Default Oil filter stuck

I had iron pony do my oil last time and today when trying to loosen it I had no luck. I watch many videos from screw driver going through, different wrenches and special tools. I went back out and tried again with oil filter wrench. I tried enough that the filter Holder was just spinning around the filter. I seen a old tee shirt that I was wiping my hands with them something clicked! I lined, layed flat, the tee shirt with the filter Holder. I made the grip much tighter and came off nicely. It was on so well that I had to use a hammer and screw driver to disconnect the Holder from the filter once removed. Maybe this can help someone out there.
