as the title says it - im looking for some drying cloths to replace the microfiber. i need to know where i could find something that is 100% cashmere.

now dont ask why just yet and dont tell me its not good. ive seen what it does with my own eyes and i cannot believe it.

now to find a proper vendor.

 

Never heard that one before. But how is it on paint? Will it pass the scratch test?

Some further insight into this would be nice.

 

probably gonna be costly too!

Make sure the cashmere doesn't have a red dot on it.

 

I LOL'd.

 

I don't understand this myself, as microfiber is a finer material than cashmere. Microfiber is 10x thinner than a human hair and finer than silk as well.
Sounds like to me what you really need is to try a variety of towels until you find what you deem perfect.
I personally really like Phil's Uber drying towels. Other's don't like them a prefer something that has a softer feel (the Uber's are tight-knit). If that's you're case - allow me to suggest Danase Phat Towels. Danase.com has them and they're shag style microfiber's with a microfiber brand. Very durable and soft through a lot of use for me and they're worth a try.

other than that - g/l and keep us updated with the Rolls Royce style drying towels!

 

J.Crew has 100% cashmere scarfs. it's available through their catalog only.
bought one for the GF last year. it was like $60 or something. holiday sale.

 

A better choice, if your aim is to reduce the chance of paint imperfections, is to use a leaf blower/compressor with blow tip to blow the water off the car. Then use your MF towel to dab those remaining damp areas.

And this method is much faster than wiping the entire car.

 

Because of the oils in cashmere I didn't think cashmere was good at soaking up water.
