CMA Big Blue Towel

Used the Big Blue Towel for the first time. Was very impressed. It's waffle texture really soaked up the water by just pulling it across the surface. I could do the whole car almost without wringing. It's very soft and I expect it to get better after after washing.

I place my big blue up there in my "top 5" car washing "things". I love it, it beats any other car drying product I have used.

I just got my first big blue, I am extremely impressed with it. I have yet to wring it, just throw it on the roof let it soak up some water then dry 95% of the car. I use a second microfibre towel for the other 5%,but I am going to get a 2nd big blue.

I went out and bought one today. I've heard so much about them that I finally decided to get one. I can't wait to see how it works out.

I bought my first Big Blue a couple months ago. Great product! IMHO, it puts the Absorber and P21S towel to shame. I only wish I had bought 2 and taken advantage of the lower discounted price.

The BBT definitely makes drying much easier than any synthetic chamois. Awesome pic there Brad!

Where can you buy these? (Looking for stores like autozone, etc.) If all else fails I'll just order one online.

I've purchased all of mine from CMA. They are by far, the finest drying towels I have ever used. I love 'em!

I use two, one to get most of the water, the other to finish off. After someone posted that a good way to clean interior windows was to use a damp microfiber followed by a dry microfiber, I tried using my two BBT to clean my windows after drying, and they do a fine job. Now I just clean the windows after drying and they are dandy after every wash with no extra towels or cleaners.

Great reviews...

i think i might have to buy one!

Currently I am using the absorber, and finish up with 1-2 small MF towels....works well.
