Selected User Reviews For Griot's Garage 55590 PFM Terry Weave Drying Towel, Grey
The Drying Towels' Lord! Before I begin my review, it is critical for those who are new to the car wash, such as myself, to understand the following: MICROFIBER FABRIC/TOWEL SHOULD ONLY BE WASHED WITH MICROFIBER FABRICS. Other than microfiber, do not combine with cotton, polyester, merino wool, or other fabrics. br>br>I was looking for a good drying microfiber cloth for my Tesla 3 and a friend recommended this to me because she uses it for hers. It's quite costly, but she insisted that it was well worth the money. And she was completely correct (she, too, is a snob when it comes to shopping). You don't even need to 'wipe' with a lot of force. Simply lay the towel flat on the car after it has been cleaned/washed, then grab the towel with the tip of your fingers and slide it off. That's literally all there is to it. For the first time in my life, I get to use the term "literally" in its true sense. There's no need for a second wipe; everything is absorbed in one swipe of the towel. My boyfriend and I were both completely taken aback. I then tried another 'best seller' drying towel from Amazon, which was less expensive, but it had no absorbency at all, as other reviewers had stated. Seriously, the money spent on this Griot's towel was well spent. I eventually went out and bought another one. Also, wash in hot water according to the package's instructions. 'Hot water,' to be precise. 'It's also critical that you AIR DRY your clothes. ' Only use other microfiber towels to wash them.
Because of the price, I was also hesitant to purchase it, but I'm glad I did. I used a Meguiers drying towel, which worked quite well. This, on the other hand, completely deflates the towel. I'm amazed at how much water this thing can absorb while still allowing the car to dry. I do recommend having a second polisher on hand to remove any water spots or streaks that may have been left behind. It doesn't leave a lot of people. There's no such thing as a perfect drying towel, but this one comes close. If you're on the fence about buying, just go ahead and do it. I promise you will not be sorry.
I'd always used chamois leathers and, more recently, small microfiber towels to dry my cars before purchasing this product. I had no idea such large super absorbent towels existed until now - Until I came across this one in a YouTube video about car detailing. It's easy to be put off by the price, especially when you can get 16 small microfiber towels for around $20, but don't be. This is a fantastic towel. Simply place it over a damp panel and watch it absorb the moisture. There will be no streaking, just nice dry paintwork with minimal effort, making the drying process of your car a lot easier. br>The only disadvantage of a towel this size is that it's easy to let it touch the ground while drying the side of the car if you're not paying attention, and if this happens, you'll need to stop and thoroughly wash the towel before using it again. As a result, buying two of them is probably a good idea. Great product, and I've switched from small microfiber towels to this thing, which is fantastic!.
Huge, heavy, and able to absorb a lot of water. After a single swipe, the vehicle is completely dry. There were no streaks and only a few strands of lint (if any) were left behind. Before allowing the towel to dry, you could probably dry two cars or small SUVs with it. I'm serious. It's not the softest microfiber, but I doubt you'd want that in a drying towel anyway. br>At nearly $40, it is, indeed, a bit pricey for what it is. But, since you're reading this review, I'm guessing you're already interested, so I'll just say it's well worth it. I haven't tried all of the other drying towels on the market; I simply saw this one and decided to go with it; however, I have no regrets. br>It's been washed and dried. dryer 6- I've done it seven times now (using the delicate setting on both machines) and there are no signs of fraying edges or loose stitching - It appears to be in good condition. br>If you're serious about auto detailing and need a great drying towel, this is the one to get. It's a bit pricey, but the time savings and convenience it provides are well worth it. This towel makes drying your car extremely simple and quick, especially if your car's paint is protected by wax or sealant.
This product was recommended to me by a YouTube detailing video. I was on the fence because, at almost $40 for a "towel," I thought it was a bit excessive; however, I recently purchased a new car, which helped, and I have been trying to provide the best care I can for as long as I can. I went ahead and bought it, and I'm not sorry. I'm so impressed with it that I'm going to buy a second towel just to have one on hand. Without wringing out the towel, I was able to completely dry my car. In most cases, simply gliding the towel across the car's surface will pick up every last drop to a near streak-free finish. Finish with no restrictions. I'm guessing some of it had something to do with the car's paint condition, but I was blown away. Drying the car is probably one of my least favorite chores, but it's a lot easier now that I have this towel. I've tried a lot of different products over the years and spent a lot of money on them. Many of these items are likely to have caused some damage to the paint. Yes, it's a bit pricey, but it's well worth it because it works.
The best microfiber towel that has ever been invented. I was skeptical because I had purchased so many expensive towels over the years, all of which were marketing gimmicks with no practical application, but this towel is unlike any other. Don't waste your money on a cheap towel; instead, invest in this one. I just ordered two more smaller ones for cleaning the wheels and door jambs in my home wash bay, and I'll be ordering two more larger drying towels for inventory. I'm very impressed, and Amazon Prime shipping makes it arrive faster than buying directly from Griots. With just one towel, I can completely dry my entire car. I tried wringing it out with my wringer, but it was difficult, so I hung the towel to air dry once I was finished.
