Awesome drying towel!

I bought 2 of these about a month ago and finally got the time to try it out. It was amazing. I was able to do the whole car w/ one towel

I've tried all types of things for drying, from expensive 30$ bath towels, to the absorbers, etc. This thing is my new favorite

Yup, I use a waffleweave too. Just be careful washing it. They can't take much abuse from the washer/dryer.

yea, the instructions said actually not to wash it unless I must. And if I have to to not use dryer sheets, etc. Basically wash it alone.

All I use now to dry my car is my microfiber drying towel from griots. It works great.

The Big Blue has a good reputation, I'm going to order a few when I order the rest of my detailing stuff. The waffle weaves are by far the best drying towel there is. I've been trying to find the best solution too, these are it. I like this particular one b/c it's a decent size. I'm ordering some of the smaller normal weave ones from Eagle One for finishing towels.

I'm going to order some of these too:
