§ 02 — Why 1300 GSM

More fiber. Less paint.

GSM is how much microfiber you get per square meter. More fiber means more water absorbed in one pass — and fewer drags across your paint.

Most towels at the gas station run 200–400 GSM. They smear. They drag. They're scratching your clear coat every time you dry.

The Nova is 1300. Three times the pile. Soaks 7× its weight in water. One pass, one towel.

§ 03 — Built by

Two enthusiasts,
one garage.

Jacob's been detailing modified and exotic cars for eight years. Antanas built the business around it. They started Polaris because the towels they trusted cost $70 and the ones they could afford pilled after a month.

So they spent a year testing weaves with a mill in Taizhou. Rejected seven samples. Picked the one that still looked new after 40 wash cycles. Priced it where their friends could actually buy it.

Every formula, every thread count, every package — approved on their own cars first. If it doesn't earn a spot on the shelf in their garage, it doesn't ship.

The questions we get asked the most.

The Nova measures 24 × 35 inches (60 × 90 cm) — large enough to cover a full panel in a single pass.
GSM measures how dense the microfiber pile is. At 1300 GSM, The Nova holds significantly more water than standard towels, meaning fewer passes and less risk of marring your paint.

★★★★★

Absolutely incredible towel. The 1300 GSM is a game changer on my ceramic coated car. Zero water spots, dried the whole car in two passes.

Marcus T. March 2025
★★★★★

Finally a drying towel that doesn't leave swirls or water spots. Bought two. Polaris just earned a customer for life.

Jordan K. February 2025
★★★★★

These guys actually know cars. Product quality is insane for the price. This is the only towel I use on my GTR.

Tyler M. January 2025
★★★★★

Used this on my blacked out BMW M4 right after a detail. Not a single water spot or streak. Legit the best drying towel I've owned.

Derek S. March 2025
★★★★☆

Really solid towel. Absorbed way more water than I expected for the price. Only reason it's not 5 stars is I wish it came in a bigger size.

Chris A. February 2025
★★★★★

My old towel was leaving micro scratches on my clear coat. Switched to the Nova and the difference is night and day. Should have done this sooner.

Nathan R. March 2025
★★★★★

I detail cars on the side and started using this on client vehicles. Zero complaints. Clients actually ask what towel I'm using now.

Jason L. January 2025
★★★★★

Dried my WRX in literally two passes. Didn't have to wring it out once. The GSM on this thing is no joke.

Brandon W. February 2025
★★★★☆

Good towel, great price. Does exactly what it says. Would like to see more products from Polaris.

Kyle P. March 2025
★★★★★

Ordered on a Friday, used it Sunday. Unreal quality for under $30. This is now a permanent part of my detailing kit.

Ethan M. January 2025
★★★★★

I've tried Chemical Guys, Meguiar's, and a few others. The Nova is genuinely better. Thicker, softer, and way more absorbent.

Ryan C. February 2025
★★★★★

Bought this for my Corvette. Ceramic coated paint shows everything — this towel leaves absolutely nothing behind. Impressed.

Alex T. March 2025
★★★★★

My brother put me onto Polaris. Both of us use it now. The quality speaks for itself. Don't sleep on this brand.

Mike D. January 2025
★★★★☆

Solid build quality, feels premium in hand. Dries fast, no streaks. Took one star off only because shipping took a few extra days.

Connor H. February 2025
★★★★★

Used this on a PPF wrap for the first time and was nervous. Zero issues. Glides right over the film. This is my go-to from now on.
