My current glass cloths are KD.

Just wanted to try a new stash.
Whaddya say. TRC or the GG PFM glass towels.
Re: the PFM, Don't really care much on the extra plush side.
I just enough cleaner just to cut the haze and then another towel to wipe it dry/flash

I used to use the cleaner sparingly too, until I realized that in doing so, all it did was smear the grunge around without breaking it up completely and letting the towel/cloth pick it all up. I now use Invisible Glass liberally and use the first towel to "wash" the glass - leaving some of the cleaner on the window and the 2nd to "dry" the glass, maybe even a 3rd cloth to 'buff' the glass.
 
Sprayaway, my preferred glass cleaner, flashes off pretty quick.
So using more doesn't necessarily help in cleaning. Just a quick pass to clean, and the 2nd towel to finish it off.

I guess it sorta depends whether you are using a ~can~ or bottle sprayer.
I like the cans, as they flash off nice and good.
Liquid spray bottles, not my preferred 1st choice
 
The PFM towels rock IMO. The long nap side is excellent for cutting through the greasy film and then the smooth silky side is great for finishing it off. I still use 2 towels when cleaning glass though.
 
My favorite glass towels I found by accident . Headed out of town with my wife for her work and the inside of her glass was filthy (she smokes in her car) stopped by wally world and grabbed some glass cleaner and a 3 Pak of towels (microfiber ) 1 glass 1 waffle 1 silk edged microfiber . I loved the glass towel . Dunno even what the brand name was . Those towels were supposed to be throw away but I gotta keep em lol. I would normally never buy from Walmart for detail #### but in a pinch it worked out

Tune it was the name lol sounds scary I know but that glass towel is nice

Everything Rasky said. The PFMs are my favorite glass towel I've used. Anyone I've recommended them to has always come back with positive reviews.
 
I use a waffle weave towel from "that place that sells rags". Lightish blue/gray with a silk edge. Love them.
 
I also have switched to the PFM glass towels. The long nap side is great for cleaning and the shorter side is great for polishing away any residue. You need to use multiple though as they get damp fast.
 
Never in my experience. I've used the regular grey PFM towels, the large PFM drying towel, and the PFM glass towels (blue double sided), and haven't ever had anything left behind. Their regular window microfibers used to be my go to for the streak free finish they left; I like the PFM glass towels even more because the deep nap to knock down the bulk of the dirt then chase with the tight knit side for no streaks. The smaller size and thickness they have helps keep them from bunching up like the old glass towels used to.

Hope this helps.
 
I've used the surgical huck towels with good results.
