I was fortunate to be selected by the team at The Rag Company to be a Grambassador for the final quarter of 2020. I applied for the program with high hopes and couldn't believe my luck when I was chosen. My experience with TRC towels is quite limited since my favourite source of detailing tools and products (Carzilla) doesn't carry them. So, to have an opportunity to experience this slice of their towel product line is an absolute thrill. I received two big boxes of swag so this video showcases the bounty I received as well as the process I went through to integrate these new towels into my ever-expanding collection of towels and other detailing tools. I have to learn more about the various towels produced by TRC because their stock is expansive to say the least! I referred to the terry towels in the video as 16 x 16 245 GSM, but I have come to realize they are actually the 16 x 27 terry towels rated at 320 GSM. I'm still learning!
🤘 Stay RAD everyone!

This channel is nuts. Who’d have thought folding laundry is just as mesmerizing as a detail. Lol
And my wife mocked me! I told her she just didn't understand me...lol
the guys an artist. simple as that! I was watching this on the telly with my jaw dropped
Thanks Asif. I like to shoot creative footage to keep it interesting for me and the viewers.
If anyone deserves this amount of sway from The Rag Company, it’s you Rick. I’ve switched from using Costco towels to The Rag Company’s lineup. Great quality and I’ve also started using microfibre specific detergent.
That's very nice of to you say and it's nice to hear that you have made the step up form the Costco towels. I think Costco towels have their place, but it's always good to look at the more specific and higher quality options as well.
Let’s go ricky!
Do your homework.
I'm always thinking my microfiber collection is growing too large and then I come back to see your video of your massive collection of microfiber towels... I love it haha
You won't believe what I did yesterday...
When I stack folded towels I alternate the folded side as I stack. Just how my brain works. My wife laughed that I was watching a guy fold microfibre towels.👍🇨🇦
I don't have a hard and fast method, but I do like the folded edges visible for some reason.
You know you've arrived when Rag Co. sends you over a grand worth of towels and other swag as part of an ambassadorship. Congrats pal.
Yes, I am now the most spoiled suburban detailing dad on my block!
I would never have thought that microfibre towels would be so interesting.. But I now know the Rag Company exists.
Your Ambassadorship is complete ✔️
Plus I can buy these from a well known online selling app 😉
Haha. I sure do love my microfibres!
You definitely deserve this! Hard work really does pay off. I love how authentic your videos are an all. Congratulations!
That's such an awesome thing to say. I do try to keep things real.
Very awesome Rick and congratulations! 🎊🎈🍾🎉
Thanks so much
Congratulations my friend. Welcome to The Rag Company club. Nothing but the finest from them. You're gonna love the 500 eagles for soft paint, won't mare the paint at all. I have a ton of the cyclones, thats all I use to wash. Red and black might be 420 creature towels.
The reds are Drago's and the black ones are Creatures. Good eye! It has been so much fun re-working and re-imagining my towel use and collection. I highly suggest weekend warriors such as myself invest in a really good supply of MF towels.
@@RADGarage the creatures were very first set of towels i bought from the rag company years ago. I still have them till this day. They last a long time as long as you take care of them, which I know you will. I upgraded a bunch of them to the eagel edgeless about a year for my finish work and couldn't be happier. So happy for you my friend. Did you find out what those small ones are for? Lol...
I am still trying to figure out where I will use those little edgeless Eaglet 350's. Any suggestions would be appreciated!
@@RADGarage interior applications or very small pieces. I have just a few a use for the interior dashboards, consoles and polishing piano black finishes on interiors. Its better than a bulky 16×16.
Damn thats a hefty shipment of towels, during watching i just thought about the video from a few months back were you reorganized your towel cabinets. And now this😅 have fun with the new stuff Rick
I was just thinking about that vid 🤣
Honestly, reorganizing things is something I have always absolutely loved. Since this video, I have revamped things slightly, but the challenge of maximizing space is something I did as a little kid with my various collections.
Fantastic video, thank you for sharing Rick! Nothing quite like having an array of quality microfibre towels. Keep up the awesome content!
I'll do my best. Thanks man.
Awesome!! Congrats on the Grandbassadorship, if that's a word. Looking forward to seeing you rep a good company.
Thanks John. I should be a fun few months!
They look great! Just don’t let your wife seeing you fold your towels. She will have do the laundry from now on.Lol👍
Her and I have our "understandings"! LOL
great news rick,hope things will ease soon and go back to a bit of normality.stay safe ,thank you.
Thanks Jeff. I really miss the good old teaching days when we could have more group work and fun get-togethers.
Great they sent you that Rick! Always think you are one of the best!
You are such a nice man Humberto. And quick on the draw!
Damn ur that kid thats always first on Sandros videos!
Congrats Rick! Good to see you getting some love from the guys at TRC.
Honestly, they are so nice and so generous.
Rick, You are so neat, thorough and organized in everything you do! Very impressed. Subscribed after watching you on Pan’s channel. Looking forward to upcoming videos.
Welcome aboard! I find the garage a refuge from the stresses of daily life so being super neat and organized allows me to find my inner chi! ☯️
What a great gift! I love TRC's products. I use their Edgeless 360's, Double Twistress drying towels, their wash mits, and detailing brushes. Just placed another order this week for more goodies from them. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.
I'm sure I will. I hope you used the 15% RAD15 discount code! 🙏
This video makes me so excited!! Cant wait to receive my package! Im VERY interested in that IK sprayer!
You'll be chuffed! (Is that an Aussie term?)
@@RADGarage unsure if it's particular an Aussie saying but it's definitely the right word! Haha
I'm so global with my vocabulary! 🌏
@@RADGarage haha not a bad thing! Not hard to get the lingo over here! Just add an "-O" to everything!
So you'd be Rick-O and you're going to go down to the Serve-O to grab some milk for the Miss-O 🤣🤣🤣
I'll definitely be adding that to my toolbox.
It warms my heart that the christmas towels still will be in your vid. Still makes me smile everytime I see them. I think The Rag Company could not have choosen a finer Grambassador.
You Swedes are so gracious!
Congrats, Rick! Excited for you!
Thanks Michael.
You are SET for life..congratulations ❤️
Totally!
Contrats Rick, that's well deserved after that hard work and dedication you put in each of your videos and detailing work for these past few years. Not an easy thing to combine family, work, detailing, videos edit ...!!!
Thank you very much! Yes, finding that balance is critical and it is very nice of you to recognize the challenges this presents. I hope you are finding ways to stay energized and happy! Take care.
Congrats on your goodies from TRC! If Adams' isn't sending you stuff, they should. Have a great day and lQQk forward to the next video! Cheers
They used to. 😔
Thanks Rich. See you on the next one...
You have earned the Title of GramBassador, please keep the awesome content coming our way!!!!! I love the Rag Company towels, especially the Platinum Pluffle!!!!!
The "Platinum Pluffle"? I'm going to need that just for the name! Thanks for the support and feedback!
An excellent recognition of your stunning work Rick. I fully understand as a secondary school teacher myself teaching what you would call Grade 7 to 12, our final year. As we ramp up for our summer break here I’m looking forward to some satisfying details. I wish I had your videography skills as I have a Porsche Cayenne, Maserati GranSport Cabriolet and Audi Q5 S line lined up already. Now its back to exam marking and report writing. Thanks again for some more great videography. Lloyd
Game recognizes game. Stay strong brother and good luck with your reports. Not fun, but important work.
Awesome rags, great company. Bless you, man, as a teacher I know firsthand what you are all going through and just want to say thank you for doing what you do for the kids. My wife teaches also. 2020 is a crazy year for sure. As always, great content!
Thanks Joshua, I really appreciate that. All the best to you and your wife providing essential service to your students. I will do my best to churn out videos that bring a bit of entertainment to the detailing community.
That is awesome Rick I think you will really like your Rag Company microfibers, I know I do!
I have already developed a deep bond with them!
Whether it's an automotive detailing video or a microfiber organization and wash video... both are just as satisfying to me for some reason. Maybe I just like order haha. I have a mystery rag bag from TRC coming in tomorrow, I'm hoping there's a gauntlet towel in there because I need a new drying towel, if I don't get one, I'll have to order one on my next order... with your discount code of course! I also need to pick up some terry towels. I must say, you've got tons of towels too! I've given a whole lot away and haven't picked up any new ones in a while, so it's about time! I do need to set up a better towel storage solution because I really don't like the plastic bins I have the stored in currently.
I don’t do well with disorder and chaos. A lot of the things that appeal to me about detailing relate to my deep desire for order, consistency and control. I have never pulled a trigger on a surprise pack/gift box for that very reason. I’d like to take a stab at one eventually, but not knowing what I’m buying kind of freaks me out! Lol. Storing towels in bins works from an organizational standpoint, but the accessibility a drawer or cabinet offers is nice. Keep me updated on how you make out with any future orders. I hope you get the Gauntlet! 🤞
This was a exciting unboxing! I am going to be ordering an IK sprayer soon 😍 the best part was watching the towels being folded 🥰🥰 wow who would of thought! 😅
Haha. Yeah, exciting times when I'm folding towels. ! !
@@RADGarage haha not so exciting when I fold towels 🤣
You got to have the right music playing in the background! ♫
This is great Rick, congrats again! I’m certain you will love their towels . Looking forward to seeing them in upcoming projects .
Thanks Bucky! It has been so great so far and I look forward to getting them dirty at some point when I get the floor and lighting projects completed.
@@RADGarage possible drain project? 👀
Just waiting from the company to send the crew. Ripping up the first 6' of the floor and adding a trench that will channel water to a sunken catch basin. Tired of water escaping and freezing. Weather has put them behind schedule but fingers crossed it happens soon.
@@RADGarage this is exciting. Patiently waiting.
@@Buckyvw I was patiently waiting, but now I'm kind of chomping at the bit because no more drips when I drive in and out of the garage and I can pretty much wash year round once it's done.
Omg I want 😍 I buy every weekend a pack to deatail some rolloffs over at Universal studios ....lmao I cut them to that small towel he used to cry! Jaja
Great idea!!
Seems you have even managed to turn getting some Cloths into and Art form. Nice one! Oh and well deserved for got to put that in!!
You can add cinematic drama to anything!
The gauntlet drying towel is the best! I have all sizes! I just started using their products myself and I love them!
It is a great towel. I need a bigger version though.
@@RADGarage I ordered the small sizes first and realized how great they were and immediately ordered the biggest
Swagtastic 👌🏼 always my go to brand for rags in the uk, I run the green edge less and grey 360’s all the time
It's incredible how many different towels they carry and I definitely have some homework! I'm looking forward to getting some detailing projects going once a few garage enhancements are complete.
Just won't let go of any of those towels. I think Rick's microfiber towel collection is officially his second child.
The towel collection falls nicely into place between my son and my Cockapoo. If you come visit at some point, I will give you some of my extras! Like 2 or 3.
Only the day 1s from Rad Garage know of those famous red and green towels of yours Rick and I was wondering when the Christmas tree towels were going to make an appearance in this video!!! LOL happy you got selected from TRC!
Haha. They have been with me through many years and projects and never once let me down! So ugly though...LOL
Glad for your success you did it the the Old Fashioned way You earned it 👍
Well, thank you. That's very cool of you to say.
They made a solid choice in picking you! Congrats!
Thanks. It's an honor for sure.
Congrats Rick and thank you cause I was able to save some money on a bunch of the new IK sprayers using your code.
That's great Steve. I'd love to hear more about how you use the IK sprayers and how you store them. They look so amazing.
Thanks for sharing I've learned a lot about towels and rags from u
I’m hardly an expert, I just like what I like! 🤘
Great towels! Great video!
Thanks for watching!
Good gosh Rick. That is one beautiful towel collection. And my wife thought I HAD too many microfiber towels. I'll be showing her this video here shortly to prove she is in fact WRONG. Well, maybe not (LOL), I need a few more of the new twisted loop towels (which I absolutely LOVE by the way, those things are my all time favorite, i've been using them for all sorts of vehicle related detailing projects). Really nice looking collection. I'm definitely getting me a few of those IK bottles. They look great and really heavy duty quality. I'm using the KWAZAR bottles primarily, but with the look of those IK's, I might be changing over to those. I've been trying to buy a few Pressol bottles from Matt Moreman but Obsessed Garage has been sold out for a while. I did just get an ADAMS pump sprayer which i'm not sure who makes it for Adams, but I really like that sprayer (I see you have a few of those up there on your shelf). Compared to my KWAZAR pump sprayers, I do like the Adams better.
I think winter is a great time to do research on new products and equipment and add a few necessities to the garage. Sounds like you have a few things on your radar, me as well. Don't tell Matt, but I am not a huge fan of the design of the Pressol bottle line. I might do you like you, and bring a few more IK's into the mix. Take care Joe.
@@RADGarage Yeah, those IK's look really good. I'm definitely going to buy one from the Rag Company to try out and if it works as good as I suspect, i'll be adding a few more. I see why I like the Adams pump sprayer so much now, it's an IK sprayer too! Hope you're winter isn't too bad buddy. Are temps are dropping fast, but nothing like what you experience up there in Canada. Always looking forward to your next video my friend. Stay safe RIck.
Super excited for you .....looks like Christmas morning !!!!!
It really lifted my spirits and I love how this is injecting energy and fun into my social media feeds.
@@RADGarage I’m happy for you........ I suggested adding some names (i.e.Left Front, Right Front, Left Rear, Right Rear) over your mat hanging clips. Not sure if that is on your list in the near future.
@@RADGarage it’s great to see your channel grow. I watched Matt (from OG) from the beginning and added small little thing/suggestions. It is great to see people doing things that make them happy !!!! KEEP UP THE AWESOME JOB !!!!!!!
Sweet!!! Love there towels!
That’s awesome
Thanks. It really made for a great garage weekend!
Your video production skills are well on par with your detailing expertise. Another great effort. Thank you. 👍
Both have become a strong passion of mine! Thanks.
Man what a haul!
I've never purchased The Rag Company towels yet until I just recently purchased a pack of blue 16 x 16 waffle weaves from them for cleaning glass. Haven't used them yet but I guess we're gonna see if they're any good.
Sounds like we are both going to have fun getting to know their products.
Jeez man this is Microfibre heaven!!
Cloth envy!! 😆👍🏼
It really is!
I am so, so jealous. I’m happy for you man!
Thanks Wayne.
I'm new to Rag Company also. I love their towels. I bought an IK foamer for the winter to keep the car clean.
Cool. I have had no luck getting my IK "Foamer" to foam. I have given up.
@@RADGarage ...really?? I use Wowo's soap. Maybe the little filter is clogged or the inside stem.
I checked for clogs, played around with the dilution and tried all the different colored tips - no luck.
@@RADGarage ....ugh....then return
WOW you can now be a reseller with all these rags lol
Oh, it has become even worse since I shot this vid! I have more towels than any one man could ever possibly need! 😂
Well deserved... And them cabinets were the perfect size... I'd of done exactly the same with them cloths and nicely folded 👌😂
Yes, the cabinets are prefect for towel storage. I don't think I need 1/2 the amount of towels I have, but this allows me to go a while before having to do a big towel wash.
Great video! Hugs from brazil
Awesome garage, this is the real deal and goal !
Glad you like it!
I am jealous! Wow thats a haul of towels. I like the looks of the red and black one which one is that?
I believe that is called the Drago. I ended up giving the vast majority of the Terry Towels away to friends. I white satisfied with my current collection of MF towels. Thanks for watching. 🤘
OCD kicking in...you need to pack the towels in the overhead cupboard with the SINGLE fold facing you so that they are easy to count/inventory and also to grab/restock. Nice swag!! I thought you were going to say you were giving away the extra towels you had in the last bin!!! ;-(
I may give those extras away at some point if I find I have no use for them. As for the fold, I wouldn't be able to pile them in four columns if I turned them 90 degrees. Good eye though!
new subscriber love your videos such quality and filmography is rare
Thanks for that. I do enjoy creating my videography projects.
god that's indeed enough for multiple life times .. now you just need to work on cloning your self enough to have a good Ricks to Towels ratio .. seriously though that's a great move from rag company .. keep up the good and high quality work Rick!
Their marketing team is operating on another level. I agree, this Grambassador program is very cool and I am honored to be a part of it.
Rick u are greta man, satisfying videos every time!
Thanks! I try my best.
WOW! looks great :D
Thanks Jim.
Definitely going to want more of the Eagle 500s!
I agree. Very nice towel.
I didn't even know about the Grambassador thing, but proud that they choose you! You got more towels than I could dream of, hopefully I can build an arsenal such as yours over the years. I hope you will manage your current stress from teaching and all, I bet the plushest one of all (5:55) helps with that. Seeing the car in your garage, a question came to mind: What percentage of other people's cars do you detail without filming and uploading?
Haha, the Cockapoo is definitely the best (and plushest) of all. I would say that 3/4 of my projects become immortalized in video. I find details without videos to be incredibly easy and quick!
@@RADGarage Thanks! I totally understand, I couldn't imagine setting up the camera, thinking about shots and angles all the time. Hats off!
Ice video as always. Question, what towel do you use for ceramic removal and do you throw it away once used? What about a blower for drying vs towel? Picking up a Big Boi to minimize scratching....
Thanks. Currently, I use the Detail Popo 320 GSM "Ocean Weave" towel to remove coating and then I toss them. I hate throwing away good towels but at least these are a great deal. carzilla.ca/products/detail-popo-ocean-weave-towel-320-gsm?_pos=1&_sid=3fff1a1ac&_ss=r&ref=RADGARAGE
I used to dry the entire car with my Master Blaster, but now I have taken to drying most of it with a quality drying towel and using the MB to get the water out of the places the towel just can get to. I love my blower though. It's the only way to ensure the car is bone dry prior to coating.
Nice haul!
Thanks! I made out like a bandit.
A little game of Simon Says!
Great score by the way.
Quelle chance j’adore ses microfibres c’est mon rêve d’en avoir autant 👍👍👍
C'est un rêve devenu réalité!
I use the Spectrum 420 black as my wheel towels (drying, quick detail)
I can see why. I've never had so many options at my disposal as I do now. I'm totally watching your garage build. Keep up the great work there!
1st from Puerto Rico 👍🇵🇷
As usual! 👍
Wow you deserve it!!!!
Thank you so much 😀
I love your videos, greetings from Madrid (Spain)
I really appreciate that.
Good day ☀️Ambassador Rick, maybe you will give us much more informations about those microfibers in future detailing videos. I just got a complete set of microfiber from Obsessed Garage, total 100 towels. Looking forward a another video for the chemicals you got from TRC, I think Beads Maker will show up. Take care💪
I plan on sharing my insights once I have a chance to work with them. Sounds like you have a thing for MF towels like me! Yes, I anticipate the chemical shipment to include some P&S goodies. Can't wait and I will be sure to share.
Yes,I knew MF is so important for detailing.
Don’t think you’ll be buying more towels anytime soon.
Love TRC just ordered a bunch of all purpose towels from them for interiors and I absolutely love their dry me a river waffle weave towel for glass.
My favorite mitt is still Autofiber’s chinelle cuffless mitt and I love their dreadnaught drying towel too which is basically the same towel as the Liquid8r from TRC just not as big.
Also the TRC Eagle edgless and Autofiber’s Korean plush are pretty much the same towel too, both companies are super high quality though can’t go wrong with either.
Thanks for the insights Bryant. I definitely have enough towels for now and I think I have the right towel for every task. Time to use them now!
Awesome package, Thats mad ..Just wondering what you ended up dedicating with the colors with in the 245gsm all purpose Red, yellow, blue, green, black ? Thank You
Thanks for watching. I have 80% of those towels to friends and family and the rest have been relegated to utility purposes. They are great towels for those random jobs I run into around the garage. I love the black ones for exhaust tips but other than that, there’s no real colour code system for them.
@@RADGarage thank you
Man Rick, it's always nice to get a box of goodies! I'm sure this feels like Christmas.... Question, which towels do you use for polishing or removing polish and which towels do you use for glass cleaning????
Well, currently I am using my "Snow Blanket" white 350 GSM Detail Popo towels to remove polish residue and the Detail Popo 320 Weaved towels for glass and coating removal. I also have been enjoying the Adam's yellow glass towels but they do have a bit of lint to them. I will have to see how this new haul of TRC towels changes my process. Not sure yet.
@@RADGarage Rick currently I'm a novice and learning from you. GSM??? What company produce the towels and where can I purchase...
GSM is a measurement for how dense a towel is. It is a measurement of how many grams of fiber exist per square meter. The higher the GSM the denser the towel. The most dense towel I own is a 1400 GSM drying towel by Detail Popo. The thing is like a thick welcome mat you find in the foyer of a mansion! Most towel manufacturers will publish their GSM. The red, yellow, blue, black and green towels I got from Rag Company are rated at 320 GSM which is the perfect weight for a good all-purpose towel imho.
@@RADGarage Rick, what interior detail cleaner would you recommend?? I would guess, Adams!! Lolo
@@ceddy97 I do like the Adam’s Interior Cleaning gel but a new product from Lithium will be dropping soon called “Inner Clean”. I’ve used it only once but it is pretty awesome.
Jackpot!
Bullseye! 🎯
Those are nice stuffs
Thanks Binh.
Great video I watched your wheels cleaning video great again found you from pan the organizer when you speak to him say hello from me Stewart he said on the video u both email so say hi I link up with you chanal throw pan the organizer 👍
Not to many cloth then . Lol. 😄
That Pan is such a cool dude. I'm glad you found your way over to my channel and I hope you enjoy the videos I have produced. Sit back, relax and prepare to chill out! 🤘
Nice 🤩🤩
Thanks 🤗
What no rag company towels until now. Unbelievable. Enjoy
I just seemed to latch on to towels from other companies. Until now!
I use 3D products, there my go to, and close to me. Great stuff
Good stuff!
I've got 4 of those blue detail popo towels. They're literally like pillows lol
The 350's or the 500's? They are very nice.
@@RADGarage 500
@@TheCarDetailingChannel The Eagles seem just as satisfying so far.
Hey Rag Company. I’ll take the same order Rick got. Thanks. 🤣 jk Congrats Rick!
Be sure to apply the discount! LOL
I love microfiber towels haha
And brushes.
What's your opinion on using microfiber towels to wash with? One towel for each panel is what I've been doing recently
My opinion on any process is, if it works for you..do it. If it doesn't work for you...don't do it. There's a lot of detailers on RUclips who insist their way is THE way. I'm more of a "What works for you" kinda guy. I perform rinse less washes on my car in the winter and I am happy with the results. Just be sure you are using high quality towels and a high quality rinse less wash product.
@@RADGarage Hi Rad thanks for the taking the time to reply , really appreciate it. like I said in my previous comment you definitely keep it real and this just further proves your authenticity. I used to do the two bucket method but I personally found using one mitt was too dirty. I have been using several microfibre towels recently and it's giving results that I am more happy with, and somehow making my maintenance wash faster.
keep up the good work!
That's the best part of detailing to me. Modifying your practice until you get things just where they make sense for you. One way doesn't fit all situation. After the foam/pressure wash stage, I don't find the car has much dirt on it so I haven't been worried about the condition of the wash mitt at that stage.
What gsm microfiber you use for wipe polish residue ?
I've been using 350 GSM Detail Popo towels called "Snow Blanket". They have been working real well with a spritz of CarPro Eraser.
If I may ask, why did you wash the towels?
I always run a new batch of towels through a wash/dry to rid them of lint leftover from the production process.
They should do a pod cas with you as guest
That would be awesome. I would love to tell the listeners about how quickly things changed with the arrival of snow. What a complete mess!
@@RADGarage damn... and I complaint when i have 65°F
The Red with Green border, look like Chemical Guys.
Could be. I have had them so long I can’t remember where I got them.
That’s a lot of towels.. maybe give some away to your viewers 😀
I may have a giveaway at some point! For now, I am just basking in my good fortune!
How do you know when it's time to stop using a towel because it gets old?
Due to the volume of towels in my collection and the fact that I am always rotating them, I don't often find towels that end up failing. But, some of the thinner towels do develop snag and occasionally holes, so those get tossed. Most of my older towels have a lot of life left, but I give them away to make room for more!
@@RADGarage i understand that in your case you won't need towels for a long time.
I have one vehicle and i want three or four types of towels...
All-purpose,drying and very soft towels for fine dust or wax left over.
How many years do you think a drying towel in a regular 40x40 size can last me if i wash my car at least one time per week?
@@K_N_44 You can get years out of your towels if you wash them carefully using microfibre detergent and dry on low heat. I don’t always wash my drying towels since they are only wet. I hang dry them.
@@RADGarage yes i think not washing them every each time will make them last longer but I'm always afraid that they might have dirt trapped inside them that i can't see 🤣🤣
I mean i try my best in washing procedure but you never know what it can happen.
I might need to get a dedicated microfiber detergent because i wash them with regular detergent for handwashing clothes 😅
I am a fan of the microfibre detergent from 3D.
#Ragcompany_gimme gimme gimme!!!!! How do we get them in the UK?
Perhaps a UK viewer could respond? I know of at least one UK viewer that swears by Rag Company towels so they must be available.
Nice
Thanks Nick.
Para q necesitas tantas toallas ? Y Perdona mi ignorancia por que no hablo inglés y no sé lo que estás diciendo en el vídeo
It's a great question. I probably don't need ALL these towels, but having this amount does allow me to do a few projects back-to-back without having to preform a big wash. Mostly, this satisfies my love of having lots of quality products at my disposal in the garage. I hope this comment translates properly for you.
Wow
It's crazy, hey?
Iam in heaven. I wanna be a grambassader
They are now accepting entries for the Q2 Grambassador!
