Unger stopped selling scrim towels?

I got some of those same ones a few months ago. They’re not the same. However, once they’re finally broken in they’re not a bad option. Took a long while to break them in though. Longer than the Ungers.

Yeah mine just showed up today. IMO, these things are total crap. I can see through them. They remind me of window sheers. (That see through fabric that is behind curtains),

Even if you boil these and take forever breaking them in, I don’t see how they are going to absorb water. There is no material in them. It’s like a fine woven fish net.

This is correct :slight_smile:

They do absorb water eventually. You’ll need more than one through the day (storefront). Boil them in a big enough pot where the boiling will roll them and beat them up. Funny enough they seem to be more tear resistant than Ungers.

This one is four or five months old and finally works right. Or maybe my bar has lowered.

Were the sales of scrims that low Chris?

Hucks are pretty standard, but I like scrims more than hucks, to detail.

I would say so. We first introduced Scrim to the USA about nine years ago. It never really took off. The internet guys liked it. But it was pretty unknown overall.

Unger trimmed a few things from the lineup this year. We will likely import it next year.

To detail glass or to mop up?

How’d it do? I’d say you’re better off using papertowels, surprisingly they work really well.

They are out of stock now too.

I used my fruit of looms today…

They seems to still have stock when I check, Its possible like WCR shop when an overseas buyer wishes to purchase it comes up with out of stock coz they don’t send to your location. just a thought.

Just fine. It was old enough that lint wasn’t an issue. My only real complaint is that it was hot walking around outside with a bath towel draped over my shoulder.

All the old timers in my market carry a bath towel over their shoulder on storefronts… like SteveO. But they use it to detail the glass.

The website said instock, they emailed and said they were out, then another email side, we can get you 6 ( I wanted 10) as they’ll be in stock in a few days. Very pricey shipping, but hey, I want them.

Yeah pricey shipping but dam it gets to my door fast. These guys are probably the best that I know of in aust. I will ring and leave a msg and boom!!! They always get back to me. As for the scrim I used it for a few times and thought it was crap! Didn’t know about breaking the baby in. Might have to give it another crack👍🏽
