Default Anyone Use Viking Microfiber Spa Towels?

I'm ordering some Zaino for my WS6 and I read that I need good plush towels that are 100% cotton. Well I went to O'reilly's and saw some but they weren't plush at all, but very rough. Well I saw these Viking Microfiber Spa Towels that are super soft and I went on and got those.

Anyone ever use these? Will they be fine for just wiping off the polish's without scratching?

Do a test spot with them and don't press hard.

Do the CD test. Get a CD unscratched on the recording side (preferably a blank) and do a few passes with the microfiber towel against it.

I did. First time I went around a few times softly and no scratches just cleaned it nicely. Moderate pressure still nothing. Then I pressed down really hard and then I saw some scratches appear.

Good or bad?

When applying Zaino, you shouldn't really be using pressure anyway. You wouldn't work Zaino sealants into the paint as you might a compound or polish.

You're good if you're giving it light/no pressure with no scratches.

For good m/f towels try a google search for "pak shak" in Hawai, my favs.
