By far the best drying towel I’ve ever used and I have tried tons of them.

I have tried lots of both.
Best Drying Towel Carpro DHydrate. Why? This towel is designed to just glide across the surface with no pressure. Removes all water in one pass. No streaks. Has one side for paint, one for glass. No friction from towel as you drag it. Extremely durable. Fibers do not pull out if drawn across badges or edges. Maintains absorbency wash after wash. Also very light and easy to use. Best Polishing Towel Microfiber Madness Crazy Pile. Why? A softer towel does not exist. This towel will remove whatever wax, sealant, or polish you are using with ease, and keep removing it long after other towels are loaded up. The most perfect towel made. You could beat your paint with this towel and not scratch the surface.

To dry:
Master Blaster Revolution, or Adam's Air Cannon (Warm Filtered Air that a Leaf Blower doesn't have). Follow up with Adam's Waterless Wash or new CS3 using one of his Mini Ultra Plush Drying Towels or Waterless Drying Towels. To Polish: Adam's Single Soft Premium Microfiber Towels. Which ever microfiber towels you decide to go with make sure they are made in South Korea, not China, and they don't have tags sewn onto them.

A pooling rinse is the best thing you can do prior to drying your car after washing.
Removes 80-90% of the water, leaving very little to dry.

A Metrovac Master Blaster or Adam's Air Cannon used on a vehicle with a nice LSP is even better than a pooling rinse!

A metro vac costs $280, the adams is $300......A gallon of water from my hose costs a penny and a half.
1 minute to do the pooling rinse, 2 minutes to drag a DHydrate towel to get the rest of the water. 10 minutes with a cordless blower (Black & Decker) I paid $30 for, to blow all the water out of the areas where a towel will not get to, along with the wheels/tires. With the $270 left over I can buy all the towels, wash mitts, shampoo, and LSP I need for years.

Our daily rides get washed at the car wash and then drove home. A nice 10 minute commute back to the house and 99% of the water is gone. Then I'll hit them with a damp synthetic chamios. I use a older one for the door jams. My 1Le has only been washed twice since I bought it. I use meguiars detail spray and i detail it all up with Member's Mark Microfiber Towels (36 cloths per package) from Sam's. We've used these for years now including on our race cars with very good results. At one point when we were racing, I think we had something like 40-50 packs on hand at all times.

Best drying towel - Adam's ultra plush.
Best polish towel - the rag company Everest 800gsm or 1100gsm
