Water still flew off easily. Not as easy with my car but again, only required one drying towel. Then again.. I really didn't get old with it

I highly recommend it.
That is because you use the 8HP Master Blaster lol which is twice more powerful than than 4HP Metro Blaster. Yeah, as I mentioned before, you still need a drying towel to follow up here and there.

Master Blaster is the best out there. I don't think the rechargeable one is powerful enough.

No matter what you use, your car paint needs to bead/sheet water well with sealant/wax or paint coating for it to be effectively dried by the machine.

These were for several local enthusiasts... I put together a group buy for a few local forums that I sponsor.


I've got several hundred of my own though... certainly not overkill... I average 70-100 towels per vehicle that I work on

It Is! I bought something similar at DI for $5 per towel! The DI ones are softer but can't beat the value!

im sure the DI are nice for $5 per. but thats too pricey for me..thats 3x the price of these chemical guys towels which do just wat i need them to do. I have a black car so i can really tell when a product works well or not, and these towels leave no marring after final inspection.
