I know how to wipe the car down lol...I actually used two different triple soft towels, one for the initial wipe, and the other for buffing. It wasn't actually lint. The detail spray wasn't wiping off, but leaving a sticky residue behind and when I tried to wipe it off, remnants of the towel were left behind...not lint. Meaning, It wouldn't wipe the sticky spray off. It's really hard to explain (apparently lol)
