What do you feel is the better drying tool?

1) Synthetic
2) Waffle Weave

I have used both...definitely wwmf.. tiny waterspots are not my friends!!

Bob · 08-09-2005, 11:58 AM

For a pro 7 day a week detailer a synthetic chamios such as the absober I think it will work better then your mf thing or old fashion terry cloth towels. Using the absober gives you the ability to squeeze all the water out. How many towels or these mf things do you have to use? I don't feel like carrying around 20 towels to dry a car.

mf towels will dry your car as well but i think they are more for the hobby detailer.

WW for me!

Absorber, But Patrick knows best in the detailing industry and he's been detailing long than me or so he says, so I'm ordering 20 WW to be just like him! Thanks Patrick!

I like the WW towels.....

Shine, let the pole speak for itself......You have one who shares your thoughts, so your not completely alone.
( I saw myself stooping to your level so have erased 4 lines of text) Let me taley up the votes for you real quick:
Synthetic: 2 (And I'm giving you Trues vote, because he appears to like them as well).
Waffle Weave:5

Truedetailer, normally 1 24x30, or 25x35 Waffle Weave is sufficient to dry most vehicles. A large SUV may require an additional small one in the other hand.

Patrick, where do i start? I've had my opinions with you already about the use of clay. I hope your not really going to take this pole seriously, you've had over 125 veiws and 9 people to reply to it. 3/4 of the people who post on here are not professional detailers. Oh and just like shine pro stated YOU'VE been doing this for so long and know whats BEST in the industry. Its detailers like you that i can't stand. You set your mind on one product and it becomes the best thing to use and you try to push it on to everyone. guess what? both synthetic and your waffle weeve chamios do the same thing, they dry your car. Neither of them are better. its your personal preference as to what works for you. I have a feeling you started this thread becuase of my post in another thread concerning drying tools. Do you get that upset when someone else states their veiws and they don't match yours? You shouldn't be afraid to stoop to another ones level.. say what you have to say like i do.
