Ok to make you happy I've being looking at a Sonus Der Wunder Drying Towel ( I can get this quite cheap at the mo! If £7 is cheap?).. so will this be recommeneded over my rubber thing?  :lipsrsealed:

oh and so i don't start a new thread..If the weather is good this weekend my machine polisher will get some work with my merzerna stuff (I've had a few plays and seem to understand the workings!), although i've run out of wax to finish but might give some new polish a go? dodo juice or the new autoglym? rather than more collinite 915 (although i hear good things about R222 p21  :undecided:)

Sheet off the water first if you dont know what this is look on youtube.... that will get most of the water off. Drying with water sounds bizzar i know but it works...then trust sonus trying towel does the trick!  :smiley:

Just to give you a fairly cheap alternative, I use these towells (which are made for buffing off really), but they soak A LOT of water up and two does the entire car without the need to wring them out.

Pack of three for £9.50, and they do loads of other jobs too.

As I just put in another thread, get one of these to dry with http://www.elitecarcare.co.uk/eurowxlarge-waffle-weave-microfibre-drying-towel-26-x36-.php I used a leather chamois for years, but this waffle towel is miles better. :wink:
