ir_fuel Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 I just use a special drying towel, works very effective too, much easier than a chamois. Quote
ir_fuel Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 Looks nice dough, just a pity you cannot use whatever shampoo you want Quote
Kev946 Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 I've been using one for about a year. So much quicker than a leather. Great for the missus 4x4. Quote
Rob_Quads Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 The key to it is the built in water softner. You can get dedicated water softeners for hose pipes but are around £45 but they will last a long time (in comparison to the Flash thing) Quote
Removed Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 water magnet towel from Megs then you can start waxing straight away and not have to wait till the car is dry! Quote
jim Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 I agree about the Megs water magnet towel. I found it hard to believe when others said that they could dry the whole car without wringing it out, but it's true! I wish I had bought one a long time ago. Quote
M13KYF Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 water nagnet towel is superb. Tutrle wax use to do some stuff that you used to put in a watering can when rinsing off. It used to make all the water just run off and almost no need for a towel. No longer make it but it was fab stuff. Quote
Sarnie Posted January 14, 2007 Posted January 14, 2007 The water magnet is ace It seems to work better, the more water its holding Quote
stuey Posted January 14, 2007 Author Posted January 14, 2007 where can u buy a water magnet........... Quote
Sarnie Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 where can u buy a water magnet........... Just below half way down: http://www.performancemotorcare.com/aca ... uiars.html Proper bit of kit Quote
ir_fuel Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 Indeed, oh and when your car is properly waxed you can nearly dry it without drying, by gently pouring water over the car and have the water "drag" the rest of the water along from the car. You can remove 80% of the water on the car like this, and for the rest you use the towel. Or if you are really "hard-core" you could dry the complete car that way. Quote
stuey Posted January 15, 2007 Author Posted January 15, 2007 cool........ i might get one of those then........... Quote
Stew Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 It's great but pat dry your car. If you drag or rub the water magnet (or anything else for that matter) it encourages swirl marks. Quote
M13KYF Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 where can u buy a water magnet........... halfords Quote
ir_fuel Posted January 15, 2007 Posted January 15, 2007 It's great but pat dry your car. If you drag or rub the water magnet (or anything else for that matter) it encourages swirl marks. Just be careful, dont push on it, and always rub in straight lines Quote
