    Thumbs up Microfiber Drying Towel - Budget Buyers

    Just a heads up for anyone needing any spares like myself or just in need of some cheap drying towels. This is far below cobra guzzler quality but it's a decent substitute. If your on a budget get to wal-mart quick, I had to visit 2 stores to get 5.

    I tested the big one in the background yesterday and it performed great, completed a full crewcab f-350 in about 5min flat. The towel is supersoft and is large enough to tackle I believe anything.

    Wally World - $6.86 + tax

    6.5 sq ft - Microtex Car Drying Towel.

    My wife got one for me as a stocking stuffer last Xmas. Have used it with decent results about 4 times.

    Don't forget the white waffle weaves at Walmart as well. They are in the housewares section. They are like $3 for a two pack.

    I agree with you guys, I also have a bunch of budget-buy MFs, but once you go with Cobra's line, there's no going back.

    I wouldn't buy those for drying. I have some from Sams Club, and they are decent for buffing, but stink for drying or QDing. Once they get wet, they just streak everything.

    vroom microfiber is pretty good for bulk microfiber, but it leaves small lints pieces like crazy after afew washings, so don't use it on glass. I use mine on jambs, interior, ect...
