Microfiber cloths are made with a synthetic fiber (usually polyamide, polyester, and polypropylene) that is extraordinarily thin – in fact, the threads are sometimes as thin as 1/100th of the diameter of human hair! These thin threads are then packed together to form a dense cloth with a high total surface area. The thinness of the threads work to pick up much smaller particulates than say, cotton or other synthetic fibers which makes it the best option for things like removing dust, fingerprint removal, and polishing furniture and other items of various materials.
