Who uses Sham Wow on their car?

Yeah yeah yeah...I know you guys make fun of the guy a lot, but it does kind of work. Yes, I bought it, but the one I bought is called Shammy not Sham Wow but it is the samething. To those of you who thinks or said that it does not work, the trick is to fold it in half atleast 2 times. That will give it a lot more suction. I think it will work a lot better than the towels we use to dry our cars, but the questions is will it scratch your car? PS: It is made in Germany like our Bimmers.

shamwow is such a failed product... use waffle weave or chamois.. I personally like chamois better.

Leaf blowers FTW.
Chamois works OK but it tends to leave streaks on the car.
I have to admit I quite like the Cali water blade--but you better be darn sure both the car and the water blade are absolutely clean.

Sham Wow saved me!!

My condom broke during intercourse and she wasn't on the pill! Luckily, I simply pressed the Shamwow against her vagina and voila, all taken care of! Thanks, Shamwow!
