    Agreed. I only use them now for Rinseless washes. Too bad too because they are just so damn soft.

    I use the blue Rag Co towels you linked to actually clean the glass. For a final wipe down/buffing of the windows, I use blue Rag Co waffle weaves - although I wish they were 16 x 16 since they are a little big to clean the windshield down near the dashboard.

    I`m w Accumulator. I think all MF towels eventually do lint. When I see one is linting, I just demote it to a utility towel for engine cleaning, door jams, wheels etc. I given up fighting towels that lint. That just gives me an excuse to try another type of towel. I just bought a few DMT`s from Poorboys to test out although I haven`t used them yet. Both Dwayne and Steve assured me they don`t lint (w proper care). We shall see....

    If I could afford it - I would replace ALL my MF`s w the Griots PFM towels. Best MF ever made in my opinion.

    ShawnF350 kindly sent me some Towel Pro Glass towels 2 years ago:

    These things are great, absolutely no lint, bought some more, it`s flat woven, so there is no lint on the towel, so nothing to come off.

    Yeah, I have a few different ones and that`s my experience too (though I pretty much always finish up with the GG Polypropylene Wipes).

    I still prefer cotton terry (i.e., a "regular high-quality cotton towel") for the initial passes on exterior glass, especially in the winter when I`m cleaning off salt/etc. every day. Never use `em on the interior glass surfaces as the cotton lint sticks too tenaciously to the window seals/etc.
