If you want to go with cotton I would highly recommend Royal Velvet, they are awesome, I haven`t had any problems with them yet and wash after wash they stay as soft as day 1.
I bought 5 of them from a defect outlet store, like the factory who makes them. I looked over all of them, being worried and all about my cars finish and I couldn`t find anything wrong with them, they were all the same size, all had perfect ends, none were ripped. They are probaly one inch too short or something I could notice.
I got 5 plush shipping charges for less than 60.00, you can`t beat that if your look for one really really good cotton towel.
Here`s the link for the outlet store:

P.S. I know what your saying about not wanting to use your good towels for that purpose but I got 45 squares, each is around 2 feet by 1 foot in size and like I said, for under 60.00 it`s not that much of an "expensive item" if you break it down to each section of towel. Heck, look the price of micro fiber, it`s only a by product of one material with another....
joed1228 - yes, I have 6 Royal Velvets and I like them alot. I use them and the Charismas for removing Zaino. I would prefer to save them for that purpose and use something else for removal of paint cleaner and or polish residue (after using the PC). I guess I could always use a few new towels...
My customer has a new 2011 White Jeep Grand Cherokee and wanted it detailed before the winter really sets in. The paint was in very good condition, so I was going to do a wash, clay, 1 step AIO, seal, and dress.
Here is the process:
Wash: ONR with 2BM
Clay: Blackfire Poly Clay with ONR as lube
Tires and Wheel Wells: Purple Power
Wheels: SCG Beyond Steel
Chrome: P21S Polishing Soap
Windows: Meguiar`s D120
Black Trim: 303 Aerospace Protectant
Tires Dressed: SCG Beyond Black
Wheels Sealed: DP Wheel Glaze
Paint Correction: Poorboys World PwS and a 5.5" Green LC Flat Pad w/ GG 6" RO
LSP: Collinite 845IW
Windows Polished: Poorboys World PwS
Sorry there are no dramatic before and afters as I stated the paint was in good condition.
On to the pics:
