Re: [ST] For polishing



Back to the "Zaino" thing, they also recommend nothing but 100% cotton bath
size towels.  They like the bigger towels because of the greater surface
area.

I used to use the good old "Absorber" to dry my vehicles, but will never
again use anything except cotton towels when available.  I was stupid with
the bike at one point and used a paper towel to wipe some gas off and it
left little scratches that I will now have to take out.  Actually, with the
Zaino, another coat of polish and it should be fine.
