I have tried just about every drying product out there and always ended up back with my old bath towels (cotten of course) until I came across this towel. Excellent absorbsion. It takes only one towel to do the whole car, does not leave streaks. I usually use 2 or 3 bath towels. I first use the California blade then this towel. I stocked up on them because they are hard to find around here. Nothing else compares.

This towel really can absorb a lot of water similar to a chamois, yet is easier to wring out. Using just one towel I had to wring it out numerous times to dry the entire car (water was really beaded up), and once wet it does leave a slight bit of moisture behind...not enough to spot though. Best thing, it doesn't leave any lint on the surface of the car like a terry towel. Only complaint is that it could be a bit larger.

The Meguiars water magnet lives up to its name. It dries great and does not scratch. Make sure to wash the car with a brush before drying to get all the dirt off, simple powerwashing will not remove all dirt. Do not use one of those california water blades, sand and dirt particles get swiped across the side and leave tons of tiny scrathes.

While I don't necessary condone drying cars with a towel (micro-marring, even with microfiber), this is an awesome one that should (for the most part) keep your car safe from any debris that might be left on there as you dry. Remember to blot not swipe! Wring out the towel often and visually and physically inspect for dirt and debris. I usually wash after a use and keep it in a sealed (clean) 5 gallon bucket so no dirt/debris gets in. You will inevitably have to wring this out a couple times while drying a car, but that can't be a negative? You want a towel twice the size go for it - but you'll be touching that to the ground or wheel or something else accidentally drawing up some dirt with it. The size and functionality of this is perfect, I highly recommend this product.

These are great towels. I don't understand some of the negative reviews, you CAN wring them out when they get really wet and they DO dry very well. It typically takes two or three of these to fully dry my 2011 Silverado Crew Cab, including the bed cover. I use two at a time...one to get most of the water and the other to get any excess that's left behind. They work so well that I bought two more so that if I wash both the truck and the car, I always have a dry one.

Highly recommended.

Two words: Quick, fast
It takes 3 minutes to dry my midsize sedan by using Maguiar's X2000 Magnet Drying Towel.

The towel doesn't feel like a high quality product: it isn't. When I received it, the material does feel a little cheap, but it does what it says: sucks water off your car.

It is a very thin towel, so when I'm going to rinse my car I first use a microfiber that is thick enough to remove excess water from my Smart and then dry the remaining with the Meguiar's (if you have a bigger car then 1 of this would not be enough, at least 2 or 3). This towel doesn't leave any streaks or spots, but again, been too thin makes it useless if you don't have a dozen or maybe use it like I just explained.

A good product, but not a marvel. I'm pretty sure there are much better products and bigger towels that are as absorbant or more than this one.

We bought the Meguiar's water magnet towel, about a month ago and it works excellent. We love it and would definitely recommend. It makes drying the car a breeze!!!

I cannot believe they put this on the market. Once it gets wet, there isn't much you can do about wringing it out. It's title is true - it is a water magnet. The problem is it just won't let the water go. This towel is horrible. I suggest using the 3-pack microfiber Meguiar's towels sold by Amazon as well under the subject "Meguiar's X2020 Supreme Shine Microfiber - Pack of 3".

Soft and really soaks up the water, and it rings out easy. Its perfect. The only thing that would make it better would be a hard case to carry it in.
