Adam Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Well my friends, there is an infomercial going on currently selling a synthetic chamois, and it's called ShamWow! Does anyone have one, or has anyone used one?? Thanks in advance for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzdimond Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 I am almost embarrassed to admit...... but, yes, I have a set. Wife got it for me to "help" with drying the cars. I "accidentally" dropped them in used oil so they are for general cleaning now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewy Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 SHAM is right! I have to believe those would put more scratches in a car then sand paper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humster21 Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 My wife is a sucker sometimes and got a set at Wal-Mart. They will never leave the kitchen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_pappy Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Yep, I gave my mom for using under the dish strainer. I cut one up, use it with the leather cleaner. My dog didn't like it. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRQuarto Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 They feel scratchy....I wouldn't go anywhere near my paint with one. Would probably work great for the engine bay though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
70'sChevyGirl Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 I have a set that my mom gave me. I wash dishes, clean up the kitchen and use them as rags. I would NEVER use them on my car!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bert Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I got a set as a gag gift for Christmas. When spring rolls around, I will pull out the panels I bought from the junk yard to teach myself how to use a rotary and try out the Sham Wow's on them to see if they scratch. I guess I could also do the CD test also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P's Titan Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 I bought some a year ago ( not for the Truck thou ) I use them for the house only, it will never touch the paint on my truck. I have seen people in the area use them to dry there cars. It makes me cringe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reedlum Posted January 30, 2009 Share Posted January 30, 2009 My Mom gave me a set (with a $100 bill stuffed inside) for Christmas. I use them to speed up the drying process of my Gen 2 pads. I'll use the $100 to restock my Adams supply.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim293 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 My Dad had given me some and I have never used them. Have always been afraid they would scratch my car. However I just found a use for them. I am going to use them to dry my dog off. I only use the Adams Microfiber on my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
