This is an awesome towel...however, it only gets my Accord about 90% dry. I need to go over with a second water magnet to get it completely dry. This is with a polished and NXT-waxed Accord and the sheeting water method for rinsing. The car is still very slick from the NXT and water sheets very well.

My minivan requires 3 towels.

I plan on picking up 2 more 3packs from ADS (what a great price!!!!) But I would love to see a water magnet that was at least two or three times the size. It's easier to deal with 1 vs 3 towels...actually for me, 5 since I use 2 for my Accord and 3 for my minivan.

Have you tried the water magnets from the Marine line. They are a bit bigger and might just be enough to finish off your ride. Marine Water Magnet. (http://meguiars.com/?boat-rv-accessories/Maine_Water-Magnet-Drying-Towel)

Hmm...that's a thought. Never knew they had one. Is the only difference between the two the size?

ADS is out of stock at the moment but it's a pretty good price compared with other brands.

I am pretty sure that, that is the only difference. I saw a picture showing the two side by side. I will see if I can find it.

I have the blue marine line water magnet and I can dry my wife's ford free star mini van with just one towel. If you use it the way that the directions say it works perfectly.
