The Royal Dryness 1400 GSM in the 40 × 40 cm format is a compact microfibre drying towel designed for precision detailing of bodywork, wheels, trim and hard-to-reach surfaces. With a weight of 1400 GSM, the towel offers exceptional absorbency in a manageable format that fits in a pocket or glove box.
The Twisted Pile structure covers both sides of the towel and helps draw water rapidly into the fibre, reducing friction against the paint surface. The towel is suitable for use on sensitive surfaces such as Piano Black, matte paint and paint protection film. See more Royal Pads products for detailing in our range.
The 40 × 40 cm format is designed for situations where a full-size drying towel is too cumbersome – for example when drying door jambs, grilles and wheel arches. The towel retains its softness and absorbency after repeated washes and leaves no microfibre residue on paintwork or glass.
What is Royal Dryness 1400 GSM and why choose it?
Royal Dryness 1400 GSM is a professional microfibre drying towel with a double-sided Twisted Pile structure, manufactured by Royal Pads for detailers who require safe and efficient drying without the risk of scratching. The 1400 GSM weight places this towel in the heaviest segment of microfibre products for vehicle care, meaning it can absorb many times its own weight in water.
Compared with standard towels of lower GSM, the Royal Dryness 1400 GSM needs to be wrung out less frequently, making the work faster and reducing the risk of the towel becoming contaminated with dirt from the surface. The soft, paint-safe edges make it suitable for all paint types, including sensitive surface treatments.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Royal Dryness 1400 GSM from Royal Pads safe to use on matte paint and Piano Black?
Yes. The Royal Dryness 1400 GSM from Royal Pads is designed to be safe on sensitive surfaces such as matte paint, Piano Black and paint protection film. The soft, paint-safe edges and the low friction of the Twisted Pile structure help minimise the risk of scratching when used correctly. The towel should always be clean and free from contamination before use on such surfaces.
What GSM and dimensions does the Royal Dryness from Royal Pads have?
The Royal Dryness from Royal Pads in this variant has a weight of 1400 g/m² (GSM) and dimensions of 40 × 40 cm. The 1400 GSM weight means the towel can absorb many times its own weight in water, reducing the need to wring it out during use. The 40 × 40 cm format is designed for precision drying of jambs, wheels and hard-to-reach details.
How does the Royal Dryness 1400 GSM from Royal Pads differ from other microfibre drying towels?
The Royal Dryness 1400 GSM from Royal Pads differs from standard towels through its double-sided Twisted Pile structure and the high weight of 1400 GSM, which is considerably heavier than most microfibre drying towels on the market that typically range between 400 and 800 GSM. The combination of high absorbency, paint-safe edges and a compact 40 × 40 cm format makes it suitable for detail work where a full-size towel is too cumbersome. The towel is also constructed to retain its softness and absorbency after repeated washes, provided that fabric softeners and rinse aids are avoided. We offer more microfibre products for drying and detailing for a variety of applications.
Care Instructions
Wash the Royal Dryness 1400 GSM from Royal Pads in a washing machine at a maximum of 40 °C after each use. Use a specialist microfibre detergent that restores the fibre's softness and absorbency. Never use fabric softener, rinse aid or bleach – these clog the Twisted Pile structure and permanently reduce the towel's absorbency.
