Default washing with...?

Just wondering on what type of cloth to use to wash. Everyone says 100% cotton, but this is a given. The ones at the local store seem rough, and I feel could lead to some serious swirling. Any comments on using a cloth babies diaper? I think if its good enough for a babies *** then its good enough for my babies ***. Any/all comments will be appreciated..

You can buy a really good 100% cotton wash mit (the kind you put your hand in so there is no chance of dropping it) at NAPA stores, the wash mit is the NAPA brand name and is about 5 bucks.

You don't have to worry about a piece of gritty dirt being wiped across your babies butt and scratching it (if so, change the poor tyke's diet!). The diapers don't have any depth, so any foreign object is going to be pressed against the paint. With a big, loopy terrycloth towel, you'll have a "shock absorber" to protect your finish from any trapped dirt.

I have heard from customers who didn't believe this, and they used t-shirts, diapers and other tightly-woven cloths. Switching them to loopy terrycloth made believers out of all of them. You CAN see the difference (especially with your polishing cloths).

Kevin Overall is the TN Zaino Distributor.

He also sells great towels, Fieldcrest Charismas that he trims the edgings, cuts to requested size and serges?? the edges with cotton thread. I've bought a bunch of them from him.
