My current synthetic chamois tends to leave streaks, making me go over the area again. And I'll still have streaks sometimes.

The guy at ProperAutoCare said these things will do a car in nothing flat, with no streaks.

Not cheap, yeah but if they work as advertised, the time it'll save me is worth it.


Between this and a leaf blower, I'm set.

Yeah, I never liked chamois too much. Real or synthetic, they always seemed to remove the wax/polish faster than just terry towel drying.

I think I'll pick up a set for spring & a mini for the bike....vroooommm...

The Big Blue Drying Towels are worth every cent. Been using mine after my leaf blower for almost 3 years, and I will never look back to towels, chammies, etc. I've spent too much $$$ at that site, but I love their stuff, its all great.

Naw... Blackfire does it well and in some ways better than Zaino.

There are a lot of people over at autopia.org that like BF. And there are your Zaino-lowers too... But reading the pron and cons of each, I'm sticking with what I know.
