It’s time to put your chamois leather down. If you want to take your car detailing serious, it’s time to pick up the right products. You might think drying your car is a minor detail (pun intended) when it comes to car cleaning, but the difference between using an absorbent drying towel vs a product designed to be rung out time and time again is huge. We put the Meguiar’s Microfibre Duo Twist drying towel to the test to see how it fairs.

How We Tested the Meguiar’s Microfibre Duo Twist Drying Towel
After washing and rinsing my car, I used the Meguiar’s Microfibre Duo Twist Drying Towel to dry it. I checked to see how much water it absorbed on the first pass. After this, I inspected how much moisture was left on the panel. Finally, I finished drying the car to see how effective the towel was. Also, while using the drying towel, I noted how heavy it felt, and how easy it was to use.
First Impressions
This is another drying towel that foregoes plushness. But just because it’s not as fluffy as others, that doesn’t mean it’s no good. It’s got loads of duo-twist microfibers, and it’s big, too. In a world of brightly-colored drying towels, it’s a little dull, but if that’s all I’ve got to moan about, it’s not exactly a big deal.
Features
This drying towel measures 35×20”. That means it’s big, but not quite as big as some of its rivals. But it’s still an exceedingly large towel. While it might look thin, it boasts a 1200 GSM construction, which is very impressive, and means it’s nice and soft. Its duo-twist construction means that each drying fiber is two strands twisted together. Rather than the soft, fluffy, plush structure, it feels a bit more like a bath towel.
What’s It Like To Use the Meguiar’s Microfibre Duo Twist Drying Towel
This towel dries really well. I honestly didn’t expect too much from it, but it really impressed me. It absorbed way more water than I expected it to, and I was very impressed with how little moisture was left behind after just the first wipe. It proceeded to happily soak up all the water and did a very impressive job.
The Verdict
The Meguiar’s Microfibre Duo Twist drying towel is very impressive. It’s very nice to use and dries very well. There’s really nothing to complain about here. Other towels are a little softer and bigger, but this towel is still an excellent choice.
