I heard about this once. I'll stick to my Cobra glass towel.
 
My grandma , Ruthie, always used to say newspapers worked best.
But for me, I will stick with mf towels; after all, they did not have those then.
 
Cobra WW MF towel coupled with DP Krystal Vision is the best for me.

Same here. I do it day in and day out. DP's KV is simply the best out there.

They work great, but they have one thing wrong with them. On some the ink will transfer off the paper to your glass. Just be careful and watch out for the ink.

Agree.......no color, just black n white ink only also, not used for tinted glass , and very messy on the hands....otherwise??:applause:
 
just stick with mf towels...yes newspaper works...so do coffe filters...but all are obsolete with the mass production of mf towels...
 
I have never heard this myth, but I think ill stick with some MF's. I do sometimes us the empty paper towels rolls to dry cars. Who needs a guzzler when you have soft cardboard.
 
I've tried before and it worked, something about the ink helping to "polish" or something, problem was the papers would leave thin fibers as if a microfiber was linting. You can use them, but I'd stick with waffle weave for glass like the Cobra one.
 
Works great for me but you have to wash your hands after!
 
Newspapers work. I used to use them on some windows. I certainly would not use them on my car though.
 
I believe the Inkin the Newspaper helps to act like a "polish" to clean the window.
 
I've done it numerous times. It really works well. Though i did need a lot of newspaper.

Another downside is you can't exactly recycle the clump afterwards can you?
