Microfiber Madness

Ok, so I finally got my griots garage and DA microfiber pad kit. Just did the trunk area, and wow I was shocked how easy it was to remove the swirls and light scratches. Just did the trunk, will do the rest week of Xmas as I'm off then.

I may have to buy a camera now.

Anyway, I wanted to get the best possible wash mitt and drying towel, and after reading tons of reviews the incredimittt, and the dry me crazy look to be the best at avoiding scratches and swirls.

I've only found 1 place that sells them, Car pro, and it's 55 dollars for just the two shipping included. Any other places sell these?

Ok then, thanks for the advice.

$55 is a lot for 1 mitt and 1 towel, but why spend hours to remove the light swirls and scratches, only to put them back in with an inferior wash/dry product.

I was actually going to just buy online, I guess I will call and ask for Corey.


I did call him and he was very good to deal with, even gave me a discount code. I did mention you referred me.

This Dry Me Crazy drying towel is hands down the best one I've ever owned. It absorbs water like a like a sponge, hasn't induced a scratch in 12 uses, and cleans up easily in washer on gentle cycle, even with grease on it.

The Incredimitt holds suds on the outside for a long time, releases dirt easily when rinsed, maintains the softest feel of any mitt I've ever used, also cleans with ease in washer.

These products weren't cheap, but the quality is excellent. I wouldn't use anything else to hand wash/dry my car with. Fantastic products.

Plan to get several crazy pile towels for spring detail. No brainer.

Dry Me Crazy is the best!

I've never used a leaf blower, don't see how you would use it on the door jambs, interior trunk, and under the hood. I can dry all these areas, along with the exterior, in 10 minutes using this towel and a little detail spray.

I never have to wring it out once, and it's only damp when completed.

Best part is no scratches. This towel is soft as a baby's blanket from start to finish.

And I don't have to haul out an extension cord, plug it up, and wrap it up when finished.

I just throw it in the wash with 1/4 to 1/2oz of micro restore, and it's ready to go again.
