I`ve been happily using Klasse AIO for years along with KSG, but thought I`d try using AW with the wife`s new car after reading all the good things about it here.



So I`ve been using it "wet", as the directions suggest. I squeegee most of the final rinse off, then spray on the AW and towel dry. It takes longer to get the final dryness using the AW than not, but no problem.



But it does seem to be a problem on the glass. I end up having to clean the glass of the slight smeariness that seems to stay behind. On my other car (on which I don`t use the AW), the drying towel also polishes the glass and I never have to follow up with glass cleaning, so I`m pretty sure it`s the AW.



Of course the instructions also say that you can use on a dry vehicle in a WIWO method, more like I use the KSG on my car.



What do you users of AW do?

I use it dry. I always blow off the car with the leaf blower to blow most the water off and then finish with a Last Touch......every couple of weeks I replace the Last Touch with Aquawax after the wash. This makes it easy since I use the same procedure every time...just swap the QD for AW every so often.

I dry then apply (when in rhyme, I find things in order for my facile mind.) :laugh:

I also dry first then AW. I found my WW drying towels loose some of their ability to absorb when I use it with AW. I also thinks it works better this way.

I use it dry as well. I do the same thing - I end up spraying it on the windows, but they smear a little so I go get some window cleaner and cleaning the glass. It happens every time - you think I`d learn to just not spray the windows.

Dry. I`ve never experience any smearing on windows. Are you guys shaking it up before using it like they suggest?

Shake it. Use it wet -- while drying. That`s the easiest, quickest way for me. I use it with Absorber. It works great, and the Absorber always smells lovely:)
