They aren't like fluff that comes right off either, they are stuck to the car... So...
It is 100 degrees every day, but even after the sun goes down it doesn't seem to make a difference, they are still there.
Or, should I have washed them anyway? Could I be "using" them wrong?
I have yet to be happy with any of the towels I have tried, which is why I bought the blonde's... Now I am thinking about going to a higher end store like Macy's and buying the white 100% cotton expensive towels, cut the border and give them a try. I just want to find something that works, I will pay the higher price, but the blonde ones don't seem to work as well as I thought they would. They are very soft, but maybe they are only an issue on the black...
Sorry, any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!

I went to MACY's TOO, and bought their most expensive 100% (INDIAN MADE :( Towels). Very soft, but I dry my car with those only, and I use the blot method, where you just drop the towel on the paint and lift off. NO RUBBING. The BLONDES I use for wiping polish off , and the Zaino detailer. They have NOT caused any swirls or scratches. DON"T push down hard with any towel, you shouldn't need to wash those Blondes, I didn't and no problems.. Most of the time people put scatches or swirls in the paint by the actual wash from a dirty mit or they didn't wash the car the proper way...
