Cotton rags

Post by Ginjaninja »

Bit of a random query for you experts. Hope you can help.
Has anyone seen any bags of cut-up white cotton rags similar to the image below?
It's the kind a mechanic would use to degrease an oily part then dispose of the dirty rag.
Appreciate any help you can give.
:cheers:
GN.

All I've seen in the market is "Micro Fiber " Towels. Pretty good absorption level. I was a bit surprised.
I wouldn't have to manage my anger if people could learn to mange their stupidity!

I do use them for cleaning the bike & helmet and they are good but it's not something I'm going to buy and use once then throw away....

Not sure how or what you intend to use them for. Thai Watsadu sell material offcuts (pretty sure it's not cotton) The offcuts are sewn together into a cleaning pad/wad. They are in the decorating section. I use them around my workshop/hobby shop for cleaning etc. Sold in bundles and not expensive (approx 300mm x 300mm)

These should be what you are looking for. Close to the abrasive papers
