Maybe some of you do this already, but I wanted to share something with everyone since you all have shared so much with me.
When I dry my cars I used to always get the dreaded streaks from water that would always come out of the mirros, trim etc...annoying as heck and it would ruin an otherwise clean and spotless car.
So, for the past few years I`ve been doing this...
...after drying the car, I take my RIDGID wet/dry vac with the crevice tool installed, turn her on and by cupping my around the end of the nozzle so as to not scratch any paint, I hold it up under the mirror where it meets the door and run it around the mirror itself to suck out any traces of water that could be left since your towels can`t get `inside` those areas. It works great!
I also do this around all trim, lug nuts, door handles, etc. No more spots!! Just be sure to keep your hand cupped around the ends of the vac accessory to avoid any scratching and you`ll be in good shape.
So, there you have it...my first tip for you guys. As I said...some of you may already do this, but if not, give it a try...I think you`ll be happy when you take your freshly washed car out for a spin and you no longer have those dreaded dried water streaks all down the side of your ride.
