Hey Mike,
What process did you use to select the Miracle Towels for buffing the product off?
Before I could use the 303 Graphene Nano Coating I had to first wash the car to get it clean. As a "Best Practice" and also a professional courtesy to the owners of cars like these, I don't normally wash them with running water. The reason why it to avoid introducing water (running water from a hose), to cars like these to avoid causing rust in the places you cannot get to and dry. So I do a waterless or rinseless wash. For this car I did a waterless wash and I placed an order for 6 Miracle Towels. I used 4 towels for the waterless wash. This left me with 2 clean towels. So I used this to wipe-off the Graphene coating and I thought they worked really well. I normally don't use these towels because they are only availalbe in a rectangular shape and I like square towels. Dumb reason probably but that's how my brain works.
When you fold a rectangular towel 4-ways you end up with a rectangular towel that's larger than your hand. When your fold a square towel 4 ways you end up with a square towel that fits your hand. I've shared this on the forum before but here it is again. While still at Meguiar's, when they launced their Supreme Shine Microfiber Towel, which is a rectangular towel, I asked,
Why a rectangle?
The answer was to be different. Ugh...
Here's the deal, 16" by 16" square towels, when folded 4 ways gives you a folded towel that is 8" by 8" and it FITS YOUR HAND for wiping. When detailing a car - you do a LOT of wiping. So over the decades I find I much prefer square towels for all the thousands of cars I've wiped. Rectangle towels? They perform just as well as the shape has nothing to do with performance - it's just about how they fit a human hand. Also - in our storage cabinets, we have hundreds of towels and PILES or STACKS of square towels store better than piles or stacks of rectangular towels.
I chose the Cobra Forest Green Edgeless Polishing Cloth as my towel of choice to remove the coating.
Whenever I get the Miracle Towels it will definitely be easier to identify which ones are for removing the coating for sure.
Normally my own preference for any microfiber "tool" is a flat weave as a flat weave is much more resistant to becoming contaminated over time. It's really that simple.
Here's the deal - as long as a person keeps their towels off the ground, where they tend to become contaminated, then ANY towels is fine. The problem is - most people will tend to drop a towel onto the ground once in a while and any towel with a fluffy nap will tend to become contaminated. So flat weave is just a dumbed-down, safer option - over time.
