I use the fake chamois "sham-wow", you can pick them up at any flea market or rv/boat shows for about $1.00 each, I've been using them for over 20 years. The first time they leave a little lint and then they're okay. For high spots I wrap it around a dust mop and get up under the awning, etc. They really do absorb and are very cheap. They will last about a year washing cars, not bad for a buck.

Just a tip... I find that by putting a few drops of dishwasher rinse agent in my final rinse water, the rig dries spot-and-streak free. I usually just need to dry the glass and mirrors.

Exactly!!
I just purchased the Walmart three pack and have not had a chance to see how they work. But, we're on a trip right now and have had a chance to wash the coach a couple of times and am also carrying a few of the yellow Costco ones. Yes, they must be WET prior to starting to dry the coach. As long as they're wet, wring them out as good as you can and start drying. They work very well in that status.
And you're right, they will not work as good as a genuine Chamois but, they're certainly cheaper and work good enough to not leave any spots.
