That must be the same product that the bloke who operates the 'Cafe 2U' van which services my work place uses to clean his coffee machine, milk spills, coffee grounds, machine wipe over and hand towel...same rag, 2 years, and still no fatalities....its just got to be a wonder rag. :wink:

David LaPlante uses Wonder Rags for his French Polishing. You might shoot him a PM at OLF or an email at his website. www.guitarsbydavidlaplante.com. I know he'd be glad to let you know where he get the stuff. I'd bet it's available at a mail order supplier like HERE

Sears carries them

well as Ace Hardware.

If you need something boxed up and shipped out, it might be better to do it after the holidays.

I've been using microfibre cleaning cloths for French polishing.
I just get them from my local Coles
Seems to work better than the old T shirt fabric
