yup...they don't carry the lubricity that rinseless/ONR does...hence the microfiber can scratch easier. FOR SPOT CLEANING, rinseless/waterless solutions are better.

I would be happy to help with a set of Carbotech 1521's to cure your dust issue.

Hello Glen,
You may have forgotten me. I emailed you yesterday and haven't seen a response. I'm guessing your are probably busy.
Send me info when you can.

Thanks,
Mark

Timely advice as I had a couple nice presents to greet me on my hood leaving work today. Spray bottle with ONR did the trick.
