Any paper towel is abrasive some are much less abrasive than others but they are all abrasive. I would not rub it with a paper towel unless I tested it some where else.

Hmmm. I guess there is some truth to that. Paper towels just feel softer when wet. Guess I was lucky with the strom. Next time an old t-shirt will be pressed into service.

The best thing I have found is micro fiber towels they sell at Sams. I use them in my glasses if that tells you anything. They don't leave lint either. Terry cloth leaves lint. If you really worried about scratches never use anything thing that isn't clean. Some people only use new towels. I think this is a bit extreme. I keep my cleaning towels separate. I wash them separate and store clean ones away from dirt and grit. If I'm using a towel to wipe down my bike I work from soft to hard and greasy. Plastic and paint are soft chrome is hard. If I lay a towel down for any reason its dirty and can only be used for the nasty stuff.
