Drying truck/water filter?

[fadetoblack188]

What is the best way to dry a truck? limiting swirl marks. I just got a black truck and i am going crazy already!

Also, does anyone use an inline water filter for there hose when they wash there car? to eliminate water spots... which one do you use?

I use a car squeegee and follow up with good towels

I found with my Mustang that a quick spray with instant detailer made it dry off with far less microfiber - car contact.

And I do "Flood" with low pressure water from hose....Amazing how water actually helps dry a vehicle...pulls a majority of the water right off...And I use a Master Blaster blower....warm filtered air and it dries the dually in now time...great for where water collects when washing too...mirrors, door handles, etc.

what i use on my black truck

drying towel from chemical guys to get 90% of the water off right away

then go back with a standard microfiber to finish drying (get the last 10%) off the truck

then i use a stihl cb600 backpack blower....go around the truck 2 times with it

then go back and finish with the standard microfiber towel

finish with hybrid v7 detailer/sealant from chemical guys

(fyi never ever use a dry towel to "dry" your truck. Always get is wet and ring it out first)

dry towel will scratch

Quick and dirty process for safe and efficient drying:

1) Use the pool/sheet rinse method to get the majority of water off the surface
2) Master Blaster/Sidekick/electric leaf blower to remove water from cracks/crevices
3) Detail Spray to aid in the drying process/neutralize water spots along with a Great White Drying Towel
4) Final wipedown with another drying towel or plush microfiber and any additional Detail Spray as necessary

so you guys are saying spray the quick detailer on while the car is still wet.. then wipe dry

BINGO!

It helps neutralize and dissolved minerals in your water, helps the water evaporate faster, and adds some shine to the paint, all in one move!

Sheet rinse is shown around 8:30 in this video:

I use the great white drying towel and detail spray from Adams Polishes. Check out their videos on drying. I don't have a leaf blower or any blower.
