We Say
Drying is one of those stages of car care that can easily be overlooked, yet it is also one of the points where unnecessary contact with the paintwork can introduce fine scratches and swirl marks. After carefully washing your vehicle, the last thing you want is to compromise that work with a towel that struggles to absorb water or requires repeated passes across the surface.
The Koch-Chemie Pro Drying Towel has been developed to make this final stage both safer and more efficient. With an impressive 950 GSM construction and a premium 70/30 polyester and polyamide microfibre blend, it offers the combination of softness and absorbency that we look for in a high-quality drying towel.
The high-density knitted microfibre construction is particularly important. Rather than simply moving water around the surface, the towel is designed to absorb and retain moisture within its fibres. This allows you to remove substantial amounts of water with minimal effort, reducing the number of times you need to pass the towel over the paintwork.
At 50 x 80 cm, it also strikes a sensible balance between coverage and usability. It is large enough to handle bigger panels efficiently without becoming excessively cumbersome, particularly when working around smaller or more intricate areas of a vehicle.
Another detail worth highlighting is the 70/30 fibre blend. The polyester provides structure and durability, while the higher polyamide content contributes to the towel's softness and ability to absorb water. Combined with its rounded corners, this makes it particularly well suited to delicate clear coats and carefully maintained paint finishes.
In our opinion, a good drying towel is just as important as a quality wash mitt when it comes to preserving the condition of your paintwork. The Koch-Chemie Pro Drying Towel gets the important fundamentals right: excellent absorbency, a soft construction and a practical size. For anyone serious about maintaining their vehicle properly, it is a worthwhile addition to the wash kit.

Manufactured using a high-quality 70% polyester and 30% polyamide microfibre blend, the towel features a dense 950 GSM knitted construction that provides excellent water absorption while remaining exceptionally soft against painted surfaces.
Its generous 50 x 80 cm dimensions provide plenty of surface area for drying larger body panels, helping reduce the number of passes required to remove standing water. The rounded corners further contribute to its paint-friendly design.
Key benefits:
✓ Premium 950 GSM microfibre construction for excellent water absorption

For the safest possible drying process, we recommend thoroughly washing and rinsing the vehicle before using the towel. A quality shampoo and wash mitt from our car shampoo and wash accessories range will help ensure the surface is clean before drying.
The Pro Drying Towel also works particularly well alongside products from our quick detailing spray range, with suitable products providing additional lubrication during the drying process.
To keep your towel in excellent condition, use an appropriate microfibre detergent from our microfibre care range.

How To Use
1) Wash and rinse the vehicle:
Thoroughly wash the vehicle using a suitable car shampoo and wash mitt. Rinse away all remaining shampoo and contamination before drying.
2) Remove excess water:
Where possible, use a gentle stream of water or filtered air to remove standing water from larger panels, mirrors and panel gaps.
3) Dry the paintwork:
Lay the Koch-Chemie Pro Drying Towel onto the wet surface and gently draw it across the panel, allowing the microfibre to absorb the water. Avoid applying unnecessary pressure.
4) Continue around the vehicle:
Work systematically from the upper panels downwards, using clean sections of the towel as required.
5) Finish remaining areas:
Use a smaller microfibre towel where necessary to remove remaining water from intricate areas, door shuts and other difficult-to-reach sections.
Care Instructions:
✓ Machine wash according to the towel's care label
✓ Wash separately from cotton and lint-producing fabrics
✓ Use a dedicated microfibre detergent where possible
✓ Avoid fabric softeners and bleach
✓ Allow to dry thoroughly before storing
✓ Keep the towel clean and free from grit or contamination
Important: Never use a drying towel that has been dropped onto a dirty surface without thoroughly cleaning it first. Even the softest microfibre can cause marring if abrasive contamination becomes trapped within its fibres.
