Shop Towels (Pack of 25, 13 X 13 Inches) Commercial Grade Machine Washable Cotton Washcloths Blue Shop Rag - Perfect for Auto Mechanic Work - by Utopia Towel

I bought these for use around the stables with my horses, but I've ended up using them around the house, instead. They're pretty sturdy and extremely useful. They fade a bit in the wash, and shrink ever-so-slightly, but are fairly absorbent and great for cleaning up all kinds of messes, dusting, use as polishing cloths for metal or leather, dishrags, etc. I'll probably end up ordering more for the stable later on. Pretty nice quality and amount for the price!

These are your standard shop towel. They come packaged in clear plastic with no logo or anything. I can only assume that the company buys them in bulk and repackages in smaller lots to sell. But, they work great and are pretty hardy.The reason I didn't give 5-stars is because they are noticeably thinner than other shop towels I have used in the past, but these will still get the job done at a good price. If you are burning through shop towels then these would be a good choice.

I got a pack of the blue towels for household use and for work on my bike. The individual towels are relatively thin, and not too absorbent,. However, in general they're strong enough to use to clean gears and chains without tearing, and they're cheap and plentiful enough that it's not a big deal if they do get ripped.However, at least with the blue towels, they bleed dye when they're wet. Therefore I wouldn't recommend using them in any color-sensitive application, and would make sure to wash them separately from any light colored fabrics. However, for cleaning tools and parts, they're fine and economical.

These are great for the money!! However -- lets be clear -- these are thin but useful for most projects around house and shop. I bought red and blue packs. They are NOT the the thicker ones like [50 New Blue Glass Cleaning Shop Towels Blue Huck Surgical Detailing Glass Towels-by GT] which are more like what you'll see in the more expensive surgical kits. These are more like the ones you see in the cheaper kits and a little better than what you get at the auto stores - these are a bit cheaper -- at least around here.Just a note for happy marriages -- DO NOT wash these with any clothes - the colors will bleed the first few washings, wash in cold water.[unless you and the spouse like pink underwear from the red towels!!!

I really wanted to like these towels since they are cheap, but man they just aren't good. They leave blue lint on everything even after washing which makes them useless for doing cleanup, and if you get them wet expect there to be blue on everything they are touching. They just do not hold the color in at all. I bought these just to use in my garage for cleanup and dirty jobs but I can't even use them for that. They actually make things worse. So now, unfortunately, I just used them to wipe the grease off my hands or paint and throw them away like a paper towel.

Great deal and nice shop towel. I use these in my wood turning business/shop for making hand turned shaving brushes; makeup brushes; bottle stoppers; and other items. They come in very handy and if one gets messed up beyond cleaning it up then throw it away and know that you don't have a fortune invested in a shop towel! Would buy again!

I have always loved this product in white. Since there was no choice of white, I chose the blue. Big mistake! The towels bled blue mess, everywhere, even after I washed all of them in the washing machine, twice. Since I use them to clean my white bathroom sinks and my kitchen counters, I had to rinse off the mess they left behind and wipe it with a washcloth. I do not recommend them, as long as they are dyed. The white ones are perfect, but they were not offered here.

I am 73. I have seen these shop towels in car shops for most of my life and have secretly admired them. Now I own 50 of them. Now I don't have to cut up bath towels to use for rags. Of all the products in the world this has to be the best and only $16. If you can't think of a million uses for them something is wrong.
