Truth. The Sidekick is the perfect drying companion. Quick to deploy, very effective at all the seams/emblems/trim/wheels, and one handed operation. I'm a rinseless junkie and still find it to be a great tool.
It's also great for small clean up jobs like the lawn mower and my wood working...
Its was cold today but dry. I stopped at the coin wash to pressure wash the grime off. My truck cleaned up pretty well. It still needs to be washed, but it looks a lot better than last winter when it was just wax. I feel a lot better with a coating on over all the waxes and sealants I've used...
Yeah. We've had a couple of storms in the last week. Snow and ice still stick the same. Hopefully I'll get a chance to wash later this week and maybe clean up will be easier

Like most who have done posted, I'm 95%+ rinse less. It's just faster and less messy. I have a metro sidekick that I still use when drying since water still gets behind cracks, emblems, etc. I have dedicated towels for the wheels after I'm done washing the body. Every 6-8 weeks I might get...
I keep a bucket with some microfiber detergent and a couple of ounces of vinegar for pre soak. Once I'm done with a towel it goes into the bucket, until I have enough for a load. I've found keeping them wet and adding vinegar to the rinse cycle does a good job with keeping my towels clean
