Has anyone used this for drying car after a washing? If so how well does it work?

not for drying the car. but the other day i used it to blow off the tree blossoms/droppings, etc. i noticed that the blowing did not get off all the pollen clinging to the surface, so i doubt the drying power of the blower (and the capacity of the battery)

Never thought of that. I'd say there was enough drying power, the question would be whether the nozzle covered a wide enough areaon a car.

I've not used it to dry my car; I do use it to clean the dirt, grass, et cetera from my lawn tractor. It does a great job. I can't imagine it not working well to dry a car. It's quite powerful.

I washed mine in the washer. Air dry. But I think that would only work a few times until you need to go to the store and replace it. A car wax applicator looks to me like a good replacement.

Try using a gas powered lawn and garden leaf blower to remove the water from the surface of your car. I use this every time I wash my car and it is spotless and show room perfect. A high powered leaf blower works perfectly. Try it. It is the fastest way to dry your car. I have no fine scratches from towels.

I use it for polishing off wax (Chemical Guys) and works well (tear off the tag b4 use). For windows, I spray distilled water (no streaks) or Luber and use the cloth to wipe off the wet (absorbs well). Dries off rims just fine. After washing the car, i use a big raffle Micro Fiber (Viking) as these are too small. They are inexpensive and plentiful so I use it like paper towels but wash them later. I use it for our shower doors, countertops, mirrors, TV screen, etc with distilled water spray bottle.

Depends what size car you have.I would not recommend buying a motorcycle dryer for a complete car drying experience.Maybe if you just want to dry off your car wheels or other chrome parts with it but not entire car.I've used it for that purpose once in a while on my F150 4X4 W/20" chrome wheels and other assorted chrome parts after washing,but not entire truck.I bought my 4hp metro for my H-D motorcycle and it works well enough for that.

I have been using these towels on my black cars for quite some time now and they are perfect for drying off and they dont leave any lint particles behind.

Gentle cycle, half amount of laundry soap, in dryer low heat for about 10minutes and hung to dry outside. Did not damage product at all and rinsed clean nicely. My husband washed in regular cycle and high heat dryer as well and it stood up to both methods.

Never tried using it wet. I have only used it sanding down guitar finishes. If you have the product I suggest you try to use it on an area that will not be seen first, then do as appropriate. My concern is that a car finish is very thin and you could easily sand through it!! I have serious concerns about using anything other than vehicle recommended products!!

I have had no problems with it in car washes.Make sure it is securely mounted with no long bolts with extra threads exposed that may cause a problem. It worked well for me..

I have used them for several applications, they work well in all apps I have tried. They work well for washing and drying the car, although a good cotton towel still dries the car better.

I used it right out of the bag and it was good for me. Some people wash it and dry it, but it worked from day 1 for me.

It does work better if pre-soaked. I've used it dry but it's not as effective.

I have used it in the washing machine once so far; I tied it inside a pillowcase and and it worked fine. However, I wouldn't recommend putting it in the dryer if you use a fabric conditioner bar instead of regular dryer sheets. Mine came out of the pillow case and scraped a bunch fabric softener goop onto my hat. Not a fun cleanup.

I used it for showers while back packing. I think it dries fairly quick. It depends on the moisture in the air, but I was really impressed, I didn't notice how long it took to dry but I also never noticed it being damp for too long.

I use mine on dry hair after I blow dry my washed hair. It works well for me.
