i have some FR500s... and im always afraid to dry them after i wash them... washing them, i usually use a sham and whatever im using for a car clean at the time, is this bad?

I usually use waffle-weave microfiber for the body, and a wheel & Jamb towel for the nooks & crannies.

I try to keep my body towels separate from my towels for lower panels and wheels to avoid cross-contamination (as well as grime).

If I've done a quickie wash and haven't addressed the wheels very well, I'll use a less expensive (and tired) microfiber and some spray wax.

Yeah just use a cheapo microfiber from walmart or something. They have 24 packs of lower grade microfiber cloths for like $10.

I started using the "flooding" method and then drying whatever is left.
