I use 100% White cotton towels. I buy the expensive bath towels at Dillards...you get what you pay for. After I get the towel home I cut off the edges so only the soft part remains. When washing them only use Liquid detergent. I know this sounds ****...but trust me if you use any other type of towel you will scratch your car.

FYI: If you want the best shine, durability, and only want to wax your car twice a year give Zaino a try...you won't be disappointed.

PM me if you have questions.

Go ahead and use terry cloth towels and or cotton towels. Just make sure they are made in the USA, alot of terry cloth towels out there are made in pakistan and they will scratch your car. I know, I didn't feel like finding ones make in USA, so I just went with the others, car is scratched up, but I could care less.
