Not really a review, but I felt I had to share. I was feeling quite guilty for dropping $76 on two towels. But I used the PFM drying towel today for the first time. And now I know what the PFM stands for. Pure F$&%#* Magic.

I am astonished how well this works. It's as if it defies the laws of physics. You just get it close to the water, and it jumps off like the towel is magnetic to water. I had been using the big blue waffle weave drying towels for years. This thing is really, really good.

I do wish it were half the size, but still. It's brilliant.

Sometimes I regret reading threads here...because they result in me spending more money!!

I don't have one as I have plenty of drying towels but I want one just so I can say I have it and begin using it.

They really are amazing......would never have believed I'd drop almost 40.00 on one towel...but it's worth every penny

Why do you wish it were smaller?

With the large towel, after drying your entire vehicle, does it seem like it could dry another entire vehicle?

These towels are really outstanding. I use the 16x16 and have given a few away to other detail buddy's. The only other towel that compares in performance for drying is the DMC from MM. And the PFM's are about $6 cheaper per towel.

Well, I'm doing a rinseless wash. So I'd rather have a bit smaller towel bc I don't need all the surface area. The thing gets heavy.

I am positive it would completely dry both the wife's van, and my SUV. She didn't get a wash today. ;-)

I did see the 16 x 16, but I didn't notice it being marketed as a drying specific towel. So I wasn't sure if the composition was the same or not. Didn't want to chance it.

Picked up the 2 pack of the 16" x 16" ones on my last order. Plan on using one tomorrow.

I use the 16x16's for rinseless drying. They are great. I don't have a large one to compare but I think they are identical other than size.

They look and feel the same to me. I use the 16x16 grey PFM towels when drying rinseless wash solution and I use the larger grey PFM towel to dry rinse water after a standard wash. The performance is top notch for both products.

How in the wide world do you wring out the larger one? lol Ive got bigger hands and the 16x27 WW's are about as big as I can wring comfortably.
