    trying a new `big blue` waffle weave MF drying towel. it left some pretty mean streaks. had to go over and over the sections and would still leave water streaks !!??



    any trick to these...



    yeah, it could absorb lots of water,,but even when rung out real well, it left the streaks...especially on the windows.



    do i have to go back to THE ABSORBER??



    i`m guessing they might need to be washed 1st ?? :think:

    Sometimes it can help to mist the towel first. If they`re completely dry, they might not conform to the surface very well. I don`t have any Big Blue WWs though.

    a good way to reduce drying is to sheet off as much water with just the hose...

    Steck, to be quite honest with you we tried many towels before picking the "Dehydrator" and it was by far one of the best for no streaking. What I do is fold it up about 3 layers and slowly wipe in one direction. Keep it flat, do not wad it up. Try not to use a back-forth motion. I use it bone dry and find it works best like that. Give that a try and if you are unhappy with it still let me know. I will refund the purchase amount and you can use it to check oil!

    Washing any MF towel prior to use is important.
