Need help on drying

[Stuff]

After washing the car this week I was drying it in the garage. There was some sun on the trunk lid. I swear I made one pass with my WW MF and more swirls. I have always washed the car and then dried it off with my Sonus WW. After doing some reading my technique might be wrong with mopping up the water with the WW. I just don’t understand how a clean WW on a clean car can created swirls. Any advise on the best way to dry the car? I think I have got my wash technique down good but I'm think I now need to work on drying. Just a thought of mine. Would it help maybe to spray the car in my ONR QD maybe to clean as I dry and provide some more lubrication. Thanks for the help.

How old is your towel? How many washes have you used it for? How often do you clean it? How do you clean it? What kind of car? What color? Are you sure its not just streaks? Have you tried using something else to dry the car?

Sorry bud, can't help you without more info

Got the towel new 4-5 months ago. Used once ever 1 to 2 weeks. Cleaned in washer after every use with Sonus wonder wash. Black car (yes I know its a lost cause). Do MFs just wear out?

Some of my WWMFs are a *lot* softer than others, and one of my older BBTs is staying pretty stiff these days no matter what I do with it. Sounds like you might need a new WW.

I'd CD-test it: get a CD wet and try drying it with that WW, see if it mars it. If so, then I'd get some of the extra-soft WWs that some vendors have these days. FWIW the extra-soft ones are the only ones I use on my "good" vehicles.

Note that besides the WW itself, how hard you press can make a difference, as can the presence of any contamination that somehow got missed in the wash.

What sort of car and paint. Is it factory paint?
