What is APT Black and why choose it?

APT Black is Monster Shine's allround option within the Microfibre segment. The GSM of ~280 g/m² places the cloth in the mid-range – soft enough for sensitive paint surfaces yet stable enough to effectively Buff off wax and dressings. The price point makes it suitable for regular consumption in a detailing studio or a reconditioning workshop where cloths are replaced on a routine basis.

Thanks to the black finish, residues from dark products are less visible, making APT Black particularly practical when working with dark-coloured dressings and waxes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Does Monster Shine APT Black work for Buffing wax and dressings?

Yes. Monster Shine APT Black has been developed specifically for Buffing wax and working in dressings. The GSM of ~280 g/m² gives the cloth sufficient softness to avoid scratching the paint surface, whilst remaining stable enough to effectively remove product residues. The cloth is also suited for Polish and Sealant during the maintenance phase.

What are the dimensions and GSM of Monster Shine APT Black?

Monster Shine APT Black measures 40 x 40 cm and has a GSM of ~280 g/m². This is a standard format that works well for hand application on body panels, wheels, and interior surfaces. The size makes the cloth manageable even during longer working sessions in a detailing studio or reconditioning workshop.

What sets Monster Shine APT Black apart from other Microfibre cloths in the same segment?

Monster Shine APT Black combines an allround GSM (~280 g/m²) with a black finish that conceals residues from dark products such as tyre shine and dark dressings. Compared with thinner cloths of a lower GSM, APT Black contributes to a more even Buffing result thanks to the slightly thicker fibre.

How should Monster Shine APT Black be washed correctly?

Monster Shine recommends washing at a maximum of 30 °C with a small amount of mild detergent. Avoid fabric softener and tumble drying, as these can damage the microfibre strands. If the cloth has become stiff and hard after use, a small amount of white vinegar can be added to the wash to restore softness to the fibres.
