What Cloth To Use

When I polish by hand, what cloth should I use. I have be using yellow dusters but they don't seem to work too well.

are you talking about applying or taking off the polish?

huh? a duster? how does that work? shouldn't you be using a micro-fiber towel...?

when you want to remove it, you wash it, then clay bay it, which will strip the wax+polish+contaminants

Thanks Blackjack. Sorry about the duster thing. What can you expect from a "Bloody Foreigner" like me?
