i think i bought mine from polished bliss, along with a bottle of menzerna full molecular jacket sealant.

the towel was a tenner and the sealant was £30. not cheap by any means but im very happy with the results

Megs towels are utter crap imo as is most of there other stuff. Over hyped crap products imo..

Autoglym and Turtle wax stuff wins hands down for me..

They just move water around mate, a good old chamois leather (not a synthetic one) is a hundred times better in my experience

Agree completely... mine gets used for wiping oily hands on now..

It soaks up nothing, just pushes the water about..

yeah soaks the water up when nice and hot but takes too much work, takes about an hour if not more to completely dry the car

I use a drying blade first then chamois... makes it much quicker.. Wouldnt be keen on using a blade on a nice car but I dont really care much for my 13 year old paint..
