Hows the CWB.....I`m really hesitant about getting this product.... i heard a lot of great things but very skeptical of how a product like that wouldn`t scratch the paint

Rednsxe - A search on this topic will give you more info than you wanted to see! Short take: if (many would say "when") a speck of something abrasive gets between the blade and your car it`s scratch-city. If that never happens, the blade itself won`t scratch the car. I only use it on beaters. You MUST wash the car impeccably before using the thing and wipe its edge after every swipe.

Yep, a search will turn up many discussions. I use a CWB, don`t take any special precautions, and have never had a problem.

Don`t be hesitant, this thing is such a time saver for me, I`ll never go back to trying to dry with towels. Only use them to get hard to reach places and finish up. And this is on a BLACK `96 Cobra.

Well, should you decide to get one, just never leave it in your car on a sunny day lol. The thing melts and is ruined! Believe me :D :D

I use it as well and have had no problems to date. I would think that anything that could happen with this could happen with a towel. If you get any grit between what you hare using and the paint it`ll scratch. Like was said above... The time you save is nice.

This is a real time saver on both of my Grand Cherokees. I also use it on my wife`s mustang. I usually finish with a soft terry cloth.

It feels like we`ve talked this issue to death the last couple months or so. :p
