What is a Microfibre Cloth and why choose it?

A microfibre cloth consists of ultra-fine synthetic fibres that are considerably thinner than a human hair. This fibre structure allows the cloth to absorb large quantities of liquid, capture dirt and distribute products evenly without scratching or marking painted surfaces. A gsm rating of 500 means a thicker and softer cloth, which is advantageous during drying and Buffing where the risk of marks in the paintwork must be minimised.

FX PROTECT Microfibre 500 gsm is a reliable choice for detailers and reconditioning workshops that demand high standards of results. The dense fibre weave contributes to even application and effective drying without leaving lint residue or scratches.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the FX PROTECT Microfibre Cloth 500 gsm suitable for applying Coating and Sealant?

Yes, the FX PROTECT Microfibre Cloth 500 gsm is well suited for applying Coating and Sealant, though it is worth noting that a thick 500 gsm cloth is primarily developed for drying and Buffing. For applying thin layers of Coating, thinner applicator cloths or dedicated applicators are often recommended. The cloth does, however, work excellently for Buffing off excess Sealant and similar products after application.

What are the size and weight of the FX PROTECT Microfibre Cloth, and what does 500 gsm mean?

The FX PROTECT Microfibre Cloth measures 40x40 cm and has a gsm rating of 500. Gsm (grams per square metre) indicates the density and thickness of the cloth – the higher the value, the thicker and softer the cloth. A 500 gsm cloth is a medium-thick to thick cloth that offers good absorbency and a soft surface that is gentle on paintwork during drying and Buffing.

How does the FX PROTECT Microfibre Cloth 500 gsm differ from cloths with a lower gsm rating?

The FX PROTECT Microfibre Cloth at 500 gsm has a denser and softer fibre structure compared to thinner cloths of, for example, 300–350 gsm. The higher gsm rating provides better cushioning against the painted surface, which reduces the risk of marks during drying and Buffing. Thinner cloths with a lower gsm rating are better suited for applying thin product layers or for working on glass and interior surfaces, whilst the 500 gsm cloth is a reliable choice for drying bodywork and Buffing off Polish and Sealant.
