I understand the theory about the waffle MF towel for drying, but in reality, if that dirt particle gets on the raised portion, it can do the same damage.

A waffle weave just reduced the chance of something like that happening.

I use a synthetic chamois and they do a fine job, but nothing, not MF or real chamois or synthetic will get ALL the water. Once any material gets wet, and you have to start wringing it out, they ALL leave a trail of water beads, however tiny, and those can be seen later if not right away.

Best thing is to use a MF or synthetic chamois to get most of the water, and follow with a light buff from a soft dry cloth, cotton or MF. Keeping the cloth till the last buff means it will stay dry enough to absorb all the water for the entire job. I have used this method for some time now, and it is quick and works great.
