Review on πŸ›€ Viking Car Care Waffle Weave Drying Towel - 7 sq ft, Royal Blue by Julio Diaz

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Efficient for drying vehicles but with hooks

This Viking waffle weave microfiber drying towel is a decent size, big enough to easily dry a freshly washed car or mid-sized SUV. If you're looking for a towel to dry off a large SUV, large van, or truck, this towel might do the trick, but you'll find it gets relatively damp as you walk since it's not the thickest microfiber. drying towel I have ever used. Although this towel is relatively thin, about 0.5 to 0.75 inches thick, it has a very nice waffle texture and is moderately soft. Unfortunately, this towel gets stuck quite often, so I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. When I first used this towel to dry my SUV, I rode down my car's panels relatively slowly to avoid hanging the towel around the corners of my car. While this prevented most issues, it also increased the time it took me to dry the car compared to other microfiber dryer sheets. The second time I used this towel, I dried the car like I did with other towels and noticed that the towel got tangled on the car more often. During the drying time, the towel got stuck 10 times, mainly on the corners of the car panels: the corners of the hood, doors and trunk. Most of the snags were minor and didn't affect the product, but I did encounter a large snag that pulled about 2 inches of fiber from the towel. I had no trouble washing this towel. I usually wash my towel in hot water with mild detergent and it cleans the towel enough. I always air dry my microfiber towels and use a very low dryer when needed. This towel absorbs quite a bit of water, so after washing it takes quite a long time to dry (2-3 days in my experience). Overall very good value for money but be aware. that if you use it frequently, you will probably replace it after a short time due to the many hooks. 4/5 stars.

Pros
  • Lint-free and safe for clear coat
Cons
  • Almost never
