Crooz1n Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Has anyone from the Adams team seen these yet? I think they work much better than waffle weaves. Waffle weaves seem to need to be wet before they will absorb for me. maybe I'm doin' it wrong but the Terry weave I tried this weekend was awesome.

0 chops1sc Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 I've actually experienced the opposite. My waffle weaves soak up a TON. They start off dry. I only switch to smaller sizes for drying the sides so I don't accidentally get the Great White on the ground. Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use another company's "pfm" drying towel and it's seriously the best drying towel that I've ever used. The only thing I don't like about it is that it's pretty large and nearly impossible to wring out...you don't ever have to wring it out when drying, but I hand wash the towel after and that's when it's a pain.

0 Rich Posted March 16, 2017 Share Posted March 16, 2017 Terry is good, but you'll have a lot more fibers sticking to your paint. I'll stick with the waffle weave as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Crooz1n Posted March 16, 2017 Author Share Posted March 16, 2017 Rich, Maybe you misunderstood or I didn't express myself well. Its a longer loop microfiber they are labeling as "Microfiber terry weave drying towel". No fibers to leave behind. Rich 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is by far the best drying towel I have ever used. I know we're not supposed to discuss competitors products but Adams needs a towel like this.

0 Ls1transam Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 My little Toyota has really soft paint. The waffle weaves swirled it up for me. So I need a different type of towel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am familiar with the 'pfm' towel you're referring to. They make a 16x16 version of it that is a lot easier to handle. It is, hands down, the very best drying towel I've used Edited April 19, 2017 by briarpatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 USCGRetiredJosh Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 (edited) Please ignore this post. I made a comment but don't want to make a "mod" or Adam's. In short, I was looking a website. Edited April 19, 2017 by USCGRetiredJosh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Cork Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Looks like Adams will soon be offering a new drying towel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Dan@Adams Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Yep, it's available now! I missed this thread last month and I'm just seeing it now, otherwise I would've commented back then that we've been testing out towels similar to the 'pfm' towel. We're happy to offer our own version now as well: Adam's Ultra Plush Drying Towel Nickfire20 and Junior 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Cork Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 I will be trying one of these with my next order. Any plans to offer a smaller version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sixsix Posted April 26, 2017 Share Posted April 26, 2017 Looks like it's only thick on one side? If so that may make it easier to wring out....that's the only thing I don't like about the PFM towel. It gets so heavy but it's nearly impossible to wring out. And if you hang it up to air dry it takes about a week before it's dry. Nickfire20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, it's very similar to our Green Glass Towel in design in that it has one thick side and one thin side, just softer and a much larger size!
