Huge and flexible - works well, easy to use
Much easier to use, and much more effective than the combined squeegee/scraper things I've always had in the past. It's large, and clears the screens of water in a few swipes.

Ultimate car cleaning tool - must have item!
This blade is fantastic - much simpler and easier than a chamois leather but has the same effect - the trick is not to let the water dry on the car before you flick it off with the blade this will avoid streaks. (NB if you find the car is dry before you get to the flicking stage put more water on it!) Simple tool but saves a lot of time and effort. Easy to use, wash your car with shampoo/wax combo as normal, then rinse with water and simply flick off the water with the blade. I am now buying these for all of my family as we spend so much money going to the hand car wash! You can't go wrong with one of these. You can buy some with a handle, however I prefer this one as the handle is the length of the blade and I think more versatile.

It is effectively a California Water Blade, but much bigger
That's right, it works just like a California Water Blade, great for getting water off windows and bodywork on your vehicle. Only problem I find is that the blade seems too wide. Wider than I'm used to anyway. Does work, but the edge isn't flat and I'm tempted to cut the blade down to be closer to the handle.

Speed up drying the car!
This was purchased to try and reduce the time it takes to hand wash the car. In the winter after rinsing off water just sits on the surface so after seeing one of these used to remove the excess I thought I would try it. One of my concerns was scratching the paint work.This product is actually a little larger than I imagined at 315mm long and 97mm wide. The handle is ridged hard plastic and a good shape to grip, The blade is silicone material with a slight lip along the bottom edge which quickly removes the water. It seems to work great on the bigger surfaces that are not too contoured.I am pleased with my purchase but if you are concerned like I was try it in a small inconspicuous area first.

A solid investment
This is a very good product over all.I have a Tesla Model S and am constantly scared of scratching the paint so of course I was sceptical when getting this product. After using it a few times after watching the car it is brilliant.One of the main problems for me is washing the car and then coming back and having water marks all over the car. Some times to the point where it looks just as dirty again. This product dose what it says it dose and works amazingly.Highly recommend for people who have hard water in there aria or people who are in a hurry and can't wait for there car to dry.

Removes water like a charm
I bought it because I was moving to a bigger car and drying one after its washed is a bit of a work.This tool removes most of the water really quickly. It makes it easy to dry most of the car in less time. I still use a Kent microfibre drying towel in conjunction with this, because there is some water left (which is nicely cleaned without traces with the towel) and then there are some areas where this blade cannot be effective.Beware: make sure the car is properly washed. If there are solid particles on it, you can scratch your car. Better use on an old car you can afford to scratch, or if you are not a finicky car detailer.Worth the money invested, if it lasts for a couple of years and not crack up in the meantime.

A great way to dry your car
I bought this flexiblade for two reasons:1.) To remove a significant amount of surface water from the car to prevent smears when the water dries2.) To dry the car quicker prior to polishingThe first point was the most important to me, seeing as it's summer, as I hate it when you work hard to clean your car and up with smears and marks on the paint from when the water has pooled and dried. Not any more!The flexiblade was £5.49 at time of writing. The item has a solid plastic handle with a silicone blade attached to it. The end of the silicone blade is a "T" shape rather than a point, as this helps scoop the water up when wiping. It is critical that your car is as spotless as possible, if there's any dirt or grit left on the paint work then this will embed in the silicone blade and leave a nice scratch across your paint work.My only complaint is the rigid plastic handle. This makes the blade very difficult to use on surfaces which are not flat. For example, the bonnet of my car has a raised centre section with small, curved slopes leading to the edge of the bonnet. These curved slopes are very difficult to dry using this silicone blade as the blade will only work on a flat. If the handle were flexible then I'm positive that the blade would work to the contour of the bonnet. This isn't a deal breaker as this is a small section of my car, but might be more of an issue for those who have more aggressive contours on their car!In short, a great device which helps speed up the drying of your car, but bear in mind that it will struggle with any surface which is not significantly flat.

Easy to use
Works great but you must ensure that all dirt/grit is washed off before use
