Join Date: Jul 2002 Posts: 196 | What towels do ya'll use for drying There is just something about my WW JT International towels that I'm not too crazy about. It can clean up the windshield and all 4 windows on my suv before the towel is *soft & good* for drying the car paint.
If not done prior, the towel doesn't really absorb the water on the paint, and I feel it *dragging* more on the paint.
Just curious to see what towels you like to use when drying. There's alot of PakShak towel fans out there.....I may try some of that or Autopia towels. Just finished polishing the car yesterday and I don't plan to wash the car using these WW I've got now. | |

I love it and I think that it would be a very very smary purchase. With proper care it will last years.

Now they're soft and absorbent right from the start; it really gave them a new lease on life. I thought the Micro-Restore would be a total waste of money, but I sure was wrong about that! The stuff works miracles for me and is well worth the expense (IMO, of course). | |

And here is a link to the store: Autopia Store Look under microfiber and washing & drying for the towels. I personally, like the Sonus Der Wunder towels. | |

I recently picked up one of the Microtek drying towels at Walmart for 6.50. It is very plush. I use it to finish up in the door jambs and on my wheels. | |
