Polishing Cloths
« on: September 24, 2006, 04:32:42 AM »
What does everyone use here? Have you found a cloth that really doesn't do a good job with polishes?

I am using a 1/2hp Vertex Mold spinner to polish now and I usually use cotton t-shirt material or cotton flannel.

I use paper towels for all but removing the final polish and use a cotton towel for that.  --  JohnP

Cotton T shirt for the polish and to get the final buffering a piece of old sweatshirt material I find is best.
Use the fluffy side and you can really buff up a great shine.

sweat shirt material after beginning the process with polish on a white scotchbrite pad ='s a mirror finish.
