O'Reilly MF Waffle Weave Towel

I've been trying to find a good microfiber towel, and I hear that waffle weave is the way to go. There's a 9 sq foot WW towel at O'Reilly's for 10$ which I think is a steal! My question is, will this towel work out fine or should I go with something at DI? It's all microfiber at the end right???Thanks

No, all microfiber is NOT created equal. That being said I'm not familiar with the towel at O'Reilly, it may be the exact same one that DI sells only rebranded. Try it and report.

Would one O'reilly towel be sufficient enough to wash the whole car???

Most people don't use towels to wash their cars, try a wash mitt.
If you meant to say "dry" the whole car, it may be enough, if you "sheet" the water off first. You need a good coat of wax or sealant present to do this efficiently.

I just bought the Viking towel but it was actually 7 sq. ft. I've always had issues with water stains and hated drying cars. Now with some sheeting and this towel I dried most of the car in just minutes.
