I agree, I don't even use the same towel on the bottoms were all the road grime is and on the front were the bugs are as I do on the rest of the car, I use three separate towels/wash mitts every time let alone a brush at a car wash that has cleaned 50k pos nasty, muddy, rust buckets........ I know I'm crazy!

i just posted thread over in CAR CARE about how i met and spoke with SAL ZAINO today......
auto car wash is last thing on my mind now......
as for mitts....im not using any....i went to 5 stores today (pep boys, walmart,kmart,target,strauss) evry mitt is made overseas....
SAL ZAINO specifically told me not to wash with anything NOT made in USA...has to be 100 percent cotton....
So i bought large bath sized towels (100% cotto, made USA) and cut the borders off

NO way would i take a vert or a pickup with a tono(s?) cover thought anything like those
and NO way would i ever run through a car wash that uses the spinning brushes.
But i has been through a few touchless car washes. One in Riverton, WY the best ever!!!! and then the one in bonny lake, WA 2nd best ever!!!! and they work very well. I worry about the blowers more then anything(blowing off scoops and such). I just rush through them and hit the interstate

Thanks for the info. I really need to follow the recomendations since I drive a black Mustang Vert., Black Escalade SUV and a Black GSXR1000 motorcycle with lots of chrome work, Thanks for the info.

Found a place to buy 100% cotton Made in the USA white towels.The kind Zaino recommends. The web site is americanchairstore.com The towels are made by 1888 Mills.I bought the bath sheets $17.00 each.You have to be carefull buying towels some of them even have bamboo fiber in them, that aught to be really good for the paint.
