DI Microfiber Waffle Weave Drying Towel Reviews

Professional Detailer Reviews

This towel seems to have the best of both worlds: safety of a Waffle Weave Microfiber, with the longevity of a chamois. In short, I've continually bought more and more of this towel, and the ones from a year ago do just as good as the ones I bought a week ago. This is by far one of the best microfibers I've come across.
Product Review: Detailed Image Waffle Weave Drying Towel
Quite simply it's a must have towel for any detailer. It stands out in every way and makes drying a much less tedious task. It collects water better and more than any towels I have tried, it's extremely soft and safe on all paint finishes and most importantly it's extremely durable.

Unfortunately as one of the other reviewers mention, once you wring out towel the first time after it gets absorbed with water i found it to almost stick to paint as you move along the surface, my car is a new and surface is in perfect condition. Towels are a personnel choice for detailing so try a few different one as I did till you find the one to your likening. But this towels really isn't great for what it's touted to do.

Sorry about negative review

If this towel is completely dry it will soak up water, but after you wring it out and go back again it is useless. All it does is push water around without soaking it up. Im sure it has its applications in use but to market this as a replacement for a chamois is ridiculous.

I LOVE the smaller version of this towel, and figured I'd love this one too, but it's a little big to handle properly, so I'm going to try cutting in half and just use those!

Really, what's left to be said that hasn't already been dozens of times in these reviews? Well, just this. I use the larger sizes exclusively for drying vehicles like so many of you. That said, I do the dishes at our house as the house rule is The Cook Doesn't Do Dishes. My bride tends to buy "pretty" dish towels that are about as useful for drying as sandpaper-wrapped lightbulbs. Despite my best efforts, finding towels to dry with met with mediocre results at best. As we have folks over on occasion, and wind up with dozens of dishes and tons more glasses, the latter requiring hand-washing due to fragility (think stemmed) or "labeling" (think high gravity), I grabbed a couple smaller ones, washed them, and voila! Best glasses drying in the history of humanity. Obviously keep them separated from those put to their intended use.

Leaves behind too much water no matter how many times you wringoit and go over an area so you'll get spots if you don't move to a dry towel fast enough. I prefer to use a super shammy or similar to remove most of the water quickly and them move to finishing towel

I use this towel after a foam gun wash, with a rinseless wash, a regular 2 bucket wash. It always performs. So very soft, right down to the edging. I like to throw it out folded once, let it lay flat, then pull it slowly towards me, easy. Works even when its wet. My pros are the size and softness, with the only con being the price, If I catch it on sale, I buy.

It doesn't dry as efficiently as a chamois, but since the entire detailing world advises not to use chamois (because of ingrained grit in the leather?), I've been using the waffle. It's ok, though it leaves streaks. I'm curious to see how it works now that I've applied Klasse sealant on my car.

This towel is great and deserves the number of reviews. I've bought it multiple times and have four or five and I use some after every wash.
A potential con would be needing several towels to get two cars dried off. I think part may be the environment rather than towel's fault. Houston can be pretty hot in the summer and don't want water to dry so I work to get a car dried quickly after rinsing. I normally wash both cars at the same time since I've got everything out and already sweaty.
Overall, great towel and really like it. I look forward to utilizing it my regular routine for a while.

Great micro fiber products to keep the clear coat on my new Fusion looking great for years to come. These products are much better than what can be found at the local discount auto parts stores.

I have a very old chamois (circa 1990) that I prefer for the initial wipe because I find it easier to wring out than the waffle cloth. I like the waffle cloth for absorbing the trace amount of water that the chamois leaves behind. In combination they make an excellent drying team.

This is my first waffle weave towel and I am not impressed. This thing mostly shoves the water around and absorbs hardly anything.

This waffle weave towel has been very durable and absorbent, however, I suggest having at least 2 towels at the ready if you have a large car.

This is a very thin towel and I was surprized that it absorbs as much or more water than other towels that are twice as thick.
Pros - Soft, absorbent, lint free, good value, safest drying medium I've found so far.
Cons - A bit pricey. It is thin and quickly absorbs water so you have to wring it out often. Easy to use, but it is microfiber so it must be carefully washed or it will lose its characteristics.
Based upon 2 months of continuous use on a coupe and SUV, I would definitely buy again and recommend. I will not use anything else now.

This towel is awesome. In the past all I have used is an "absorber" towel to dry my car after a nice wash. Although this synthetic rubberish towel would dry my car fairly well it would still leave streaks and blotches in certain spots.

Waffle weave towels are an absolute must for drying a vehicle. One towel easily dries an entire car after rinsing using the sheeting method and blowing most of the water off with a blower. Pat dry and avoid wiping as much as possible. Absorbs water like crazy. I rarely wring it out until I'm finished. Seems to hold up well to washes; use mild detergent on delicate setting, dry on lowest setting with no dryer sheets.

Long term review. Been using these for 2 years now.
Excellent towels. Not just good, they are excellent.
Extremely soft and thirsty.
Large size is just right: not too big, not too small.
I usually use 2 towels to dry a larger vehicle like a Tahoe, but I can sometimes get away with using just one towel on a small car like a Prius.
They take repeated machine washings and come out looking and feeling new (using microfiber towel cleaner of course, and no dryer sheets or softeners).
Highly recommended.

I had never used a waffle weave towel before. I tried the "pat down and drag off" method of drying on my last wash and I was shocked at how well it worked. The towel has a couple snags after only two washes which is annoying. I may have mishandled it or misused it a bit though so I can't say that is a real negative.

I consistently tell my car buddies that this towel is one of the best things I could buy for my car. It's soft and soaks up the remaining amount of water with ease.

One towel dries the entire care. When I have told people how much my towel cost I have seen their eyes bug. It is worth it. The DI Microfiber Waffle Weave Drying Towel is super absorbant and soft. I have three now, since I have two cars and can't be counted on to stay on top of the laundry. Recommended, especially on sale.

It sucks the water right off my car. I got two of the towels in a DI package but am able to dry my entire car pretty well with one. I have a g35 sedan. Anything bigger like a full size car, truck, or suv and I would recommend 2.

Awesome towel. Soaks up far more water than anything else. Just be sure not to put it in the drier (unless its air-dry), or use fabric softener. They become non-absorbant. Dont ask how I know...

Simply outstanding. I was impressed with this towel before my car was fully protected and water pooled. I would need two to totally dry the car, but now that I have sealant on the paint, and water beads easily, I could have tried two cars with the one towel. Excellent and so soft, I wish I could use one out of the shower!

The Best. All waffle weave towels are not created equal. I've purchased waffle weave towels at auto stores and have eventually been disappointed with the performance(thin, poorly sewn and not very absorbent). This DI towel is a professional-grade tool and has been my regular go-to drying towel for a year. High quality, of good weight and great performance. Have washed it many times and it is still holding up great. Buy the best, it's cheaper in the long run.

Prior to the DI Microfiber Waffle Weave Drying Towel, I was using only synthetic chamois to dry. Then I moved to using larger microfiber towels. Finally I decided to try DI's Waffle Weave, and I AM NOW 100% CONVERTED! This towel is awesome and has been the best drying tool that I have EVER used in years! It's amazing how much water this picks up before having to wring out. I can complete a compact car with this thing without wringing out; this is perfect with the blotting method too. Finally, all you have to do is lightly touch this towel to the paint surface and it absorbs like crazy. If you're on the fence about your decision, I suggest GET IT!

Great towel! I did the 'blotting' method with this towel to dry my entire car, and hit the car with quick detailer and a rethickulous towel to clean everything up. I was really pleased with the results. I can't wait for these to go on sale so I can get some more of these, as I paid full price the first time I purchased. Nonetheless I consider it money well spent! I'd recommend this to anyone looking to reduce chances of swirling your paint when drying.

I love when these go on sale so I can stock up. The waffle weave does make a difference compared to normal microfiber towels, it really soaks up the water. And unlike some competitor's products, I never have lint issues with my DI towels, and it's safer on the soft BMW paint than cotton, chamois, or an "Absorber".

This is great to remove the last bit of water on your car. After a wash i usually use a chamois or other item similar (the absorber) to remove the heavy water (but this leaves behind water streaks). Using this drying towel afterwords removes the last bit of water and leaves behind a dry surface to start your next step.
