VIKING V+ Premium Microfiber Drying Towel - Thick 1200GSM

In this review the VIKING V+ Premium Microfiber Drying Towel is examined for car enthusiasts and professional detailers who want a reliable, plush drying cloth. The bottom line: this 24 in x 36 in, 1200GSM twisted loop towel delivers outstanding absorbency and a soft hand that reduces the risk of surface marring, making it a strong choice for anyone who wants a high-performance drying towel as part of their car detailing kit.

Key Features

• Double-ply microfiber: The dual-layer construction increases water transport so a single pass pulls more water from paint, glass, and trim.
• 1200GSM thickness: Super thick pile provides exceptional absorbency and holds a lot of water before needing wringing or replacement.
• Twisted loop pile: The 6mm pile height balances usability and performance while reducing the chance of snagging on trim or emblems.
• Infinity Edge construction: Internal overlock stitching secures the entire border so only soft microfiber contacts the surface and the edge stays durable over time.
• Additional yarn softening: A yarn softening process gives the towel a luxurious hand feel and consistent softness across the whole towel.
• Ultra-wicking properties: The fabric quickly draws water up from the surface so drying is faster and streaking is minimized.

Who It's For

The VIKING V+ towel suits car owners who wash their vehicles at home and want a towel that feels plush yet performs. It is also appropriate for detailers who need a large, absorbent towel for drying paintwork, glass, and trim without applying pressure that could cause micro-scratches.

Those who need extremely compact or quick-drying solutions for travel camping or who prefer a foam squeegee for water removal may want a different tool; this towel prioritizes absorbency and a gentle touch over ultra-compact packability.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• High absorbency thanks to 1200GSM double-ply microfiber for fewer passes when drying.
• Soft, consistent hand from the yarn softening process helps protect paint and glass.
• Infinity Edge with internal overlock stitching prevents rough edges from contacting surfaces.
• Large 24 in x 36 in size covers more area so drying is faster on bigger vehicles.

Cons

• Because it is very thick, it can be bulky when saturated and may require wringing or multiple towels for very large washes.
• Not intended to replace dedicated quick-dry travel towels if space and weight are primary concerns.
