I was wondering what is the most plush MF towel for the final wipe?
 
The Woobie

I bought these on BOGO, love them. I use them to remove wax or instant detailer. Very soft MF towels that stand up to several machine washing. Very plush.
 
Thanks guys Imma bump this .. And maybe once more for more opinions. thanks guys again!
 
Waffle weave really? You would think on soft paint that the waffle weave would be playing with fire due to its very short nap?

Seriously?!?!

Guys I wouldn't use those, (especially waffle weave) anywhere NEAR a "final wipe".

Some LSP's the 530 can work, especially a wax that has hazed or something like that.

But a final wipe is something totally different. I recently had a few additions to my 'collection', some I like a lot. Take a look here.

These are 600 & 700 gsm towels, both do an excellent job with no worries of swirls. I actually feel the 600 was a better value, (at least by the case). Nothing like a 130 or so of them to get things done right. Plus they are very affordable. ;)

Final wipe? I'm assuming your using some type of QD or spray wax? I always use waffle weave towels. I use these, because they glide across the paint much easier than super fluffy towels do and pick up and spread out liquids easily.

QD and Spray waxes are liquids - right? - so I find just like if your drying a car, a soft waffle weave works best. I used to use super fluffy towels, until I realized this and started using waffle weaves and they just worked much better. Plus, you will hardly ever have to worry about waffle weaves leaving any lint on dark cars.

In particular, I use waffle weave towels that are 16x27" from Microfiber Tech. I bought 10 of them for $30. I use those towels for drying, QD'ing, and spray waxing. The car has always been previously washed.

If your talking about buffing off a wax, I've been using CarPro's BOA towel.
 
I use the super soft deluxe microfiber towels sold here. There very reasonable price an great quality:)
 
For final wipe I use Carpro Angoras or Chinchillas.
 
I just used CarPro's "Koala" 570gsm dual sided Korean, unbelievably soft on both sides. This was perfect for my final wipe.
 
them carpro towels from Corey are awesome . I like everyone I have . the only one I don't is the koalas . might have to add to the collection . I like the blue angoras the best

I have a bunch of Angora's also, love em. I've been using them for waterless.

I used the BOA for buffing off LSP, couldn't be better.

You just can't beat Korean quality
