Hey guys. I was wondering if any of you designate a specific towel for waterless washes and don't use it for any purpose but waterless washing.

Also, does anyone have a problem with dirt stains in their towels even after putting them in the laundry?

Yep, actually just bought some of the gold cobra jr 16x16 that I dedicated to my rinseless washing. After realizing that those werents enough, I've also added the pumpkin and green colored mf that are currently on BOGO. The long knap side of them are quite plush and have worked good for my rinseless washing.
I do have that problem of staining on my mf after washing. I use chemical guys mf cleaner and it cleans them well, but doesn't completely rid them of the stains. Thinking I may try presoaking them next time before the wash load and see if that helps at all
 
I use designated waterless wash towels,(these) in fact I have set of towels designated for everything, wax buffing, sealant buffing, door jambs, wheel wells, engine, windows, etc.....

As far as dirt stains, I never really have issues as Pinnacle Microfiber Rejuvinator and Blackfire Cleaner clean my towels exceptionally!
 
Long nap MFs are designated for my waterless washes. One suggestion is to stick to a light color long nap MF for the waterless washes. It is important to use a clean side of the MF for a proper waterless wash. If a dark blue or black MF is used, dirt would not be easy to see. If a dedicated MF wash is not being used then I would suggest BF or Pinnacle as others mentioned.
 
I have recently implemented the Garry Dean Wash Method and have 20 towels for rinseless washing. I still dont do much/any waterless washing as i just dont feel that there is enough lubrication to be safe.

The 3 towels I use for WW are the Euro Shag (Rag Shack Shag Rag), Microfiber Tech 600 gsm Plush green towels, and Chemical Guys Sasquatch Towels. Sometimes I will use the Euro Towels for other things like QDs. I wash them with BF MF Wash and it removes all stains.
 
I use costco microfiber towels. Wash them first and the fluff up and get bigger
 
For the pumpkin and green colored mf that are currently on BOGO, what is the difference other than color between these two? I need some but only want to buy one and leaning towards the pumpkin.

Thanks!

Color is the only thing that is different.
 
Does the weight of the towel matter that much as long as it has a side with a long nap?

The higher weight will provide a longer nap. Many responses will be given on the preferred MF weight for a waterless wash MF.

There's got to be a point where there's a long enough nap where any nap longer wouldn't really help at all.

Anyone like to use a towel with long and short nap by any chance? Or is it all long nap for this purpose
 
I use towels that are similar to Chinchillas for rinseless washings (for the wash part). Then use another one to almost-dry, and a regular/plush towel for the final dry.

Once the wet chinchilla is too dirty, the one that has been used for almost-drying rotates into that spot.
