What color is the paint, my father has a beige f150 with metallic flake. You could dry it with steel wool and you wouldn't see the swirls. Now my plain black kia with no flake, I can get swirls just thinking about drying it with cotton.
I have always been a fan of the Autogeek waffle weave towels. With that said I use them generally in a Blot technique. I believe that is where they are the safest and most effective.
