You need to decide if you are willing to pay $$$ for microfiber that doesn't scratch your paint. Costco and Sam's Club towels WILL scratch. Been there done that. They are great for cleaning other household stuff but I won't even punish my door jambs with them. Case in point, I used a "Proforce" towel from Sam's to wipe my dash down and went over the stereo face (The clear plastic) a few times with it. The next day, when the sunlight hit it I broke into a cold sweat when I saw the horizontal scratches that I put there with that towel. I'll be able to restore it with some PlastX polish but geez, that is ridiculous
You are a lighthouse of reason in a storm of cluelessness. You like I have learned from experience, the best teacher of all. Not everyone has been unplugged yet so their bliss although blind, is understandable.
