I am wanting to buy microfiber cloths. I have done a search and find that not all microfiber cloths are the same. The job I currently want to do is to wipe a painted surface--remove dust-- and re-spray a gloss finish. Can you recommend a good quality make of microfiber cloth? Lots of microfiber cloths to choose from.

A tack cloth? Like this Starchem Water Based Tack Cloths - (10)
I have avoided micro fibre for this job as they aren’t necessary lint free. You could get linen/cotton lint free rags if you’re not looking for a tack cloth

I've been using this brand for years,....mainly on glass & stainless steel but their quality speaks for itself.

The most wasted of days is one without woodwork
+1 for tack clothes.
Microfiber and any other lint free clothe still kicks up particulates into the air.
So as your nice new finish dries, they settle straight back down onto it.

You want tack cloths really but I normaly do a preliminary wipe with a microfibre (any old cheapo one) then use a tack cloth. I buy 50 at a time from Morrells, works out way cheaper.
However, if you do want superior microfibre cloths then look for Korean made ones, car detail shops sell them.

By far the best I've used are the Exel cloths sold on Amazon..

Definitely a +1 for the Tac Cloths as mentioned above.
But if it's microfibre you are wanting then I've been using these from Costco. They are a bit cheaper in the warehouse if you have a membership. I use them for all sorts (house / car cleaning, buffing wax on wood), but what i have done recently is cut a 6" circle out of one and attach it to my ROS - boy does that buff up the wax.
