Microfiber (micro fibre):
Micro fibre is not a fabric, it is a yarn, spun into thread, which is used to weave or knit fabric. The most common micro fibres weave is polyester; called Microfiber and will indeed scratch the surface of your car if you aren't careful. You should, as a rule, avoid any cloth material that is not 100% natural.
Stay away from polyester, rayon, nylon, and nylon by-products. By definition, (very small; involving minute quantities or variations) micro fibres are ultra-fine yarns made from various sources. They can be polyester, nylon, or a natural material such as cellulose. Micro fibres are two times finer than silk and nearly one hundred times finer than human hair.
