Microfiber is man made product consists of 80% polyester and 20% polyamide . Mainly invented for clothing but later introduced for cleaning as its having more water absorbing ability than cotton and due to very soft thread comparitivly safe for painted surfaces.
Microfiber used in textile . Its threads ends closed so also give water repellency while for cleaning purpose thread ends open or u can say shaved so absorb water. Microfiber threads shaving machine quite expencive thats reason ordinary microfibers dont have good water absorption.
Chamois is a splited very thin inner layer of real leather , vegetable tanned in very soft nappa tanning and before invention of microfiber technology it was considered to be very safe option for car painted surface but good quality chamois quite expencive. Its also having very good water absorption qualities. Later invention of microfiber technology obsolete expencive chamois.
Microfiber chamois is man made product and notreal leather and in my view microbiber cloth far better and safe option than microfiber chamois.
