QD with MF or cotton?

Hey everyone, my dust problem seems to have gone away after I used cotton towels rather than the MF for spreading and removing the Platinum Gloss Enhancer.

Humor me a little. The next time you QD, try a cotton towel in an area, then a MF towel in an area. Give me/us your impressions of the two methods. The cotton seems to work better for me for QD'ing. Wax, sealant, or polish removal, the MF works fine. For QD'ing, I'm not quite sold on them yet.
 
Charles,

Don't have to humor you, as I still use cotton to QD. I also like the fact that it doesn't soak up as much QD as the MF's. Plus the fact that I have a whole bunch of nice cotton towels I bought for detailing that I need to keep using, or the wife will start................. you know! :D
 
I use MF to QD. The cotton will scratch easier than a good MF. Because the MFs pickup so well, I have found they make more static that causes dust to stick to the paint easier. I'm not sure how to fix that... :confused:

CompleteLook,

My Cannon Charisma Select towels won't scratch the paint. They do better on the CD test than any MF I have, and work great on paint. However, I do like the MF's for removing other products.

Anyhow, as for the MF's and static, do you hand wash and air dry them? I found that putting MF's in the dryer seems to create more static in them.
 
Boss ..I use the dryer with out static, but first you must wipe down the inside of the dryer with a cleaner, i like clorex wipes, it removes any residue from dryer sheets and I get no static....now if I forget to wipe it..yes there is static and I have to take each one and shake it out. But I never get dust either way:confused:
