Sheeting the water makes all the difference

Since I've gotten in detailing in the past few months I've always just sprayed down my cars with the nozzle. It took me forever to dry them using multiple MF's. I've read a few times about removing the nozzle and just let the water run as it creates a sheet of water. I didn't think it made much of a difference so I never bothered. Last weekend I removed the nozzle, let the water sheet onto the car and low and behold there was very little water left on my car. I only had to use 1 big MF for the major water and quickly followed it with a smaller MF to completely dry it. No more having to use two or three big MF's to get it dry. Sheeting and letting the water run off makes a big difference when it comes to drying in both time and minimal MF's.

agreed :up also, when you use the sheet/flood method, you help reduce less contact/passes on the finish as you're drying...

Hey Allen-



You're right. I never thought of that. BTW, I've been playing with the PC lately and I think I'm finally going to give it a full run hopefully this weekend or next weekend.

sweet!! let me know if you need samples of anything... :)
 
Try sheeting the water than then cruising around your block. Itll get rid of all the water in the cracks that cant be reached even with you dry your car normally
 
Is there any water left on the car after going around the block? I noticed when I sheeted the water it left the right amount of water.
 
driving around the block really isn't a good idea, try using a leaf blower. i use the leaf blower and follow up with a microfiber towel to get any leftover water in/around the cracks, emblems, air vents, wiper blades, wheels/tires, side mirrors, inside door jams, headlight/tail lights, etc...
