The Original 2.0 Car Drying Towel

We’ve made it better. We were told you couldn’t do it. But after three years we did it. The Original is now the 2.0. Softer, more absorbent and just better than our old best.

BTW. We were told that the original fabric was impossible to make. But we did and now we have done this. 

Dry an average sized car without having to wring out the towel. It's a game changer.

After years of searching for a chamois to dry cars without wringing out we came to a conclusion - it didn't exist. So... We invented it.

The Original 2.0 - Rapid Dry Vehicle Towel.

✔️ Size of a beach towel

✔️ Will not scratch

✔️ Creates no lint

✔️ Dry an entire car without stopping to wring out

✔️ Will machine wash and dry 500+ times

This is the best car/plane/boat drying towel you will ever use and when it comes to drying your car, SUV, truck, boat, or plane, SIZE DOES MATTER which is why the Rapid Dry Towel is a whopping 59x30in. And it comes in a very handy carry bag.

Dry your car in as little as 90 seconds!

1. How do I wash my Rapid Dry Towel?

Machine wash with cold to warm water. You can use a soft detergent however we don’t think it is necessary as the towel will retain some of the car wash and you are attempting to keep the towel 100% free of any residue. Avoid using fabric softener or bleach, as these can damage the fibres and reduce their effectiveness.

Dry the towel on low heat in a tumble dryer or air-dry (best kept out of the sun when drying as the sun can react with minerals in your water to and make fabrics become hard which reduces their effectiveness).

It's best to keep microfiber and regular fabrics separate when you wash/dry. Microfiber won't create lint. But the lint from regular fabrics could get into the microfiber weave - and then it won't be the 100% scratch free microfiber that you are after.

2. What is the Rapid Dry fabric?

It's 100% microfiber (with a very unique blend).

It is a channel weave that we found to be the best in testing.

3. How long will it take me to dry my car?

Answer - a lot quicker than without.

We dry Porsche 911s in 90 seconds but a regular car will be 3 minutes or so.

5. How scratch resistant is my Rapid Dry Towel?

Very. But, check your towel for dirt and other foreign objects prior to each use - or after each wash like me. Remember, the cloth is scratch resistant but that little twig isn't.

6. How long will my Rapid Dry Towel last?

500+ machine washes and tumble dries. It really is a great fabric. Honestly.

7. Is The Original Rapid Dry Towel too cumbersome when it absorbs water?

No - it's definitely different than the wash cloth sized chamois that you pick up at the auto repair shop.

But you will find a new drying rhythm when you use it for the first time.

We use the full size for the roof, hood etc and fold it for the more intricate areas.

You can always put some of it over your shoulder too.

8. Will a Rapid Dry Towel dry my boat?

Absolutely. It will be lightening quick at that too.

9. What are other uses for Rapid Dry Towels?

We have customers that rave about their use on: people, shower glass, windows, dogs, horses, boats, planes, helicopters, jet skis. The fabric is incredibly absorbent and doesn’t streak so it lends itself to almost any purpose that you could need a piece of fabric for!
