Not really but I would advise against using a leather chamios, they are prone to pick up dirt and debris and can scratch the paint. The leather chamois also get very hard quickly when not in use, can mold and mildew, and can leave oily films on the surface. I would much rather dry with a www.dftowel.com or I have used The Absorber man made chamois for travel purposes as you can not beat it when traveling due to its storage tube and you can store it wet and it does not mildew or mold.

Don't use a "chamois" on your "Z"! A source besides dftowel.com would be pakshak.com. Look at the 25X36 "BigBlue or Waffle".
