Have been using them for years now. Looking to get more. Got mine when I ordered my wax from Zymol.

They suggest washing them in hot then rince in warn 2 times and NO dryer sheet on cool. I air dry mine.

There is a fairly new natural fiber microfiber towel that I'm trying out. So far they seem great. I know a couple of Zaino dealers have started carrying them too. I'll look for the link when I get home.

I have one that I've used on everything but painted surfaces. They're excellent for picking up dust that regular cloth doesn't ...works almost as good as the dash duster and takes less room to pack.

The reports I've seen are some are good, some bad so try them out in an inconspicous place before hand

Like all other towels, (and 35th/Ed) posted, rinsing them twice is best. Limit your drying to air drying will result in fewer static problems too.

Thanks for the tips... other than Griots...any
other brands/places to buy them. I see them
at Kragan and Pep Boys but don't want to buy
them if they suck.

I'd stay away from the big auto parts stores for good quality towels. Everything I have seen there is junk. You might be able to find some good stuff but it's just as easy to order online.
