I have been using a synthetic chamois for years and have never considered anything else to use for drying the car. But when I watch some youtube detailer channels they are always using a thick microfiber towel or a leaf blower(!) to remove the surface water. Is using a towel better and quicker than a chamois? I have no complaints with my "The Absorber" but I wonder if I am missing out on something better.

 

Only you can decide what is better way to dry...
DO not believe everything on the internet.


remember ...every time something touches your paint it gets MICRO scratches...
Darker colors show this more then other other colors under bright lights...

 

Personally, I find using a MasterBlaster air blower to quickly dry the car off faster and then use a microfiber towel with some Adam's CS3 (Clean, Shine and Protect) to be very effective.
I'm also currently in the process of completing a two step paint correction with a ceramic coating to speed the washing & drying process up even faster!
