I only use 100% cotton towels made in the USA. I had problems finding quality microfiber. I have a black car with zero swirl marks. I use Zaino and its great, no waterspots even though it rained 8 straight days here. I have 6000 miles on the car since Jan 15 so I put some miles on it too.
I use 14 100% cotton washrags for washing (1) and drying (7 or 8 ). I just have 14 so I have enough. I also use a 100% cotton waffle towel from detailed image to do my initial drying (it is AWESOME) and the rethickulous towel (softest towel in the world IMO) from detailed image to do my final runover, more of a buffing than drying. You do need to wash them in hot water after every use (I use gain), no fabric softeners, and be ready to replace them when they stop being soft, but thats a while.
