Review: The "Go-To" for Crystal Clear Glass and Rinseless Washes! - I’ve been detailing my own cars for years, and while the "latest and greatest" drying towels keep getting thicker and heavier, I keep coming back to The Rag Company’s Dry Me A River waffle weaves. If you are looking for the "gold standard" for glass and light drying, this is it. The Performance: Windows & Glass: This is where these towels truly earn 5 stars. The waffle weave acts like a hundred tiny squeegees. It "bites" into that annoying smoker’s film or exterior road grime and leaves the glass streak-free. Unlike plush towels, these do not lint. Drying: At 390gsm, they are plenty thirsty. A 3-pack is the perfect amount for a Rinseless Wash (ONR style). If you’re doing a traditional "soapy" wash with a hose, these are great for drying one panel at a time, though you might need more than three to do a whole SUV without wringing them out. The Edge: The suede border is a huge plus. It’s soft enough that I never worry about it scratching my clear coat or trim. Why Korean 70/30 Matters: Don't be fooled by cheap "parts store" towels that claim to be the same. The Korean 70/30 blend in these is noticeably softer and more absorbent. They don’t get "crunchy" after three washes. I’ve had some of these in my rotation for over a year and they still perform like new. Pros: -Zero Lint: Essential for windows and mirrors. -Premium Feel: The 70/30 blend is much higher quality than the standard 80/20. -Perfect Size: 16x24 is easy to fold into fourths, giving you 8 fresh "sides" to work with. Cons: -Snags: Like all waffle weaves, be careful around sharp emblems or Velcro; the loops can snag if you aren't careful. Pro Tip: To keep these performing well, never use fabric softener or high heat in the dryer. Use a dedicated microfiber wash and dry on low heat. If you’re doing glass, use one damp to clean and a second dry one to buff—it’s a game-changer. Final Verdict: If you want the best glass towel on the market, buy these. If you want to dry a soaking-wet truck in 2 minutes, look at The Gauntlet or Liquid8r—but for everything else, these are a staple in my detailing bag.
Review: Great Multi Use Towel - Good Size - These towels are great for many uses. They are very absorbent and work great to blot dry my fabric convertible top. This 16 x 16 size works well for me when cleaning windows. They leave a streak free window every time. They are also very helpful when doing a waterless or rinseless wash. Typically, I do not let these towels get very dirty or greasy. However, they wash great. Any dirt or products wash right out. I wash my towels in a colorless and no scent laundry soap. Sometimes I will stop the wash cycle to let soak for a few minutes and then let the cycle continue. Also, when the cycle ends, I will run an extra rinse cycle to be sure all soap is removed. I recommend these towels and several others from the Rag Company. They have some quality towels. As always, the right tool for the job is half the battle.

## Features

- ULTRA-ABSORBENT DRYING POWER: Waffle-weave microfiber rapidly pulls water off paint, glass, and trim to shorten dry times and reduce water spots. It soaks up to 10 times its weight for faster, streak-free results

- PROFESSIONAL KOREAN 70/30 FIBER: AA-Grade, 390 gsm split microfiber features over 400,000 fibers per square inch for superior capillary action. Precision waffle pattern increases surface area for fast, streak-free drying

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does the 70/30 blend mean? Is it mixed with other fibers?**
A: 70/30 blend means that the towel is 70% polyester and 30% polyamide.  70/30 blends are the most expensive, the most absorbent and the softest

**Q: Can I get instructions for washing these towels?**
A: Hi Joseph,
Thank-you for your question and thank-you for your business!  The Rag Company posts Cleaning and Care Instructions on all our Amazon listings in the "Product Description" section of the listing (Amazon has you scroll down to this section).  The basic instructions are as follows:
CARE INSTRUCTIONS: Wash Prior to First Use; Machine Washable with Mild Liquid Detergent (no dyes or perfumes); Tumble Dry Low Heat or Hang to Dry; NO bleach; NO fabric softener; NO Iron; Only Wash with Other Microfiber Products
Please let us know how else we can help.  Best regards-
The Rag Company

**Q: How does this compare to the towels from the dry me a river set?**
A: Hi Eric, thank-you for your question. This Full-Size (26"x59") is our largest South Korean waffle-weave towel and is made with the same highest-quality AA-Grade Hyosung microfiber as the others in the series.  We have two other sets of Dry Me A River waffle-weave towels with one set consisting of two 20"x40" towels and another set with one 20"x40" + one 16"x24" towel.  The primary differences are the size (as indicated in each products title and details) and colors as indicated in the pictures and details. Thank-you for your business!The Rag Company

**Q: Will the 26x59 "Dry Me a River" be offered again?  20x40 is too small to dry my large shower.**
A: Hi, thank-you for your request. Our apologies for temporarily being out of stock with this popular towel. The 26x59 Dry Me A River towel is expected to be available again early April 2018. Thank-you for your business! Best regards-
The Rag Company
