The Rag Company Gauntlet Car Drying Towel - 70/30 Korean Microfiber, Dries Faster Without Scratching, 900gsm, 15x24 inches, Ice Grey/Grey, 2-Pack

Great for after you wash your car. Picks up a lot of water, the car looks good, it is washable, and it is microfiber so it does not leave any scratches. I picked up another to always be sure I have one when I clean my car. This is a must have.

This review is for the 30" x 36" The Gauntlet Microfiber Drying Towel from The Rag Company. I've been using microfiber for years of various qualities and grades, and I have amassed a garage full of car care products over the years. I was looking for the absolute best drying towel that I could find for my car. I wanted something that was plush, extremely absorbent, and had some weight to it so that I could drag it over non-flat surfaces to absorb the water. I also of course wanted something that wasn't going to leave streaks of water behind. I did a lot of searching and going through many reviews. The absolute best drying towel I found was The Gauntlet. It does the job flawlessly. I am able to drag the towel across the car and absorb all the water without leaving streaks in just a single pass. I had no problem drying my car with just this single 30" x 36" towel. The plushness made it easy to dry vents, slats, and wipe down edges. I also very much like that each side is a different color. It is a nice convenient feature as you can keep track of which side you have been using so far. The towel felt like it weight about 5 lbs after I was done drying my car. This towel could have absorbed more water, as no matter how hard I squeezed or tried to ring it out not a single drop of water came out. I have seen multiple review where people were able to dry their entire car with just one of the smaller 20" x 30" sizes, and I fully believe it. I recommend consider the size and weight after it absorbs water, and go with the size you prefer. Pretty much all microfiber will work better after the first wash or two. This is so that any potential loose dyes come out, removes any potential residue/contaminants from manufacturing/shipping, and also opens up the microfibers. This will increase its cleaning and absorbency and reduce the potential for any dye transfer. Always be sure to wash microfiber only with other microfiber and to follow all directions. Microfiber gets ruined if you use fabric softener or if you dry it with heat that it can't withstand.

This towel is the perfect size for mid size trucks and SUVs. A little too small for full sized. However the quality is absolutely amazing. Super soft and absorbent. The towl edges are nice too almost as if they doubled up the microfiber so it won't make lint or unravel after use. Would not worry about this scratching my vehicle at all with how plush it is. When your done it is easy to clean just throw it in the wash and your good. Seems to be really well made for years of use and being from a name brand I wouldn't worry about it.

These drying towels are some of the best I have used for detailing my truck. The fibers are very soft and extremely absorbent, I am always amazed how well they continue to dry my truck even with heavy use. Compared to other towels I have used, I have come to appreciate the different colors on each side which makes it very easy to keep track of which side has already been used while working around the truck and refolding. I use two of these every time I dry my truck but I would think that just one of them will easily dry an average sized care with no issue. Working on vehicle paint is a place where skimping out on towels can cause more work or worse cause scratching on the paint but these are great quality and holding up like new after many washes.

I bought this towel to dry my SUV, and while it works really well and doesn’t leave any scratches, it does get soaked about halfway through the job. Once it’s saturated, it starts leaving streaks behind. For a mid-sized car, this size would be perfect, but if you’re drying a full-size SUV or truck, I’d recommend going with the larger version. The quality is great, just need more coverage for bigger vehicles.

I was really surprised at how well they absorbed water, I purchased the 12 by12 size and this worked well for drying the sides of my car, larger sizes tend to touch the ground while using!👍

I use The Rag Company Gauntlet drying towel on my 2025 GMC Sierra AT4, which has full ceramic coating and partial PPF — and this towel has become an essential part of my wash routine. I’ve tried others, but nothing matches the water absorption, softness, and streak-free performance of the Gauntlet. It soaks up water effortlessly without dragging, scratching, or leaving behind lint. One 20”x30” towel is usually enough to dry the entire truck, especially when paired with good hydrophobic behavior from coatings or products like GYEON WetCoat. It also holds up extremely well over time — even after multiple washes with P&S Rags to Riches, it still performs like new. If you care about your paint and want the best drying towel on the market, don’t overthink it — just get this one.

Extremely absorbent. Dried 85-90% of the entire car without leaving water streaks behind. I finished up what little bit was left with my chamois. Well worth the price. I will most likely wind up with a second for our other car. Get one, you will not be disappointed.

Die Tücher kamen schnell und gut verpackt. Alle 3 sind super verarbeitet. Nutze sie gern für die Türeinstiege oder für kleine trocken arbeiten. Klare Empfehlung.

Not much upto the mark. Its not much recommended.

Amazing drying towel. Could easily do 2 vehicles with one use. Absorbs all water with a quick pass, very effective and soft so no worries about damaging paintwork. I would be careful with washing this product or using to dry off product as it may clog up the towel and reduce its absorption over time. I wash with fragrance free washing machine tablets at low heat and spins and leave out to dry in the sun to ensure absorption remains intact.
