Anyone got this drying towel?

[Jordi17]

I'm after a new drying towel as I'm sure that my megs waffle one is causing scratches/swirls etc. So I see this one and wondered if anyone has it, and whether it is any good?

I've got the very similar yellow version and it seems good enough tbh.

If there's a better one available I'd go for it though, because it always annoys me having to wipe over a lot of times and makes me wish I'd forked out for a more expensive one!

 

[Jordi17]

Wonder if this is any good then?

My current one is very rough, not sure if that makes any difference but cant be doing any good for the paintwork?

The fluffy ones are better.

I've got the Chemical Guys Wooly Mammoth

It's pretty expensive, but it's huge!

Keep your waffle towels for cleaning the glass though, they do a better job than a usual microfibre i find.

yh i have the same one it is big, havent used it yet tho

Yes, have 2, they are faking awesome.

Yes I have one, never really rated it tbh.

I use a dodo juice SN big white fluffy towel. 10x better but 4 times the price. Still as good as new after 1&1/2 years.

They're pants tbh. I got rid of mine not long after I bought it. They are the cheapest on the market for a reason. Waffle weave shouldn't used to dry paintwork imo, wa to rough from my experience.

Wooly Mammoth or the uber drying towel are the only 2 i'd consider these days for really safe drying.

 

[Jordi17]

what are pants, the ones I linked or the megs waffle one?

Reviews on the ones i've linked pls

 

[aucky]

(I think its the one I've got) and I really rate them.
Great for dab-drying.

 

[Jordi17]

the yellow uber one or the blue one?

 

[aucky]

Blue i4d

 

[clioLife]

without doubt the best drying towel i've come across is Sonus der wunder's

Or Poorboys DMT - just google that one

The blue i4d is just a generic import, although it is ok..

I thought it was absolutely tragic. I use it for wheels now lol.

I really don't like waffle weave drying towels on paintwork. They seem super harsh, there is zero pile on them hence causing damage.

It's estimate drying causes in some cases more damage than washing. Not a problem if you're polishing afterwards.

 

[Jordi17]

Do you rate the Uber yellow one or the blue one i've linked. my paintwork has been scratched to fcuk by something, and i put it down to the drying towel as its very rough

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

Sounds daft but asda do huge drying towels for £2 , I had used an i4d one before but the asda one had an extremely deep pile and is great to use.

I use this and love it. http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/pb-luxury-drying-towel-cat5.html

Der Wunders were demoted to arches after one wash. They should only be used for pat drying after sheeting - any movement in the drying process and you'll cause marring.

Go with the options Gally has mentioned. No more reviews necessary.

I have the blue i4d one I use it to pat dry I then go over it with this:-

The Uber one is fantastic, feel like a super soft bath towel tbh.

Great towel if a tad on the small side mate.

 

[Alastair.]

Dont know what people are on about tbh, the i4d blue towel is megga soft and holds loads of water, what more do you want for £6.95?

Opinions chap. And I'd rather spend £12 on a towel that doesn't mark my paint. All personal preferences.

Perfect for me as I don't like them too big. I can imagine myself dragging the mammoth one on the floor lol.

 

[clioLife]

Arh ok then maybe I need to invest in a Chemical Guys Wooly Mammoth Drying Towel and get rid of the waffle weave!

Lols. They aren't too big. I love the towel feel to the PB one.

Definitely.

 

[Jordi17]

Ye all i've ever used is the megs waffle one, because i buy them from halfords off the shelves. thought about washing it with some comfort to soften it up abit wonder if it would improve it

 

[Adamm.]

Lols. They aren't too big. I love the towel feel to the PB one.

Haha yeah. The PB microfibre cloths are immense too but they don't seem to be on the site any more
