you got to get on the Autofiber and Rag company train.

Autofiber use code OG.

both those companies offer great towels and crush these prices even at 25% most of the time.

Just checked Rag Company out. Their lower GSM towels are defiantly a better buy then DI, once you get up in the GSM and ultra plush categories they even out though.

I will probably get a few to try out from them, thanks man.

Lots of acronyms flying around. Anyone recommend a drying towel that isn't super expensive? Thanks.

A good, big, microfiber waffle weave towel should do you good.

This is what I primarily use to dry my car.

http://www.detailedimage.com/DI-Microfiber-M13/Waffle-Weave-Drying-Towel-P100/36-x-24-S1/

Wash this with your other microfibers and air dry, I have had mine for over a year now and they still look and feel like they did after the first wash. An "equivalent" one from AutoZone or O'Reilys will run you a few bucks more. I'm sure there are cheaper ones out there, just gotta shop around. But this style of towel in general should be just fine.

To clear up the acronyms, DI is Detailed Image brand, and GSM is grams per square meter. It is used to describe the density or weight of a microfiber towel. The higher the number typically the more it can absorb and the softer it is.

Thanks. I'll snag that tonight. Nice to see them not gouge on shipping. $3.60 for this alone. What else do I need? hmmmm. :D

No problem man! I am sure you'll like it they work well and so as long as it is clean, it will not scratch. I try to wash my drying towels every 3-4 uses.

Another good thing to consider is a drying aid/lube, and depending on what paint protection system you use(wax, sealant, coating, etc.) can determine what drying aid you should use. Lots of options in that department.

I've just been using up my Megs NXT2.0. I'm not super anal about my paint, but I think my "The Absorber" is going on 15+ years now and needs to be retired. It's very "grabby" too whoch might not be the best for the finish. Something bigger that can hold more water would be nice. I have small 12x12 Chemical Guys MFs that I use but it takes a whole bunch to dry with and that's annoying.

This is what I've been using forever.

These are what I use for drying: https://www.theragcompany.com/dry-m...premium-korean-microfiber-waffle-weave-towel/

And I use their eagles to wash with.

With the 25% off coupon I'd recommend getting some ONR/UWW+ to have kicking around. I might pick up some reload for myself, since it comes so highly recommended.

I will probably be grabbing some towels from them, seem very nice.

Reload is great stuff, you won't regret it. Just shake the bottle up regularly when using it, it prevents the occasional streaking some experience. I have never had it streak on me though.
