1.I dry the entire exterior first, drive it around the block and then 2. dry the door jambs,trunk , inside gas tank. 3. Dry the wheels last. Whats your guys drying order or method and I use a Watersprite to dry my car.

1. Flood the car with water so most of it sheets off.

2. Use the CA waterblade and give the car the once over (used wisely, it can be your best friend.)

3. Follow up with 100% cotton towel.

4. Open up all doors, hood, trunk, and gas tank lid, then use a hand towel to dry off the jambs and such.

5. Dry wheels.

6. Clean and buff windows.

What Jason said



Actually - after the waterblade step, I like to use the Absorber for the majority of the water that's been left behind by the waterblade. Keep in mind - you've got precious minutes before the remaining water dries and leaves spots, so you've got to act fast!

i start off by:



1. going round the motor with a mf towel - getting all surface water out



2. getting in to the cracks where water tends to get in i.e under the door handles, boot, under the grille, gas flap





3. go over it again to ensure vechile is 100% dry



4. wax/polish

Big Blue, then follow with Charisma or MF. Windows come clean with no streaks with BB. Viper MF for door jambs and terry shop cloths for tires and wheels.

Anybody used it? If so, how did you like it and did you use BFWD or similar afterwards?

Thanks in advance.

I used it once from a friend the Black Box, it lasted about 2-3 weeks the most, but if that is all you got then use it to protect the paint for now. I recommend BFWD which will out last the TWBB and top it with Collinite paste wax during the winter months.
