Just wondering what you guys use to dry your 7s
i currently use a chamoise or however you use it.

usually leaves marks and gets dried out after i use it A FEW TIMES

how do you guys dry your chamois after they are used so they dont dry out and crumble?

 

Squeegee & and a single towel:

just make sure you dont get any dirt on the blade.

I dont know what you mean by dry out and cruble, they dry out, then you wet them down before you use them next time. are you trying to use your chamois without re-wetting them first.

 

The Absorber. Just wash it after every use and leave it a bit damp in the tube.

or ANY microfiber drying towel. I personally wouldn't use a "Squeegee"

 

Synthetic chamois works great for me. I had two "California Blades" and I find they do a crappy job and take longer.

 

I used to always use a shammy but lately I find that I use a water blade too, they work really well. And the shammy gets what it doesn't.

 

After a touchless wash, take it for a rip and get to a "reasonable speed" and its done. Some minor drops on the rear hatch and such, just blot dry.

I'm next to a freeway so its easier for me to get to speed.

Also a good wax on the car makes the water fall off.

 

cheap, available anywhere, and effective:

Buy SHAMWOW, you'll be saying WOW everytime.

 

leaf blower and any towel I can find

 

a LEAF BLOWER?!?

 

Microfiber drying towel to dry all my cars.

 

I used to own and operate a detailing business (for about 5 years) and I still have a few of these left over.

IMO, these are best chamois you can buy.

leafblower+micro fiber towel

 

+100000

 

Yep. I dried all three of my cars with the Griot blade and a single towel. Not a water spot in sight. Love the that blade. I will say I tried a cheap blade from a local store and it was crap. If I hadn't tried the Griot version, I would have been put off from them as well.

 

squeegee, leaf blower, microfiber towel...

leaf blower to blow excess water left by the squeegee and for the cracks water get in that a towel miss.. ex mirrors/ gas lid

 

I use compressed air then a absorber or microfiber towel.
DO NOT USE A SQUEEGIE! unless you dont give a shi* about your paint job.

 

I use a natural chamois...seems to do great but lot's of people have told me to switch to the waffle microfiber towels. I use 'fast wax' after anyways and that cleans up anything left behind.
