- **Material Substrate:** Reusable circular-knitted high-pile regenerated cellulosic textile (Viscose / Wood Fiber).
- **Target Industries:** Automotive detailing studios, car care chemical brands, fleet maintenance shops, industrial degreasing.

## Executive Technical Summary
This field-test report addresses two chronic problems in vehicle maintenance:
1. **Windshield Vinyl Fog:** Plasticizers outgassing from dashboard vinyl create a stubborn greasy film. Synthetic polyester microfiber cloths smear this film due to lipophilic plastic-to-plastic attraction, causing night-driving rainbow glare. Knitted viscose utilizes hydrophilic surface energy to cleave plasticizers from glass using plain water alone, leaving a completely streak-free, zero-haze finish.
2. **Wheel Hub Brake Dust Sludge:** Semi-metallic brake dust particles are sharp, abrasive iron filings baked onto alloy wheels. Knitted high-pile viscose encapsulates particulates inside deep 3D plush loop cavities, preventing clear-coat swirl scratches. Under running warm water, 92%+ of black grease and iron filings release immediately without heavy degreasing chemicals.
