Just as important as washing, is inspecting the towels. When you're doing rinseless and using your towels for all sorts of general purposes, the microfibers will do their job and pick up small rocks, Twigs, Embedded way down into the microfibers, that's the microfiber doing it's job. Before I ever take towels to a car, after their washed, I lay them out, and run my flat and Over them and invariably I pick up every time 2-3 pieces of debris that would've scratched the car. After washing, check them EVERY time.

He is certainly OCD. That comment is not meant to denigrate him at all. Just an observation. I'm just as OCD when it comes to LR rifle reloads, rifle cleaning, scope mounting, rebarreling, etc.

Another thing I've learned over the years is edgeless is best...believe it or not, the seams, edges, tags, can all potentially leave micro scratches on the surface.
