I'm guessing you mean something like this though?

Yes, something like the Nisbet. The problem with kitchen towels is its not as strong, its rougher in texture, and sometimes it comes with lint. I found a roll of automotive paper towel (feels almost more like a cloth) in the garage, not sure what brand or where it came from, its brilliant but I'm about to run out.

Its great for getting rid of grime without leaving traces of the paper towel. Its also softer, I use it to wipe the steering wheel. If I use anything else, its too rough and risk taking layers off the old steering wheel.

I managed to clean the weber grill with a couple of automotive paper towels this afternoon, worked a treat . If you use a kitchen power towel, it will disintegrate after a couple of strokes.
