I don't use one from here as my primary, so I'll leave it at that like the others.

However, I do own one of these : Meguiars Water Magnet is a soft waffle weave microfiber drying towel that's softer than terry towels and more absorbent than a chamois. Attracts water

I was surprised at how well it works. I'd prefer for it to be a bit softer, but I've had no issues with it marring the surface. It absorbs water well and is easy to wring out.

I guess I didn't realize they sold that here; that's a good towel at a good price, I agree it doesn't feel very soft.

Waffle weave for drying a regular wash. I mostly do rinseless washes, so I use a plush, 16" x 16" towel, with D156 for extra shine.

i have that towel, well one identical to it from chemical guys

its brand new in the package yet....i opened it up, felt the towel and thought it was too "stiff" to dry with. I thought for sure it will scratch my paint

maybe i should give it a try?

Ill try it out on some pretty hard paint first ......

If your CG towel is "stiff" it's nothing like the one I linked.

The Meg's towel I linked to is pretty thin and handles like any normal towel or rag. Once it's damp it works really well. My "soft" comment was not in the pliability, but the actual texture of the fabric. I have others which feel softer to the touch.

Wash it first, that'll soften it up.

I use a waffle weave and another that isn't sold here that ABSORBS (hint) well. I'm a dabber though. I just lay them on the wet spots, and dry them up that way. That's really all they are good for.
