Waffle Weave Drying Towel Help.

[greencode]

I've seen that most people on here prefer this rather than a chamois leather but I'm just wondering if there's any difference between an expensive one compared to a cheapo one?

I've seen this on on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Waffle-Weave-Drying-Towel-Blue_W0QQitemZ120313023733QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item120313023733&_trkparms=72%3A1301%7C39%3A1%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C240%3A1318&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Also, are these different to a normal microfibre cloth - I've got loads of those already!

I bought a couple of Miracle Dryer Ultra 2000 somethingorother drying towel. They're basically thicker MF cloths.

A lot of hardcore detailers don't "wipe" the surface dry. They place the towel on the surface and then pat it down, so there's no wipe marks. I find they hold a helluva lot of water compared to normal MF cloths and this isn't just down to a larger size.

I now prefer these to the standard Tesco £1 MF cloths I used to buy.

You get what you pay for the better one's either hold more water (as StealthWolf said), are plusher, or longer lasting, or all of the above.

I have a few expensive ones for drying and buffing, and cheapo one's for the other jobs.

Grilling, baking, frying or eating them may result in injury, and is not reccomended by GolfGTI.co.uk

I hate my Megiuars (sp?) waffle weave cloth.  It's rubbish at soaking anything up.

I bought some cheap MF cloths from online, about 4 quid each for large ones, and they are tons better than the waffleweave ever was.  I feel ripped off spending a tenner on it!
