestion.
Found the Wypall employee! :P
@@drippingwax lol, nah definitely not, but I am a big fan of their product after I saw abom79 use it
We use wypall at my shop and they are great. Would love to see a full product line review of absorbing mats/snakes as well, we have some that will lay in water and absorb oil and not the water it’s crazy.
Thanks again Tod, this one is a great video and one I can use every day! IDEA: please test spray paints. I almost always am dissipointed with the can clogging, or splattering on the final coat, or... you name it. There has to be one or two reliable brands out there. I seemingly have tried them all. Thanks so much for the most useful videos on You Tube!
Thanks! Thanks for the video idea.
Pretty impressive the ways you come up to test these things. You have the brain of a rocket scientist! Most of us DIYers are soo fortunate to have access to your videos and mind... Thanks a MIL!
Thank you very much!
The companies featured should seriously consider slapping your rating on their product.
Thank you very much!
NO!
Well some of them at least xD
Always love your videos. I just wish you'd included Viva towels. Priced like a paper towel but with a thicker feel, more like a shop towel, I'm wondering if they wouldn't do well in the price/performance ratio.
I was going to post the same thing. I highly recommend Viva "Signature Cloth" paper towels. They are extremely absorbent, very low shed, and durable enough that you can ACTUALLY wring them out and reuse multiple times. The rolls are tiny for what they cost, but one tiny sheet dries as well as two name brand full sized sheets and is about as durable as four. Avoid the "multi-surface" ones since they're basically a better version of Bounty, unless you want regular style paper towels.
Yeah they're great towels, it's what I always get for the home.
The Viva towels are fantastic. I wish he had included them.
Could you have a table on screen that filled with the results as you showed them, it would be cool to keep track of the results as they came in, love the channel!
Thanks for the suggestion.
I know I don’t have much shop experience with these towels, but I’ve been working in kitchens for years and Wypall is the only brand I’ve ever seen and obviously for a good reason. They are more often then not better than a cloth at picking up spills. I’ve had to clean up oil spills in kitchens that are huge (50+ Litres) and with Wypall it doesn’t take a lot that’s for sure. Great video, love your content!
Thanks and you are welcome!
This is practically dad TV, if we’re all being honest with ourselves.
Edit: oh no! You filmed that spill at 8:15 just for us? That hurts my heart ha
Dude same that's the absolute worst. That has happened to me twice. Soo annoying. FML moment
I always laugh at those commercials with the most comically, over dramatic "accidents". Like, yeah, the accidents happen I'm sure but I'm not going to revert to a 10th grade theatrical version of myself because of it. It's usually just a mumbled curse word at best...
For session #2, try Sam's Club (Member's Mark), Costco (Kirkland) against Griot's Garage brand ;-) I also want to see how abrasive all these various brands are on a glass windshield.
Thanks for the suggestion.
I've used the Scott towels for years. Interesting to see how they stack up against other brands.
Try Viva. They're the best.

An important point on the Scott blue shop towels. I had bought some Scott shop towels in the automotive section at my local Meijer store. They were super tough and great. A couple weeks later I went to Autozone and bought 6 quarts of oil to change in my 4Runner and they were offering 2 rolls of blue Scott shop towels for $2. I really like the ones I had purchased before and thought 2 rolls for 2 bucks was a bargain. Except when I opened them, they weren't the same Scott shop towel. The blue towels I had bought at Meijer were a quilted towel that was fantastic and super tough. The bargain from Autozone was a much cheaper version that wasn't quilted and literally fell apart when it used them to clean something with acetone. I think that cheaper, disappointing Scott shop towel is the blue shop towel that was part of his test here. Scott shop towels more than pass the test, but look at them carefully. The blue quilted Scott towels are the good ones.
Thanks for the constructive feedback.
i only care about the shedding! so this can come in handy!
but yeah the strength or absorbtion, who cares, they are paper towels! you can just grab a few more lol
but the shedding can be a big issue on certain surfaces
Great point regarding shedding, especially on transmission or engine internals. Can definitely cause a lot of problems!
How can someone dislike these? The effort alone deserves a like. He gives you all the information to show you exactly what his opinion is based on. Haters are going to hate I guess like the kids say.
I just use old cloth towel's, instead of trowing them out. They get a second purpose and i save money. I wash them in a old used washing machine i found on the roadside, it just needed a new plug.
Thanks for sharing.

I've been using the toolbox brand from harbor freight for a couple years and they work well. I really like the larger rolls they sell for $11 and they sell a dispenser that holds the big rolls so you can refill it easily and not throw away the container every time.

Project Farm: Today we’re gonna run the Farmabago on Paper towels!!!
Wood gas generator style.
9:51 -- Such a fascinating test. It appears that the household towels are prioritizing adsorption at the cost of durability, and the commercial towels are prioritizing durability over adsorption.
The outlier and worst brand by far is Brawney: a very expensive towel which is neither absorbent nor durable. (Maybe Brawney should have spent less time deciding on whether their lumberjack has a beard or not and more time on making quality towels 😂)
Thanks! Thanks for the feedback.
