I carefully use a "Jelly Blade" and then come behind it with M/F towels to dry what's left. On the wheels and chrome bumpers, a chamois.

I use these WWs.



Really good stuff...I'm kinda "micro-fiber" addicted since I first started using 'em.

 

Yep... I've used this one too. It's a FINE method as it introduces NO abrasion and thus, eliminates the possiblity of scratching/swirling.

 

I use I think they call it the california blade??? Kind of like a squeegie. Works wonders, never had a problem with scratches. After that I give it a quick wipe down with the Absorber. Takes all of about 2 min. to dry the f-150

 

I used to swear by this product until I started noting a lot of 'straight line' scratches. Sure, it's not the blade, itself, that is causing that problem; it's a tiny bit of grit/sand/grime being drug around on the blad that is doing it but, in turn, I came to the conclusion that it simply wasn't a safe alternative for me to dry -- especially on dark colors.

I use an automotive squeegie on most of my truck, and then I jerk out the leaf blower. It really does the trick. It will blow the water right off. And works wonders for rims too.
