Review on AmazonBasics Drying Chamois 2 Pack by Nolan White

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It's worth buying, but don't rush to throw away all your towels just yet.

I have used many different suedes over the years as a car enthusiast and have owned several different cars which I detail regularly. This seems to dry the surface fairly well, as long as it's wet or damp to begin with, or you've properly dampened the suede yourself (which you should). Pros: 1. Comes with two 26" x 17" suede containers and plastic storage bins/tubes to keep them clean. 2. Unlike towels, you can squeeze out all the water and use them again without having to wait for them 3. Lint free Used on many surfaces (not just in the car) 5. They come in a fairly compact tube so you can keep one in the car I actually keep one in my holdall It works surprisingly well to dry yourself and also after a bath or shower Cons: 1. The first few times the tube had a pretty noticeable odor I suspect it's just outgassing from the plastic it's made of 2. It is more difficult to polish items with it than with a microfiber cloth (my personal experience, others may have more success) 3. You must be very careful when cleaning the suede after using it clean.It holds small h dirt particles and impurities that can easily scratch your car's surface next use.

Pros
  • Price
