Microfiber Towels Grades Explained: Fine, Medium, Heavy, King, and Point

Microfiber towels are essential tools in professional car detailing. However, not all microfiber towels are created equal. Different grades — Fine, Medium, Heavy, King, and Point — are engineered for different applications, GSM levels, softness, and durability.

As China’s largest car care product manufacturer, brilliachem (SGS, ISO, BSCI certified) provides full-grade microfiber towels through its professional export division carwashcn, supporting distributors, car wash chains, and global private-label brands.

This guide clearly explains each grade and helps you choose the right microfiber towel for your business.

What Are Microfiber Towel Grades?

Microfiber towel grades classify towels based on:

  • Softness & plush level

  • GSM (grams per square meter)

  • Intended detailing application

  • Durability & absorption capacity

The five common grades used in automotive detailing are:
Fine, Medium, Heavy, King, and Point.
