How do you all dry a car with no wax on it. I have an absorber and guzzler, but I was wondering about drying it without swirling the paint . It takes me so long to dry a car with no wax on it

Maybe sheeting the water and then the guzzler and absorber for a bone dry finish

Why doesn't your car have wax on it?

Haha. Most cars do not have wax on them. Most people are not autogeeks.

Just dry it like you normally would. If your drying technique is solid the wash process is more of a swirl risk.

I know I was making a joke.

Yeah just use a towel. Maybe mist it with some qd to add lubricity.

A blower of some sort would be best followed by spot drying with a waffle weave

If you have a QD, use it as a drying aid, spray 1-2 mists on the panel or towel and wipe dry.

I spray some Pinnacle waterless wash cos of the carnauba while the car is still wet.

Then I dry like this

IMO opinion it adds some extra shine and I'm sure the carnauba helps protect the paint.

Super quick spray wax.


(I have the same drying towel)

You are quite the character. I don't think Bill appreciates your sly sense of humor.

Great suggestions so far. You could also go with something like D156, which works great when applied to a wet vehicle and adds protection and slickness as you dry.

Is D156 just a spray wax or a WW as well?
