    Another Drying Tip

    Yes, the MF towels, absorbers, leaf blowers & air compresssors are all items that I have used. It may be in here somewhere, but the one thing I do use consistently, is not a product at all, it`s called gravity. After rinsing is finished, I always open the hood & trunk. If the car has been maintained & the service is slick, almost all of the water will run off those 2 areas.

    Good tip... I do the same as well. I also open the doors because I find that it helps to evacuate the water.

    Great tip. I always open the hood and doors as I am drying. I am going to give this a try.

    Great tip. I usually do this for the hood and trunk on my MS3 to let the water run out of the emblems. Also some mirrors angle downward when folded toward the window, which helps let them drain!
