Large Car Drying Towel

Used for the first time today and I’m impressed by the amount of water this picks up without leaving any visible streaks, didn’t even have to clean my windscreen etc which is a first. Saves a lot of time faffing about with multiple cloths as you just need the one on a medium sized car, nice quality and quite chunky, wash in the machine on a quick wash with some non bio, put out on a rack to dry (tumble drying damages the fibres apparently). Just about to order a second one as a spare.

I bought one of these to dry down my sports car after washing and final rinse to stop water marks. It works really well for this. It also has a non-microfibre side that is a little rougher, this is useful for scrubbing off those small stains such as insects marks you always spot at the end of washing. It also seems to be just the right size; big enough to wipe a large area at once but not so big it becomes unwieldy. If you get them very wet they are also easy to wring out and use again. It worked so well I bought another two of these towels. We also find they are great for drying the car after rain. We're also using them on the house windows now too. And last we use them as travel towels, they pack down well and dry more than a standard towel. We're using them all the time now. The quality is good, my first towel I have used over 20 times now and no issues. They go in the washing machine with problem or shrinking. They are a fairly decent price. I'm now going to buy another 3 of these.

I bought the items knowing that the microfibres were on one side only so wasn't surprised as some reviewers appear to have been. The quality is good, no loss of fibre when used and good absorption properties. The size and thickness for the task was just right; drying down muddied dogs after washing them - larger towels would cover more of the dogs' bodies but would also drape more onto the floor when drying lower areas, whereas these towels allow me to control the 'draping' more easily resulting in a wet towel rather than a wet & slightly soiled towel. So far so good but time will tell if the towels remain intact and effective after multiple use & drying cycles. Worth the money so far! (1 star removed only because the towels would be unquestionably unimprovable if double-sided).

I would consider myself a DIY car detailer. I probably clean my car more than most and spend more money on cleaning products than most. I've been using a chamois leather for 30 years, albeit in recent years being an Autoglym synthetic chamois, which works really well but does need squeezing out pretty much every panel of the car you dry. I keep seeing these large microfibre cloths being used by detailers so thought i'd give one a go. Honestly, I was slightly underwhelmed when I opened the packet, its pretty big but the fibres are only on one side with the other side being basically smooth, plus it all looks a little bit see-through(!). BUT WOW! You just pull this across a big panel like a bonnet or roof and it just hoovers up the water in a single pass, not only that but I did the whole car (and its a big car) without needing to squeeze it out once. It gets heavy with the water of course, but just holds all of it. Produces a lovely streak free finish in a fraction of the time a chamois would with far less wiping which can potentially damage the paintwork. Genuine game changer for drying the car. All the old cloths have been put away. All for under a tenner too, total no-brainer. Get one.

Great size,value for money.Makes easy work of cleaning the car. The item is as good as advertised

Nice and big and good quality.

Great absorbency, no streaks. This cuts drying time in half. Thickness is good - with what i use for windows on one side and plush on the other. Does the job perfectly!

Didn’t work as well as expected sadly
