Silicon Blade -

why are there so many different things? AHHH!!
Chamois - Leather material used for drying only.

Microfiber- Cloth used for drying or polishing or wax removal.
Textured so the peaks and valleys grab onto dust and dirt.

Terry Towel - A terry cloth towel (cotton with little loops) used for washing or drying

Lambswool - ?? I don't have any so can't comment

Silicone Blade - AKA California water blade; a silicone squeegee used to speed drying. I've seen these, but been afraid to use them as I'm worried about creating scratches.

There are so many products because the car detailing suppliers want more of your money!
