help! fibers stuck on wheel arches

I used a micro fiber towel to buff off my back to black stuff on the wheel arches and door sill thing. on the bottom sections it is like sandpaper and a lot of fibers are now stuck to the plastic. How in the world do i get these off!!

+1, or packing tape or similar. You're probably going to want to pick up something lint-free for future use, as well.

yah, or remember to wash your MF towels before use. often times people take virgin MF and notice ' oh noez, all over my felt and canvas bits too).

or, man these waffle MF towels dont dry worth crap.

wash first, use second.

Yep same as everyone said but would add, use a product that doesn't wash off or degrade with water like Black Wow, and blast that arch with soap and water.
