I usually use paper towels, which is fine, I would just like to try something else that I wouldn't have to throw away at each cleaning, mainly to make my environmental foot print smaller. It also needs to be safe though. Anyone have any suggestions? I was thinking something like those sham wow (?) rags or something similar. Any thoughts on this?
