Not that I own every mircofiber towel ever made (although I do own quite a few, I'll post pictures really soon).

I think the the top 5 softest MF towels are:

1 Chinchillas
2 Adams double soft
3 Griot's green spray on car wash towels
4 AG's Super Soft Deluxe Blue Microfiber Towels with Rolled Edges
5 Cobra's Deluxe Jr. 600

I heard a lot about those Boarderless Blond towels so I'm waiting for Zaino to get them in stock.

What's your opinion???

If you can't wait for them go to the Duragloss site and buy a Plush Microfiber Polishing Cloth if you want to see what the material is like, the DG towel has a much different construction though.

Have you used the blue Griot's towels? How would you compare them to the green?

They looked the same to me other than color. I have the blue and really like them.

Without a doubt - Car Pro's BOA edgeless.

MF's 530 is an excellent towel. That and Autoality's purple towels (also Korean) are some of my favorites. Even so, the BOA is the towel I would reach for most.

Is the blue more for drying?

The blue and green are same MF just different colors.

The DG polishing cloth is very unique. It is folded over and stiched I guess? I like it for a final wipe. It is very soft and thick!

Yes, the actual MF material is very similar to the Zaino Blonde (but as you note the construction of the towel is not) yet very different than most MF towels. Another strange Zaino/DG coincidence. The only other MF product I have that has fibers like these two towels is the Bone wash sponge.

Oh, geez...just when I promised myself Metropolitan's edgeless would be it.

Damn it, you guys.

Personally, I buy different towels just to sample them. When it comes to usage, I try to keep it as simple as possible.

Interior/QD/Rinseless/Waterless - I like towels with long/thick naps; for trapping particles. AG's rolled edge is excellent for this. I switch between rolled edge & purple towels from Autoality.

Drying/buffing/waxing - Carpro's BOA. It's the softest & most luxurious in my inventory.

About glass - Just about any clean MF works for me. I have a set of waffle weaves, but often I grab which ever closest that's clean. Yeah, I'm being a little lazy here.

Wheels & door jams - Costco yellows.

Good to know. That's what I was thinking, but never knew for sure.

One very soft and nice towel that I never see mentioned is the MicroFiber Tech Korean 460 gsm. This towel is unusually soft and good for any paint use
