platano Reg'd: Jan 28, 2008 Tech Advisor	i recommend microfibers for everything: drying the car, removing wax if ur doing it by hand where an orbital is not avail, and when using the clay bar to remove the excess lubrication......microfibers are the shizzzzznick!!!

breakout831 Reg'd: Mar 11, 2008 Tech Advisor	when it comes to drying a vehicle..I'd recommend a chamois towel over microfiber drying towels. I actually use a drying towel called "the absorber" I will NEVER dry my car with anything else again.

Orin Reg'd: Dec 08, 2005	I've yet to use a microfiber designed just for drying, but I'll give it a shot.

Mayo Reg'd: Feb 14, 2007 *The Guru*	Yeah, for drying, a nice waffel weave microfiber works real well. Some weaves just work better than others, haha. "I have an idea!

oaguilar Reg'd: Feb 17, 2008 Oil Changer	There are different types of Microfiber towels. Make sure you're using the right one. They are like sand paper, they come in different grits. Usually green color means course. The Yellow color is Medium. And the Blue color is Fine. To dry the car I would use the green, buffing and waxing I would use the yellow or blue, if you use the green it won't give it the shine. They are great we used them at work all the time. Specially for finish products that are already painted. Used them on your wheels, they take off the brake dust like it was nothing.

Mayo Reg'd: Feb 14, 2007 *The Guru*	Hmm, I didn't think they were classified by color, haha. Ive got some different color microfibers that are the same weave. But I do agree that a different types of microfibers work differently. "I have an idea!

VIP_tC08 Reg'd: Dec 02, 2007 Godlike Advisor	Mircofiber Towels are awesome, i use it for everything, have to check out the Walmart ones though, i have been getting mine at auto parts stores, which we all know are a bit more expensive, and for using them on my wheels they work wonders '08 // Flint Mica // tC

Raven Reg'd: Apr 23, 2006 Master Mechanic	I got some of the blue ones from Autozone or Pepboys or something. They work great for wheels. The blue ones (or the weave of these ones) don't work as well for drying in My experience; they are kinda small and take about 10 of them to fully dry the car. They are awesome for smaller jobs though.

nick06tc Reg'd: May 20, 2006 Vehicle Designer	I love microfiber towels. I have tons of them. I never use the same one over, just keep buying new. I dont know if they are rated by color or what not, but I have found that yellow drys the best. blue takes forver to dry the car, have to keep ringing the water out of it.

bboydoc Reg'd: Jul 17, 2007 Detailer	microfiber towels are great. but the absorber drying towels are great too

k-woodtc08 Reg'd: Feb 01, 2008 Detailer	I use the water blade when Im drying my car then go over it with a micro fiber towel..jus the spots that stil have water run off..but yea the water blade and microfiber combination always makes my car look good..

BlazednSleepy Reg'd: Sep 30, 2007 Chief Mechanic	its all about the absorber. that dries the car really quick.

One "Absorber" and you can dry your car OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER, AND OVER again. It holds 50% more water then any towel on the market...and it's just like a chamois cloth.

oaguilar Reg'd: Feb 17, 2008 Oil Changer	"The Absorber" kicks a&&, must have item, along with the Microfiber towels

HANSome Reg'd: Oct 28, 2007 Tech Advisor	yeah I use The Absorber too! its probably the best towel I've ever used for my car. PEANUT BUTTA & JELLY TIME!

xcessivenoize Reg'd: Apr 15, 2008 Master Mechanic	hell i just jump on the freeway doing 80-90 and in about 2 min. its dry, minus some dips from the hatch, which i get with a micro fiber, its faster, easier, and more fun

I actually use a drying towel called "the absorber" I will NEVER dry my car with anything else again. i definitely agree i use chamois to dry. but now that you mentioned the absorber and after seeing other comments on that...I think i wanna try it out! since i think i get streaks because it doesnt try properly ><. the microfiber towels from walmart works just as well as the pepboys or autozone ones. it's cheaper too so if you like to use new ones all the time take that extra money and get more at walmart . lol i tried drying with the blue one and omg it was horrible. left so many streaks afterwards -_-. it was just an experiment though
