You'll be saying wow everytime you use this towel. Olympic divers use it as a towel.

That's not been my experience using it for the last seven years. The silicone blade is remarkably soft. I could see how it could happen with a conventional squeegee.

I use microfiber towels - buy a 30 pack or whatever at Costco and dedicate 3-4 of them to drying only. Drag them across the car then wring out. Finish with another dry one. If you want to be really anal retentive use different ones for the top and bottom halves of the car (the bottom has much more dirt and grit from the road generally).

thanks for all the recommendations. i bought a waffle micro something or other towel for about $12 and it did the trick very well. dried the whole car without having to switch towels.

When I worked for a car dealership, I had at my disposal a TON of microfiber cloths.

Pretty much used them for everything (and washed them hot with some industrial detergent)
