Drying, polishing, ceramic coating, glass and quick detailer towels from The Rag Company, Maxshine, GTECHNIQ and Optimum. Stocked in Australia and shipped Australia-wide.
Detailing Shed stocks microfibre for drying, polishing and buffing, ceramic coatings, glass, quick detailers and general cleaning, plus wash mitts and coating applicators. The towel you use matters as much as the product you put on it, because most swirl marks are put into paint by the cloth rather than the chemical.

The Rag Company Eagle Edgeless 500
500 GSM, edgeless, 40cm x 40cm. Plush enough for paint, versatile across most jobs.
1600 GSM duo twisted loop at 73cm x 73cm, the highest GSM drying towel we stock.
Nine 40cm x 40cm towels in one pack. The cheapest way to build a usable set.
420 GSM 70/30 dual pile, plush one side and shorter nap on the other.
Maxshine 300GSM Glass Towel 5 Pack
Purpose-made 300 GSM glass towels, five per pack so there is always a clean one.
Ceramic Coating Towel Edgeless Pearl
41cm x 41cm, made for levelling coatings and removing high spots.
What microfibre towel is best for drying a car?
A twisted-loop or hybrid weave drying towel of 1000 GSM or higher. These hold the most water with the least pressure on the paint, so you dry in fewer passes. Browse
drying towels.
What towel should I use for polishing?
A short to medium pile edgeless buffing towel, typically 300 to 500 GSM. Enough plush to lift residue without marring, and no stitched border to drag across fresh paint. Shop
polishing cloths.
What towel should I use for glass?
A waffle-weave or low-pile glass towel. Both grip residue without leaving lint, which is what causes streaking. Use two towels, one to clean and one to buff dry. Shop
glass cloths.
What towel should I use for ceramic coatings?
Two different items. A suede or no-soak applicator to apply, because standard microfibre absorbs a lot of expensive product, then a dedicated coating towel to level it and remove high spots. Shop
ceramic coating cloths.
Can one microfibre towel be used for everything?
No, and it is the most common mistake we see. Keep separate sets for paint, glass, wheels and interior.
Also worth a look: microfibre and pad care, wash mitts and pads and drying towels.
