I've found this Microfiber between household stuff at the lokal Mall.
for Pics look at :www.vileda.de
Now I'm counting on some back-up from Deckart,'couse I couldn't find on the entire Net an English related site.
First ,the MF is thin , never the less,it absorbs , and a CD-test showed it to be scratch-proof!!!.
I was addicted to chamois, but after my first use with the "new"MF I tossed the chamois straight out of sight:
My habbit is : after washing the car I hose it down: low pressure high volume ,thus dry-sheeting the car.
The waterdrops that remain could be removed with ONE ( 1!) pass with the MF,and that's what we are looking for : as little touching as possible.
My car is a large SUV and two MF's sized about a square foot each did the whole job.
Vileda claims millions microfibers for a better dust-dirt-water-pick-up,and it does:
In the garage I had a real dirty mirror above the sink:one pass with the damp MF and it was as clean as I should have used a glass-cleaner:xyxthumbs
Tryed the same with the front windshield and put a strong light on it,searching for streaks, no streaks!
They , Vileda , claim it can be washed at 95°C(203°F) ,that I haven't tested yet, but strong it is: I had torn in two several chamois (you know,damp means :wring 'till the cows come home...)
I couldn't rip the MF appart
:D

Not trying to sell anything , just a review
 
I used one of these to wipe the water off the car after washing. It did the job, but I prefer the Neatitems MF towels. Useful for wiping wheels and exhaust system and for quickly cleaning glass.

Just completed and delivered today(2-16-2011) a tastefully modded 997 Turbo with suspension, Neez Rennsport Wheels, and Tech Art steering wheel.
The car had about 26,000 miles so I know the owner is enjoying the car(As he should). Here is the initial condition before the wash/clay steps were carried out.

More awesome work! Since that car has the yellow Calipers I assume it has ceramic brakes correct? What do you clean the wheels with on cars with ceramic brakes? I have been told that any wheel cleaner not good for them?
 
Beautiful work again Bob. This is really becoming old hat for you....j/k
