    Drying after the rinse

    After the final rinse of your car after washing it how long do you wait before you start drying it off?

    That`s what I do too. I was just wondering how long you let the water run off.

    Same here, I tried to dry as fast as possible without sacrificing technique.

    California water blade to help sheet of large portions of water, then dry immediately.

    I give the car a blow job....with my rigid tool..gawd this is getting dirty :lol

    I blow off the water with the blower detachment from my ridig vac ... (minds out of the gutters kids - no one wants burnt lips from tail pipes) I do it right after I final rinse then follow up with Waffle Weave.
    You have activated my special ability....
