I've had the best luck with the Viking 100% cotton wash mitt. I got mine from www.partsamerica.com

I also use a sheepskin mitt. Cotton mitts are fine too. What causes marks/scratches is usually the technique.

Not so much the technique but the material. Most wash mitts are polyester which can scratch.
