How many microfiber towels does it take to coat a car?

@mike Would you recommend specific type of MF towels for each step in the process? In other words, would you use a different type of towel for the removing of polish than you would for the final wipe after coating application? I need to buy towels for both steps for a McKee's 37 paint, wheel and glass coating application I am going to do, and it appears that coating only requires a their cleaning polish prior to application, and doesn't need/benefit from a IPA treatment prior to application of the coating.

Oh my...I had no idea! Thanks for this information!

This is a great article to show a customer why it costs so much to coat their car. I use CarPro suede microfibers for coating removal and then throw them away because of the remaining coating chrystals that could put scratches into the next car I coat. That adds to the cost of coating a car. Towels are an expensive part of detailing. You can never have too many microfiber towels. I prefer to buy them by the case.
