grab a new towel? i use like 30 for a rinseless or waterless not only am i crazy its just plain easier
Also I use 600GSM green plush towels, nice to have the 8 sides of one panel.
For rinseless washes i use dual plush 500gsm towels
Back to the full-time grind.

I also will use a lot of towels, if your gonna do this method just use 4 sides. By the time you use 8 sides your towel won't have enough solution, I also use dedicated towels for the lower and rear sections of the car. Also it's a good idea to inspect your towels when done as the thicker towels can hold small pieces of stone,glass,tar and whatever else before throwing the towels in wash machine

Like the supreme 530's myself. Always pre treat the car by spraying a good layer of diluted Wolfgang Uber Rinseless wash.
Use the 4 plush sides on the paint and the short nap side for glass. 12 towels per wash is about right.
Supreme 530 Microfiber Towel 12 Pack

All great advice. I plan on buying a bunch just for rinselss washes so I'm not worried about using 10/12 or even more per wash. They will not be re entering the bucket once they touch a panel.
I may even pick up Optimums big red sponge too but still on the fence. I haven't used a sponge in years lol.

The eagle edgeless have been my preferred towel, followed by the shine and buff blue/grey towels. I have the gold plush jr's and supreme 530's too, but I find myself reaching for the other two first.

I use a couple types for rinseless. First are 600 gsm dual plus. The ones I use are green, and very similar to the grey chinchillas. I use about 10-12 for a normal wash. The other ones I use are navy blue 800 gsm German towels which are my favorite for rinseless, but aren't sold here.

The GSM number I noticed isn't described on most sites. And on AG only a few towels are listed with GSM numbers.

Eagle Edgeless here.
I don't see a need for a hemmed towel anywhere in detailing.
the edges come in handy.
