Meet the Founder
Cole Knoblauch
Aircraft have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My dad is a pilot, and some of my earliest memories are around the hangar learning what it really takes to keep an aircraft looking sharp and staying protected.
I started young, stripping and waxing de-ice boots, and over time I worked my way into the more demanding parts of aircraft detailing, particularly brightwork. If you’ve ever chased that deep, mirror like shine, you know it isn’t quick, and it definitely isn’t forgiving. It took years of practice to perfect the process, but once I did, people noticed.
As my experience grew, so did my standards. I learned how to protect and enhance every inch of an aircraft from exterior surfaces to the tiny details most people overlook. And I still approach every job the same way: I’m not finished until I’m completely satisfied with the result.
Built from a real problem in the hangar
One of the biggest problems I ran into was drying. Standard drying towels work okay, but most are designed for automotive use. In a hangar environment, I found myself constantly worrying about dropping a towel or setting it down and contaminating it mid-job. So I asked a simple question: What if the towel could stay exactly where you need it? That idea became The MagDry™ - a drying towel with built-in magnetic anchors for better control, more stability, and cleaner workflow. It grips when you need it, hangs when you’re done, and helps reduce the chances of slipping, dragging, or contaminating the towel during use.
