How do you dry your truck?

70 MPH on the highway

 

I sure do with a cotton towel. I don't like those spots if left to dry on it's own

 

ABSORBER!!!!! The best thing EVER to dry a truck. No sporting and no rubbing.

 

I'll call you Dad if theres a new truck in it for me....

 

Put a coat of wax on it and try again!

 

Absorber. I've been using the same one for the past 10 years and it still looks great. Also, I use Turtle Wax - Wax and Dry. It speeds up the drying process and puts a nice shine on it as well.

 

When I'm not feeling lazy, I use a nice dense terry towel. I saw not lazy because I usually follow that up with some Quick Detailer to remove any dried water residue afterwards that may be visible in random spots.

When I want it done quickly, I use an Absorber.

The Absorber removes more water quicker, but I feel the terry towel is safer, but really depends on my mood as to how far I go, can't lie.

 

A yard blower works good to get the big stuff off, then a sponge or chamois to finish up. I've also switched to warm water and a sponge to clean my windows and other areas when I don't want to wash the entire truck instead of using chemicals.

 

I use a leaf blower..

 

leaf blower or micro fiber towel are the only safe ways to dry without adding swirls...
time to ditch the absorbers

 

^ This!

 

the absorber x100

 

Air hose and blot dry any left over water spots with a microfiber towel.

 

I grab a towel off the bathroom towel rack... dry the truck, and put it back where I found it.
It drives my girlfriend crazy.

Deerskin chamois.

 

go pick up a 'water sprite' worth every penny and you will nver need another one again!! i picked up mine at academy sports and outdoors

 

Cobra Guzzler! Waffle weave does a great job.

 

Meguiars Water Magnet best I have found, if you have some polish on the finish!

absorber. It ripped in half after 3 years of use, but its the best thing that happened. Now i have a small absorber for each hand. Think about it, you can really only dry with one hand. Now i can dry with 2!!

 

I leave carwash and get on freeway and get her up to about 90mph for a few miles. Good to go.
