Airforce Masterblaster then whats left Adams drying towel. Remember the more you touch your paint the more chances you have to get micro scratches and swirls marks.

This is what I use 1 swipe and its dry to the touch...
Its like a water magnet!


Merely lay it flat on the car and watch the water disappear!
Best thing ive used yet... It worked espescially well at the Monte Nats as we had a cpl overnites of rain.. It worked fast and easy.
I got mine at Oreilys.

I run water straight out of the hose over the car to get rid of water beads/excess water. Microfiber towels for drying.

Update with a photo.

Hey, as long as it works right Ken? It does work pretty good right? You would only be a victim of the Infomercial if it didn't work.

I have the Coba Guzzler waffle weave mf. I like using it because its big, making it easy to dry wide surfaces in one wipe.
