    chamois V microfiber

    Microfibre has been around a while now so I was wondering.

    Does anyone still use a chamois rather than microfibre? microfibre just seems to hold anything that sticks to it fluff, dirt etc.

    I use waffle weave drying towels. You're supposed to pat dry rather than wipe, so you need a few large ones to do a Volvo.

    Or one of these, and some QD to get it "activated" (i.e. sucking up the water)

    I stopped using chamois leather donkeys years ago.
    Used Microfibre for a very long time, but now I use these http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acata...owel-cat5.html

    It will dry the entire car without wringing out once! I don't use it on the wheels though, I just use microfibre cloths for those.
