Default Microfiber Towels
Hi Fellas,

Apologies if this is posted in the incorrect area; if so, please direct me to the correct discussion thread. Was wondering what kind of microfiber towels you guys use to wipe down your 992. Before I purchase some random ones from Amazon, figured i'd ask the experts. Trying to use some towels for dust and removal of finger prints. Really appreciate it! Thanks in advance.

Costco and Amazon both sell perfectly acceptable ones. If it touches the ground, throw the towel away.


You didn't mention it, but be sure to use detailer spray.

Oh wow. That's pretty serious. I'll definitely make sure I don't drop them on the ground! Detailed spray for when cleaning finger prints? Or anytime I use the microfiber cloth on the car?

Always use a detailer spray whenever a cloth touches the car. Lots of good information and videos over at Autogeek website. Take a look in your spare time.
