I use them for both drying and polishing. I am very pleased with them. One 9 square ft drying towel gets the whole car dry no problem. One 16"X16" polishing cloth does the polishing trick. Only thing I am not sure of is how durable they will be after some washing. I would recommend you give them a try

I love my microfiber towels, and like previously said the only downside is the price. By the way, you can't put them in the dryer after you wash them, they are supposed to hang dry.

I've used them for more than 5 years with *very* little trouble. I keep it put up in between uses, I wash it with the wash mitt just before drying the vehicle, and I watch/use carefully during drying.
If your vehicle is properly cleaned and the blade is properly cleaned, they can be a good drying tool.
