    Re: Drying towels , 1-2 towels enough? And MF towel detergent question.

    I second everyone who has recommended the Griot's towel. Picked up a couple a month ago and have fell in love with them. They hold onto water like crazy.

    PFM for the win. The Gyeon towel is really good,but not as good as the PFM from Griot's.

    The strange thing about the PFM is they have started to work better now when they get a little damp,or so it seems. I've had mine for about 2 years now.

    I've always used Towel Kleen also.

    Re: Drying towels , 1-2 towels enough? And MF towel detergent question.

    Are you doing your own business or just your own car? You don't have to do towels every week if you get a lot of towels. I do like every 6 weeks but have lots of towels. An amount that many would consider to be a mental disorder.

    I do use only 1 big and 1 small paint drying towel but of course you need some lesser towels for
    trim and rims duty


    Edit: Im not in love with the griots towel that everyone recommends. I have 3 of them but I find the dry me a river waffle weaves to be more delicate. Its a decent towel though obviously people rave about it.

    The Griots PFM is the best drying towel on the market and it works for bucket washes, waterless washes or rinseless washes. One towel will dry my entire truck. Just keep folding it to a new surface. I have used Blackfire microfiber detergent and Chemical Guys Citrus microfiber wash. I do like the Chemical Guys detergent but I will have to check out 3D Towel Kleen.

    I just bought one and I'm looking forward to using it or the first time soon after reading all the great reviews here on the forum. I bought 2 waffle weave drying towels that were reccommended on this forum but I wasn't overly impressed and I dont know how I missed all the rave reviews about the GG PFM drying towels when I was doing my original research here.

    You'll be amazed. It's that good.
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    I use 10 MF towels to do a rinseless and it only takes one waffle weave to dry. I throw them in the washer after and use a free and clear then hang dry, do not use the dryer and never mix with anything else with your MF towels. You don't need a special MF cleaner for the washer.

    I bought one of the Gyeon silk dryers during the recent 1/2 off MF sale but must say that I was disappointed in its performance vs. my Griot's PFMs. I've since relegated the Gyeon to drying the windows and using the PFMs on the paint.

    I use a free and clear and based off of some recommendations from griots MF wash which you add to the F&C and MF’s come out much softer. I tumble dry with no issues so far with 6 mo old MF. I dry on extra low 10 min then air fluff for 10 then hang. W/O dryer MF’s seem real stiff. It’s not as cheap as 3D Kleen but use less of it per wash makes it a great value.

    Got a bottle of 3D Kleen to compare.

    Personal car . I have lot of towels and need to organize my towel by color or it will get mixed and washing will contaminate each other
    (Like dressing interior towel) mixed with drying towel seems like bad idea lol.
