Review on ๐Ÿš— Meguiar's X2000 Water Magnet Microfiber Drying Towel: Ultimate Absorbency for Effective Car Drying by Puggzy Wallin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Go to SKIM-Thin - keep looking.

Reject all those 5 star reviews - you are reading a text from someone who has tried many of them and is also a Meguiar fan - even a while ago and almost one of their detailing lessons uses only Meguiar products. My guess is that all of these rave reviews are half from users who haven't compared or compared to other cheap towels, and half from users who haven't come across the "waffle weave - microfiber" dryer towel before. The fact is this towel is very thin compared to what is available and should be around 6 inches wider in either direction. Maybe it's ok if you have a Mini Cooper, but even then I'm disappointed with the Meguiar quality on this one. There are far better ones out there, not to mention larger microfiber dryer sheets, and since dryer sheets last a long time, they last. worth the extra price for the quality and size I'm not saying a dryer sheet has to be "plush" to do the best job - I'm saying my two existing/remaining towels that survived a cut (sorry for the tearing removed from the labels long ago) work much better. One white and twice as thick as the Megiuar, and the other blue with deeper pockets and also thicker. - Maybe ChemGuys isn't sure. You've just never used a proper drying towel before, so in the long run do yourself a favor and keep looking. is a 19" x 39" Aquis Microfiber Waffle Hair Towel. It really is better than other car waffle towels, high quality woven and they don't fray. The 19x39 size is perfect, holds a lot more water (not just because of the size) and dries quickly. (Tip: Try cleaning your windows with a water blade first to remove excess water. While technically not the best clear coat idea, "water blades" are still used -- the problem is, you can't missed getting the stain off your car. and you later use a water spatula to remove the water (a silicon spatula can turn the dirty area to paint). Aquis makes towels in other sizes, so be careful. This, that I have found to work is 19 x 39 and has "Square" label (not rectangular) which you will need to cut the threads off of to remove. Cannot vouch for the thickness of their other sizes. These are Microfiber blow dry towels so see if your wife has them, just put them on Don't tell her why you want to experiment with them if you want to live.
