Best Microfiber for detailing?

Sorry, I know I'm probably beating a dead horse with this question but I couldn't find too many good results when I did a search.

What have you guys found to be the best microfiber towels to use when detailing? One's that do not create additional swirls and scratches and where can I order some?

Thanks in advance

Exactly. You will get the best results with this combo. After the final wax, I use a spray shine that seals the wax and makes it super easy to clean and dirt really does wipe off.Preferably Micro fiber is not my thing but others swear by it

If your careful any microfiber works great, I use microfiber towels from Wal-Mart and I've never introduced new swirls into the paint with them. Make sure you tear the tags off and I always fold the edges in so I don't have to worry about the edges contacting the paint. Wal-Mart also sells edge less microfibers but Im not shelling out the extra $$$ when I can just fold the edges in myself lol. If you want to go the extra mile (like I said though its not needed) you can buy the super soft 3M microfibers which are quite a bit more $$$ than others but they are a very nice towel.
