When you’re elbow-deep in a diesel engine or wrestling with stubborn sealants, the last thing you want is a messy cleanup that eats into your time.
Enter Dyna-Wipes, the heavy-duty, pre-moistened cleaning towel designed for mechanics who demand performance and convenience.
Unlike ordinary shop rags or harsh chemical cleaners, Dyna-Wipes combine a powerful cleaning solution with a rugged towel that traps grease and grime—so it doesn’t smear back onto your hands or tools. Just pull, wipe, and go. No water required.
Dyna-Wipes come from Verax Chemical Co. of Snohomish, Washington, a trusted name in industrial cleaning solutions since 1913. Verax specializes in products that save time and reduce reliance on harsh chemicals—earning a reputation for durability and innovation.
At The Utility Expo trade show held in Louisville, Kentucky October 7-9, 2025, Service Truck Magazine met with Warren Curkendall, President of Verax, who handed this writer a single Dyna-Wipe towel and asked if I would try and wipe away the spray paint, nail polish, ink, and open gear lube from the piece of substrate.
Without the need for elbow grease, the Dyna-Wipes towel cleaned through the mess (it had been applied hours before) like a hot knife through butter—quickly and efficiently. It was quite impressive.
Why Mechanics Love Them
- Versatility: Removes grease, oil, adhesives, urethane sealants, dried paint, permanent marker, and even Black Jack roof cement.
- Skin-Friendly: Infused with aloe and vitamin E, these wipes clean without leaving hands dry or cracked.
- Dual-Texture Option: For tough jobs, the “Muscle” version offers a textured side for extra scrubbing power.
Two Options for Every Job
- Yellow Packet – DYNA-WIPES: Features a smooth white towel for general heavy-duty cleaning.
- Blue Packet – DYNA-WIPES Muscle: Includes a red, dual-textured towel for added scrubbing strength. Both versions use the same powerful cleaning solution—the only difference is the towel.
