Funny you should ask, the Benz has a lot of water holding areas that like to drip after washing...in fact I use an electric leaf blower to pre-dry it and the brakes...I still use microfiber towels to finish drying though, even if you don't have a great layer of wax and
dry gently they should never scratch your car. Terry cloth will scratch, don't use it. I have about 15 large microfiber towels and keep them clean. When you wash them use a clear/free liquid detergent so that you don't leave a film on the car when drying.
