No. You want the towel you're using for a rinseless wash (or a waterless wash) to have a fairly deep pile, because it is that pile that will help the dirt away from the paint. A waffle-weave has virtually no pile, so any dirt it picks up just lays on the surface of the towel, almost certainly scratching the paint that it comes into further contact with.

yes, i was just giving you a visual example of what we were talkin in the thread.
These will also last indefinitely if taken care of for just washing... i believe you get what you pay for and if you divide the estimated number of years or uses you will get out of a towels they are pennies in the lager scheme of things.
you can PM me if you want other reccommendations
