I just had to share my new wash method. I now wash and rinse the car, spray the car with Wax-As-U-Dry, gently rinse the excess, then blow dry with my handheld leaf blower. I leave just a little beaded water to finish the job with a single towel. It works much like the automatic car washes, with the spray wax, rinse and blow dry as you exit. I even use the blower on the door jams, with the doors pulled open. The blower does great at getting the water out from the mirrors, hatch, and other places where the water would drip after the car was dry.
As an owner of dark blue cars for many years, I was always looking for a way to give a nice finish after washing the car. Back in the day, I would usually have to wax the car to make it look the way I wanted. Just washing and drying would always leave me streaky and somehow I was never quite satisfied. Then I found Wax-As-U-Dry. I just used a natural chamois to dry the car after spraying the Wax-As-U-Dry and then I would follow with a nice towel to finish it off. I loved how the Wax-As-U-Dry would get all creamy and nice on the chamois and it really left a great shine. Of course I also still did a good hand wax on occasion, but the Wax-As-U-Dry became my routine for every wash.
Now, I've added the rinse step and blow dry, to make it much faster and I only use a single towel to get the last little bits. With no towel, you can get some spots. It just takes the slightest remaining moisture and a quick once over with the towel to get a very nice job. I also love how the blower gets the water out of all the nooks and crannies.
