well, my rag is interesting.......... it was an old kitchen apron of my grandmothers, she cut it up to use for dusting, and I grabed a piece of it, it works great, doesnt scratch, and can be easily cleaned. Its great using it, even though its about 50 years old

The only thing the Polishing Cloth can't do is scratch your surface. =)

Of course, if you're looking for paint removal - some chemicals may be required.

The only similar thing I've personally tried was the removal of day-old nail polish off of a paint panel. All it took was tap water and some moderate pressure, and the plush side of the polishing cloth had the nail polish off in moments.


I guarantee, you can't go wrong with microfiber.

For models, a single 16x16 Ultra-Plush polishing cloth will go a long, long way. It has different pile heights on each side, which means it'll be more versatile, and thus a better value for your application.

All of last night's orders have already been prepared for shipping and will be sent out today. Those of you in the continental U.S. can expect it by Thursday. To those in the Eastern Hemisphere, global shipping is always a crap shoot in terms of delivery date!

Thanks for the patronage, guys!

Re: Which cloth for polishing?

How do you clean a clothing when it's full of old paint? Do you put it in the washing machine? Or how do you clean it?

Snook,
the website (where you probably ordered it from) has a FAQ which gives you all the information on how to clean the product.
