Yeah, the part I hate most about washing my car is the drying part. I don't know what to use to dry my car...I have the small yellow microfiber towels you can get at Costco but those seem to leave small hairs if they're used to dry wet surfaces, so I don't use them and have to use some not -so-absorbant 100% cotton towels. Where do you get this Big Blue Towel
. (How many coats of wax do you put on at once?)

I've been using Mother's California Gold, the liquid, on my last 4 vehicles, I'm pleased with the results! I use a wax applicator pad.

EicarG35, Another good drying tool is the Absorber. Looks like a chamois (sp?), and available at most auto parts stores for less than $10. I have one in my Ram and one in my G. Both are over 5 years old, and still very absorbent. Whatever you use, do NOT let it get dirty. Most swirl marks, scratches, etc come from grit on the washing mitt, cloth, etc, or from the drying material. Microfiber towels, Absorbers, etc, can be washed in a washer.
