Microfiber Chamois

[Macgirl]

I`ve been eyeing this towel for some time and just wondered if anyone has any comments about it? It looks rather thin and I wonder if it is easy to handle when drying, plus does it dry as good or better than a waffle-weave towel? I`ve never used a towel that is 100% polyamide but isn`t it supposed to be more absorbant than the polyester/polyamide blends? Any opinions are greatly appreciated.

The microfiber chamois has virtually no nap/pile and requires a different handling techinique than a waffle weave. I would say that the MF chamois is more akin to a P21S drying towel or The Absorber in drying ability. However, one major difference is that the MF chamois could alternatively be used as a final buffing towel (that last wipe down after all residues have already been removed). To use it in this manner, wash the MF chamois several times. It will soften up a little more after each wash until it becomes quite supple.

For drying purposes alone, people who like the P21S drying towel or The Absorber better than MF waffle weaves will probably enjoy using a MF chamois. For people who prefer waffle weaves, the MF chamois will probably not be to your liking.
