Review on ๐Ÿงฝ Griot's Garage Extra-Large PFM Edgeless Drying Towel - 55596 by Mike Hernandez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best dryer I've ever used

HOW MUCH does this stuff cost? I have a dark car, almost black, and drying the car without water stains is an almost impossible task. If you rub it too hard with a drying cloth, you will end up with tiny scratches that are very noticeable. I've tried various less expensive towel dryers, leaf blowers, sprayed a wet car with diluted quick wax (it works, but it's many yards), whatever. I had heard of this before on the internet but for the price I couldn't justify it as I would probably need to buy more than one to completely rebuild my car. I finally bit the bullet. After using it I'm pretty sure it came from some kind of black magic. It works like I've never seen it before. On flat surfaces like the roof and hood, I just lay it flat, grab it, finish it and peel it off, and the towel soaks up most of the water at once. In hard-to-reach places, I simply wrapped my hand in a towel and gently dried it. Halfway through the car the towel feels wet and you think you probably need another one, but it still soaks up all the water. I was able to do the whole car very quickly without fear of water droplets drying into spots. If they are on my car, it's because I didn't wipe the spot. Then I dried the front of my wife's SUV, which had gotten a little spattered when she washed the car. It was almost at the limit of the towel's absorbency, but a midsize car and the front of an SUV isn't bad. As much as I hate paying that much for what is just a fancy towel, it was worth the money and when it wears out I will buy another. I hope they make a smaller one in the future to help with the little nooks and crannies.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Doubtful
