    ok....i ordered 2 of these suckers cause you get a discount for 2.....anyway...as some of you might have seen in the pic i posted...they are huge...6 square feet....the picture on CMA is a little deceiving in that...it makes it look like this thing has 2 darker blue borders...like the kind we all cut off(decorative like)...but when i got it i could see that it doesnt...it has 1 continuous darker blue border going around the edges...not on the towel...just where the sewed the threads together....so you can use all of it.....it must have been the way they folded it for the pics on CMA that makes it look that way........OK>>>>>>>>



    washed as we all do....then used the CWB on the windows....started with the bigblu as a chmois...draggin it across the paint(dont really like this but did it for you guys....to make my test better... )....it soaked everything up like a sponge....then i used it folded....like a regular MF with QDing....again...it just kept soaking everything up.....with 1 pass...im not kidding...i didnt go over anything twice with this badboy....i did the whole car..everything except for the absolute lower trim(to protect the MF)....and my friggin car was DRY!!!!!!!!and it could have taken more if i let it.....



    i am absolutely very impressed with this product.....and i am a diehard WaterBandit guy.....but i tell you.....no more....unless i start seeing swirls...or it falls apart....im staying with it....i ususally would use the CWB...waterbandit...and a few Mf`s(steve`s)....and i had to carry all this crap to where i wash the car....now i just need the BBT(new one for terms...big blu towel) to do over 90% of my car....the wheels and trim at the very bottom will be left for my older MF`s.....



    unless some of the probs i mentioned happen....this will be a standard item in all my future detailing regimens.....



    BTW....it has a waflle design very similar to the Waterbandit...very cute... the only con.........GET THOSE VIPER LABELS OFF of it before you ship it doods!! .



    here`s a pic next to one of Steve`s MF`s...which are still the best for QDing....i threw that one in for a bonus........

    Nice review FLONI. :up I am currently using the absorber, but was thinking up upgrading to a Water Bandit. Now maybe I give this a try.

    Nice review Floni,



    Can you tell us what if any benefit the waffle pattern has vs the plush MF like YoSteves? Is it waffle pattern on both sides? Thx Detailin` Bro.

    :p .......rad....good point dood...the waffle pattern is on both sides...these towels dont have an apparent"front/back" like all the others ive used(plush on 1 side and well...not on the other... )...also....ya know when u use a MF to dry right...even the good ones...like Steve`s...it gets to a point where its so saturated that it just pushes the water around....not soaking any up anymore...even if you wring it out.....but these bigboys.....the waffle design(im guessing) allows you to just keep going.....i didnt wring the towel out once...not at all...and it soaked up everything....it didnt push it around...i mean my car was dry where it passed over it....the questions i have are ...as always...durability in both...will it continue to soak up everything wash after wash.....and...will it keep its form and not go to pieces.....only time will tell...but its off to a great start....im anxious to see what others who are going to get it will say........because i didnt wring it out...and it wasnt saturated yet...after the whole car....amazing...i dont no what else to say:up ...............BTW....if i didnt have thos towel...i would have no problem going back to the waterbandit and steve`s Mf`s(x2)....but if i can have 1 big one...than it would be stupid to use 2 of steve`s...when i could save those for my paint with Qd etc...

    Thanks Floni,I ordered the BIG ONE from neatitems, it`s 24x46. It`s a plush style though, I`ll see how it works to dry the car off. I am hoping the extra size vs the CMA Big One will absorb as much as the waffle pattern. BTW, I have a small waffle pattern MF I got a while ago, it was supposed to be used for windows. It doesn`t drag on glass like the plush MF but it doesn`t absorb as well either. Again, this is a cheapy so I can`t compare it to your BIG KAHUNA MF
