Thumbs up DI Microfiber Waffle Weave Drying Towel

I've been using chamois for years but I have to say this product is by far the best drying towel I have ever used. This product is one of my favorite car detailing purchases and I just wanted to share this with the rest of the local Z bethren. Check out the link...

this is the one i use for drying. I like dealing with local vendors as shipping is generally cheaper and faster.

Your right J - the shipping was more than I expected but Greg @ Detailed Image was a real pleasure to deal with. He's very knowledgable and responded to all questions my very quickly. He also had a product that was not offered on the site that you posted. It's the Lake Country Ulti-Mit - another great product for washing your car.

I tried some synthetic towels and they just never dried like a real sheep skin chamois does. My chamois will dry streak free in one pass.. How does this towel work? Do you wring it out like a chamois and dry or whats the benefit?

This towel is extremely absorbant. I was able to dry my whole car without having to wring it out.

yea, i use two towels and these are massive. if you sheet your water away first it shouldn't be a problem.

I don't wring out the towels, just hang dry them after you're done. It's a matter of preference i think when it comes to your drying method.

I was just ordering one to try it out and shipping to Canada for a $17.99 towel was $30... Too bad I really wanted one, but I just can't swallow 30 bux shipping. It's not a money thing just a principal thing cause I know shipping that would be around 6-10bux though USPS...

+1 sheeting and waffle weave I'll have it dry in a few minutes without having to wring it out.
