Anyone in our stone world have a good source for buying paper towels by the pallet load? Its very inconvenient to keep going back to the store every two weeks or so. These would be the paper towels used in the shop and for the road crews. Any help would be nice.

I buy rags at Costco, best deal by far. Good quality terry and microfiber towels. I hate paper towels.

We have been using Sams club for years, but i was wondering if any one ordered any on line. Instead of sending someone out for an hour or so. Gas also is not very cheap.

I have talked to so many vendors and they all just pack up and leave after they find out what the prices are at Costco. They are the same quality and much cheaper that way. I go to buy them personally after work so I don't have to send anyone out.

Aldi's has the best prices around here. I buy several cases at a time. Smaller shop so they last a few months.

We have used Sam's club for years here as we don't have a Costco in town.
I will have to check out Aldi's for this as there is one 2 blocks from my shop.
We will typically buy more as we are getting low when we are driving by for templates or installs or my wife and I will pick them up when we are out shopping.

No compromise on quality in Paper Towels. I likes some unique brands such as: scotts shop towels, terry and microfiber towels and Sams club. I recommend to scotts shop towels which is best and quality based towels.

Why paper towels and no terry cloths?
One can get terry cloths from the uniform companies by the sac, (no joke).
I usually get about 200 towels for $40, if you get them directly from the driver of course...

Silicon clean up-
Don't touch it!!! Leave it alone until it dries. Leave fingerprints alone til they dry. Once dry, cut the excess off and clean up with acetone. Sometimes have to use a brush.
Or do it like I do and don't get silicon everywhere.

Denatured alchohol. Mek works the best if you put up with the smell.
