Try these<---.
Good price, great, long lasting quality, washable and soft.

I would wash them about 10 times before using them to fuzz up the cotton.

They also selling clean, used rags that are way soft. I called them on this.

I prefer these to microfiber for applying wax.

I'd use a microfiber pad (and microfiber towels for buffing out) An old shirt will most likely make fine scratches.

Before using rejex, make sure to pre clean the paint so the wax will bond better to the surface. Zaino Show car polish LOK (Z-1) will be great for this.

With proper care, these will last you years depending on the intensity of use

I used a soft cloth for RejeX, just like applying wax. The cloth was not anything special, maybe an old skivvy T-shirt that had been through the washer with softner many times.
