Re: Water Spots

I use a squeegie as I wash and rinse. After the roof is rinsed, I squeegie. After the driver's side is washed and rinsed, I squeegie. So on and so on. Then I rinse the whole truck again, squeegie, and LIGHTLY dry with 2 microfibers; one to soak up the remaining water droplets and one to "buff", so to speak.

I then go over the whole truck with a "quick detailer", of course only using microfibers.

Household bath towels are a NO NO! I think they're much too rough. I use microfiber and microfiber only. I wash them together with nothing else. I use minimum detergent and NO fabric softener. I dry them on hot and store them in a sealed container, i.e. a Rubbermaid container. I buy the 18 gallon ones at Wally World.

Sam's Club has the best deal right now on microfiber towels. They're about $10 for 20. I buy 2 packages at a time. I'll use them for a few months and throw them away.
