what do you use to dry your car after car wash?

I am just wondering what my other fellow 7th gens uses to dry their lovely civic right after their shower (carwash)?

I will start with mine... I use a piece of cloth made of 100% cotton... would that hurt my clear coat though? you know those swirls when you look closely at your car's paint(clear coat)... after I checked mine (clearcoat of my car) under the sunlight really closely.. I see tiny swirls.. I wonder where they came from... is it probably because how I dry my car (using this cloth)? well, not really that obvious if you look at from distance.. just worried.. it was probably because I used towel before to dry my car...

rckdrmr is on a distinguished road
it's been covered before... but i use the ABSORBER (comes in a plastic tube). it soaks up alot of the water, and is paint friendly (doesn't scratch). i like it alot better than a chamois, and it seems to last longer and doesn't get all rough and wear out quicker. you can find them for under $10 in wal-mart, target, etc...
