    The best video so far I've seen on car drying towels. Most people show their performance on perfectly coated surfaces, but Josh actually showed us how the towels do on different coatings as well as on an untreated area.

    I’ve come a long ways from digging out a bath towel out of my mom’s linen closet as a teenager to dry my car( of course mom was pissed I used her towels) to having these dedicated drying towels.

    I have six different brands of drying towels and my favorite is the Griot’s Garage PFM drying towel. If you look at it up close it has a twisted loop construction that provides superior drying. The weight is 1120gsm so there is lots of twist loop material to absorb more water. The plush microfiber towels are the worst for drying a wet car. The plush are good for applying and buffing spray detailers and spray sealants.

      They also suck for leaving behind fibres, so you have to wash them first unlike some of the others you mentioned.

    Good video. The hand feel of the gauntlet is amazing. I'd say a follow up test could include wetting the panel 6 to 10 times (to simulate a car) and see which one continues to perform. I know that's a lot of work, but you could easily squeeze a video out of each towel and do towel reviews in addition to the pressure washers.

    Drying towels, twist loop, really do a great water removal system. A small blower would really be a great addition to car washing!

    I recently got the "Rapid Dry Towel" and have been loving it for how well it collects water.
    The mammoth is good as well. I like how that one can be used for multiple cars before really having to dry it

    I picked up a Gauntlet from TRC last year and it was a game changer for me washing my wife’s Acura MDX and my Honda Accord. I picked up another this Cyber Monday so I could wash both cars consecutively on the weekends. I love that TRC offers it in multiple sizes as well.

    I’ve been wanting to startup my own detailing business for about a year now but recently I’ve been really motivated and have found myself with your Chanel while doing some research. You’re by far the best reviewer I have found with how detailed you are with the products. I would love to get this blower as I originally had this as a future update along with the towels as the gauntlet is going to be my go to after I saw your video. Happy holidays, glad I found your channel.

    • @PTerracina
      @PTerracina 3 роки тому +3

      In my experience, yes it does. I soak mine in P&S Rags to Riches for 24+ hours before washing my drying towels to try and remove any drying aid from the fibers. I'll occasionally put some Super Clean in the soak bucket with the towels, as well.

    Dang. I bought large rag company waffle weave few years ago and still love it (I do a final rinse with about 3 gallons of store bought distilled water on my 911, and 4 gallons on Tacoma and MDX). Just washed all 4 of our cars over the weekend and still love the way the waffle weave works. The cars that sit outside I blew dry a bit with leave blower and leave them. The distilled water leaves very very little spotting, but not perfect. But you just got me to try the twisted loop. Lol
