Thanks for the positive feedback, guys

I highly recommend ONR. I have been using it for the last 3 years and have yet to use a hose on the Z which, as anyone who has seen my car, is 100% swirl free and looks not difference than when I drove it home from the dealer last July. The key to avoiding any marring is to work in small sections, use a good wash media, rinse your wash media to remove the dirt/debris it just picked up after each section, and using a safe drying method.

Cobra MF has had some major quality control issues as of late unfortunately, I was a fan but they have taken a hit. Check out Pakshak, Chemical Guys and Detailer's Domain as their MF offerings are higher quality for less money.

^^ could be, can't say I know too much about their manufacturing processes. All I know is my new MF wash mitt and drying towel seem to be high quality and are the softest things I've ever felt. But I'm sure there are other quality brands out there.

I agree about Chemical Guys towels, i have a few Cobra towels and a guzzler that were included in detailing product packages. ONR is very good, highly recommended.
