I think newspaper u got to be careful, I've read in some forum that it can cause scratches. [:/]

 

All i can say is...i run the newspaper along the surface during the wiping, not as in typically wipe (like using cloth, if you can get what i mean)

Alternatively, i use old windscreen wiper to wipe of all the excess water from the body and the glass before using cloth to dry the car...

 

that is innovative..... old windscreen wiper.

 

Thanks. Being adopting this method for years. [;)][;)][;)]

use autoglym aqua dry [thumbsup]

but remember that it will be stained if your surface is not clean when you use it because it is yellow = easily stained

 

but i think itz ok as long as you wash it often

mine already stained here and there liao ......but still working fine [thumbsup]

highly recommended but exp

 

the Aion one , i also have , abit more spongy and yellow also

although i feel not as good as autoglym one.......maybe because itz much smaller in size

 

my 2 cents [thumbsup]

Instead of the ob page, you can always choose to use the fortnightly COE articles. After a couple of wipes, your car will have all the COEs available for analysing the high and fall cycles. [laugh][laugh][laugh]

Dont know abt that but it comes with a long rectangular tube with transparent casing

with green caps at both ends. You can easily get it at HOME-FIX shops.

Hi, me use

 

a) A'glym silicon blade for all windows & roof top

 

b) 01 pc chamois + 02 pcs dry mysticmaid absorbant towel for rest (except tyres)

 

my ride's a SUV... wink.gif

 

Not too sure aboutthe silicon squeegee.

 

But I definitely second your part (b)! [thumbsup]

 

A well-maintained chamois & the mysticmaid drying towel is all you need

Old windscreen wiper on glass I can understand but won't wiping it on the car body a little harsh??

Hi

This question may sound kind of foolish, but would like to find out do bros here uses dry towel to dry the car or wet and wring the towel first to dry the car? [:)]

 

I recommend Meguiar Water Magnet [thumbsup] , quite expensive but its worth the money. Absorbs water v well without leaving water marks thats the most important. Anddd... dun need to press so hard on the body, in fact just slide it across the wet body.

 

Available at Autobacs....
