Drying Towels need proper care if you want them staying soft, absorbent and safe on paint. Follow these simple rules: Wash separately Keep your car towel away from cotton or lint heavy fabrics. Drying towels grab lint easily and once it is embedded, it is hard to remove. Use warm water only 30 to 40 degrees is ideal. Avoid hot washes as excessive heat can damage the fibres and reduce absorbency. Liquid detergent only Powder detergents can leave residue in the fibres. Use a mild liquid detergent or dedicated microfibre wash. No fabric softener or dryer sheets These coat the fibres and dramatically reduce water absorption. This is the fastest way to ruin a drying towel for car use. Air dry or tumble dry low High heat can stiffen or shrink the fibres. Low heat or air drying keeps them performing properly. If your towel starts pushing water instead of absorbing it, it is usually detergent buildup or heat damage.

- Fast drying
- Drag drying large panels
- Ceramic coated vehicles
- Reducing streaking
- Pat drying

For car drying towels, GSM plays a major role in how much water the towel can safely absorb before becoming saturated. While mid weight towels can work, higher GSM options are generally better suited to modern detailing. Here is a more practical breakdown: 500 to 800 GSM Entry to mid level absorption. These can work on smaller vehicles or light maintenance drying, but they may require multiple passes or more than one towel on larger cars. 1000 GSM and above Designed for serious water absorption. Ideal for larger vehicles, SUVs, Utes and coated cars where water sits aggressively on the surface. Higher GSM towels hold significantly more water, reducing the need to wring out or swap towels mid dry. The key is pairing high GSM with the right weave. A well designed 1000 to 1400 GSM twisted loop drying towel offers both massive absorption and smooth glide, making the drying process faster and safer. If you are looking for the best car drying towel Australia wide and want maximum efficiency, durability and capacity, focusing on 1000 GSM and above is the smarter move.

Drying your car is extremely important to ensure that no water-spots form on the paint, keeping your car properly maintained.
If you don’t dry your car with a proper, high quality car drying towel then water left on your paint to dry can leave behind harmful minerals which can only be removed using specific water spot removers such as CarPro Spotless 2.0 and Nv Shift or by using strong acidic snow foam washes such as CarPro Descale. If left untreated, these minerals can etch into the paintwork and create paint defects that can only be removed by machine polishing.
