PFM Towel - anything "better" available in todays market for drying?
I purchased 2 of the 16x16 PFM towels back in 2018 and have been using them to dry with a spray of drying aid after a rinseless wash. It's time to replace them now due to usage and all the washes.
Only complaint I have about them would be I would prefer an edgeless towel. Otherwise, they did a great job.
Is there anything on the market that would be "better" or edgeless that is 16x16 or very close? Otherwise, should I just buy myself a new package of them?

In my opinion, there are no better drying towels.
Why are yours needing replacement after only 2 years? Mine are going strong 5 years in.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

Autofiber dreadnaught, mckees glacier, and dpc sucker are all edgeless versions similar to pfm

The edges are my only dislike with the pfm.
I just ordered 2, McKees Glacier 16 x 16s to give a whirl.

Some of the loops are starting to stick out / pulled out

Glacier 16 x 16 looks pretty good, may have to give that a try

So I grabbed a couple of these and haven’t used yet. They seem great but I feel like they would also make nice cloths for quick detailers etc?
Kinda small for drying compared to my massive waffle weave cloths...

Don't let the size fool you. They hold a ton of water for their size. I much prefer them over the waffle weaves I have.
I also like the smaller size for maneuverability.

Don't let the size fool you, the 16x16" towel is enough to dry a smaller vehicle. If you have a large one two towels will do it. They absorb a lot of water.
They also work fine with quick detailers and drying aid, I use it all the time.

This happened to one of my PFMs, I just snipped off the excess with some scissors and it was good to go.

I've not found anything I like better than PFMs. I have one of the original large size, and several of the 16x16 size. Only drawback is, because they are designed to hold a lot of water, they take a long time to completely dry
