Polishing cloths

[Ian]

Just wondered what everyone used for the final buff after grouting. Do you use a specific type of cloth or just an old t-shirt? I've been using microfibre cloths recently and find them to be very effective, also lint free car polishing cloths do a top job.

i used to use old clothes , but with my wash-boy and three washes don't bother now !.........

 

[Diggy]

Cotton cloth ( old T shirts etc ) but I have a towel which er indoors gave me, which i've cut into 4 bits which is the best bit of polisher I've had for ages , just keep it washed and it's perfect.

I have used dusters before but, they can leave yellow residue, not a good look on white grout lol!

Blue paper rolls.. 160mtr length and in a pack of 6 at a time.. used for buffing sealers as well .

same as dave uses, the blue tissue on big rolls, though i use kitchen roll sometimes too. i find it collects the residue in the tissue and makes less dust.
