Optimum Opti-Clay Towel - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I was looking around trying to find the best price on clay towels and I found this. http://www.autogeek.net/optimum-opti-clay-towel.html. It's half the price of the competing towels. I was wondering if anyone on here has tried it and how does it compare to the Speedy Prep towel and other competitors?

I have sm Arnold's towel. Other detailers on other forums I frequent do like the optimum towel. Give it a shot and let us know.

I have both the Arnold towel is better. twice as good maybe i think it will last 3-4 times longer then the optimum towel. Optimum towel works as good but looked a lot more beat up after a few cars then the Arnold towel did. I think the Optimum towel will get probably 10 cars out of it then its probably done or good for wheels or lower door sills.

Also the optimum towel is bit smaller when folded twice the Arnold towel fits my hand well and you can flip it around and get for uses before you have to rinse it out (I rinse it in a bucket of warm rinse-less wash). Optimum towel can only be folded once and fit my whole hand. 16x14 towel vs 12x12 towel if i remember right.
