Which Polishing Cloths?

[Colin]

Which polishing cloths would everyone recommend?

Ive been looking at the Meguiars Terry Cloths. Are these any good?

Also when I apply polish/wax, and i wipe it off, its quite hard and there is lots of little specs than sort of "run" when you wipe over them. Do I get rid of these with a clay bar?

Thanks for your recommendations in advance!

Terry towels are best avoided - terry cotton can cause fine marring. Microfibre towels are the way to go, choose a short nap towel like our Super Thick n Plush Towel for shifting stiff residues, or our Deluxe Mega Towel for shifting more oily residues. You should never need to clay after polishing - what polish are you using to get these problems?

Thanks for the reply.

Im using Meguiars deep crystal polish and carnauba wax. Using random bits of rag from the garage like old t-shirts etc!

Ive always had these little spots of residue and don't know how to get rid of them.

You are meant to clay the car first mate to get rid of these marks then wax and polish after. You can buy a polish towel from halfords. The meguiras is generally good stuff.

Thats what i mean't clay bar it first.

I generally stick to Meguairs stuff because its available everywhere.

A decent towel and a quick spritz of a good quick detailing spray will shift stubborn spots of residues.
