Default Microfiber towels and Zaino

I've been using a number of Microfiber towels over the last several months for cleaning, drying, and polishing. There seems to be a general consensus that microfiber is less likely to cause swirl marks than even the best cotton towels. I have used them to remove the Zaino Z-2, as some here have recommended here, and noticed that although they worked well at removing the residue, I was never able to get to the state where the towel just slipped over the surface with no friction. Yes, I have even used the extra large towel for this as well. I have now gone back to cotton towels for Zaino removal, and they are clearly superior. The finish is much glossier to the touch and shinier to the eye.

I still use microfiber for cleaning and drying, they are unsurpassed for this. Sal at Zaino is right on when he recommends cotton towels for Z-2 removal, they just work better.

Damn. I wish I would of known this. I just order $30 worth of microfiber towels just for zaino removal. I guess I can use them on windows and for cleaning the interior. Do these also work better than a sheep skin wash mit for washing?

I ordered the following towels from the following site:

http://store.yahoo.com/classic-motoring/vi...pmicdetclo.html
These towels appear to be used for applying and removing polish and wax.

Do a search for "microfiber" on that site. They have many more microfiber towels for different uses.
