Hey Hank..... your not a noob. To be honest use what ever you feel and what ever method that gets the job done in the quickest time. Dont forget the corners on your leaded 

Personally, I use scrim for outdoor work and microfibre for indoor work... that works for me.

scrims are not lame for detailing at all. They have been doing it for donkeys years and are still going strong. I have always used scrim, and probably always will. Get a couple of different cloths and try them.

Scrim all day long for detailing.

 Hi
 I agree microfibre has its place but i find it gets wet very quickly and is useless on glass once wet. i much prefer scrim for glass.

I also prefer heavy duty scrim it does take forever to break in but once there lasts for ages.
