Be careful of cheap towels.

Any brand names you'd like to mention?
Generally any " cheap " microfiber will scratch your paint .

I havent found any that will not scratch your paint, although the high end towels used correctly do not seem to.

I must be the only one that has a problem with how they feel on my hands. I don't think I have dry skin but they just feel funny. I stick with good 100% cotton.

Most micro fibers are made in South Korea of China. The one's made in South Korea are usually top quality the ones in China are usually good to poor quality.

I went with PakShak dot com. Bought a butt load of them. Happy so far. The quality is what I expected and wanted. Price not bad either.

some have nylon stitching on the edges and that can be the problem. When I do my car i use about 20 micro fibers. When I wash it I blow dry the car with my shop vac.

I've been using the Cosco yellow towels on my other vehicles, which seem much softer than those available at Target, etc. I haven't waxed the Viper yet, but based on the recommendations above, I've ordered a set of DF AlpineFiber towels. DF has 25% off a $50 order - hope they are worth it!

They are worth every penny as a buffing towel. They're horrible for drying but for use with a detail spray or for buffing a wax or polish off the car, they're the awesome. You'll love 'em. I've been using them with Zaino for a couple of years now.
I noticed that the Costco towels tend to **** after washing them. I've been using these from Griot's Speed Shine® Micro Fiber Cloths, Set Of Three - Griot's Garage . I can't seem to find anything that compares to these MF towels. Has anyone seen and/or used towels similiar to these?

Wow. Those actually look decently priced. Griot's can be a little high at times.
I bought the waffle weave from PakShak. Washing my car in the garage - not much drying from the sun - but using my water blade quickly on the hood etc, 2 of the towels will dry the car nicely. They have not been affected by washing and drying.
MICROPAK 16" x 27" Waffle Weave Micro Fiber Towel
I also bought like 40 of the smaller towels in various colors for like glass, wheels, interior etc. All are silk edged which is nice.
I'll look into those. I think I found the source for the Griot's towels here:
[media]http://www.theraggshop.com/Pages/fiberpage/THE_SHAGGY.JPG[/media] I usually load up on Griot's when they send out coupons, just got one for 15% of today but yeah they're a little high especially for re-packaging other suppliers products.
