geneh-I buy them new and use them for washing the cars, laundering them after each use. When I think they are "used" enough, I graduate them to polishing/buffing duty. I think they are softer than toweling . BTW, I have also read on other car care sites that you should not use fabric softener (liquid or sheets) with your auto care cloths. The residue will streak the car's finish.

Dear Geneh: I use only terry cloth. It is my understanding that the nap on the terry cloth "lifts up" what ever it is you are wiping off and thus helps in avoiding swirls. If you are going to use diapers and the like better make sure there is nothing on the surface which could cause a scratch in the wax put on as they do not have the lifting action of terrycloth. JDN
