Which Microfiber Cloth Should I Choose?

Tuesday, June 29th, 2010

Often times you hear about how wonderful a microfiber cloth is but seldom do you know exactly what to use it on/for.

You’ll find that the biggest key factor when choosing a cloth is the “lint” level of the material. Cloths that are tightly woven or looped woven, normally are a low lint cloth. These are ideal for screen cleaning, or delicate surface cleaning.

Cloths that have cut fibers instead of loops tend to be quite linty as they are sheered at the ends.
This material is best used on general surfaces such a counter tops, equipment polishing, dusting and so on.


Below is a table that will hopefully help clarify the difference between the different weaves and textures.

Texture Feels like Lint Factor Uses
Silky Textures Silky, Smooth, Fine Very low lint. Loop, tight weave Lenses, Large & Small Screens, Glass, Jewelry, CD’s, DVD’s, etc.
Suede Textures Suede like, Soft, Thick Low lint. Better after one wash Critical screen cleaning, Cameras, Glass, GPS’s, etc.
Terry Textures/Large Loop weave Terry cloth towel, soft, thick Very linty due to the cut-weave material General hard surfaces, Automotive, General cleaning
Pattern Textures Depends on the material: some are the silky or more of thick cloth like the suede Very little to very low lint with most Cloths with a pattern (ex: our “Bubble” Microfiber Cloth #355) usually have a better ability to scoop up dust and debris since they have a “groove” to lock the particles in to.

One of the coolest characteristics about the microfiber cloth is that you can clean a smudgy/dirty surface with your cloth dampened by only water! And they’re so eco friendly because they’re washable! Cutting down on waste, helping you to help save the planet!

We do offer many different microfiber cloths, but it’s up to you in which you like best.

Our Goal

Tuesday, June 8th, 2010

Here at Photodon.com, we strive to offer quality products at affordable prices.

Before a product is added to our store, we test it in our offices, in our workshops, at our homes, at our family and friend’s homes; sometimes we even send out samples in exchange for consumer feedback.
If it doesn’t fly with us, we won’t even try to sell it to you! And believe me, we’ve tested quite a bit of product!
What we put forward is what we know to be the best, and our customers deserve the best.

There are a lot of businesses out there that offer specialty cleaners, microfiber cloths, monitor hoods, and screen protective film. So we’re working hard to give you good enough reason to shop our store and keep you coming back.

Although good products at good prices is only “a piece of the pie”. Our customer service staff is friendly and accommodating. If you ever have a question or concern about a product, your order, or how we do business, a real, live, person will answer your call or respond to your email.
If there is a problem, we’ll go out of our way to make it right.
Your satisfaction matters to us. YOU matter to us. You’re not an order number here! You’re a very important part of how we run our online store and you’ll always be appreciated for stopping by.

We have the ability of fulfilling large orders, and custom orders, but we want to give that small town store feel when you’re doing business with us.

Remember we’re always opened to suggestions! Follow us on Twitter, Like us of Facebook, or contact us via phone or email. We’d love to hear from you.

I’m outta here for now! Take Care!
