    Product recommendation here, this towel is bloody brilliant!

    http://www.halfords.ie/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_11101_catalogId_15551_productId_199187_langId_-1_categoryId_212444#tab3

    I was staring at all the drying towels in Halfords yesterday and this one was marked at €19.99 and I was a bit apprehensive about dropping that much on a cloth, but i'm glad I did. If i've learned anything, its that you'll never get a bad Meguiars product; you get what you pay for.

    I've been using a standard green microfibre cloth up until now and its been taking me 15 tedious minutes to dry the car, whilst wringing it out about 20 times. I can now dry the car in five minutes flat and I only have to wring it out three times, and it doesn't smear or streak in the slightest.

    Get one! :)

    Great guys, i done an open day at spirit detailing, the guys were there showing there line and teaching us how to use the chemicals right, they stock some serious cleaning gear, lets just say i wont be buying in halfords again unless im seriously stuck, i even got to use a rotary polisher on a black bonnet to remove swirl marks, scary stuff :eek:

    The material in them starts to go kind of hard after a few weeks. Washing them doesn't help either. I've two of them that I only use on wheels now as they started to scratch the paint.

    I wouldn't recommend them.

    What I would recommend is the chemical guys miracle dryer, really soft and holds far more water then the meguiars one. No scratching with this one :)

    just make sure if your washing them do not use fabric softener, suposedly it deteriorates the fabric :confused:

    I used it before and it did the same, put some light scratches on my car.

    Now using this towel and couldn't recommend it enough. Never have to wring it out when drying the car and even after being washed its just as soft as when i got it.

    Sound like the name of a Monster is a 70's B movie.
