Oiling rags

Postby Vertigo » Fri Jul 31, 2009 2:00 pm

Just had some parts prepped and am about to oil the bare surfaces for short term storage. Whats the best rag type thing to use? Want to avoid scratching said surfaces :) Im assuming something in cotton?

Microfiber the only way to go, Supercheap sell them in the car cleaning section. Bunnings also have them as well.
