I'd like to order some microfiber cloths for waxing the L, so where is your favorite (online) source?

Thanks

P.S.: Here's the smallest of detailing tips if you have a stock hood. I hate trying to get the wax off around the winshield washer squirters in the hood, so I tried taking them out. They come out very easy, so it's just a small tip that makes life easier.

 

For buffing these are excellent. I have 3 of them:

For drying these are excellent. I have one and it will do the entire L:

For miscellaneous jobs, can be used for buffing as well and are really good. I have 3 of these:

It is amazing how these towels work and feel on the paint. After using them it makes the 100% cotton towels feel like sand paper on the paint.

These are excellent quality towels and you will not be disappointed…

Thanks for the input, all take other suggestions too.

 

I just use cotton towels. 100 % cotton MADE IN THE USA. That's the important part. Others have been known to have other materials incorporated in them which can be abrasive.

I use them for washing and drying. I sectioned one into four pieces for wash cloths and cut off the stiched edge.

 

I've been doing the same, but from what I've been reading, the microfiber towels (there are good and bad ones too) are a lot better than the best cotton towel.

 

I use the orange towels from www.detailersparadise.com for removing Zainos. They are the best I have ever used, and I have used a lot of towels, including $20 Fieldcrest 100% cotton towels. They leave no swirl marks at all, and they remove all the residue.

 

Costco sells micro fiber towels. Just bought a dozen 16" x 16" yesterday for $8.00 and change -- tried them last night and they seem to be the genuine article.

Might also want to try www.detailking.com. They sell a dozen for about $21.

FYI: For the pices that you cannot take off as easly, you can clean the wax off of them with a stiff tooth brush and some 409. It works good for me.
