Many people will just leave the car to dry itself, this can cause problems if you have direct sunlight on it. You will find the water drying in certain areas faster which will leave spots all over. Drying your car is easy and only takes a few minutes to do it manually and the result will be much better.

1) A towel or leather is what you should be using, there are better materials to use than leather – it depends if you have one or mind spending the money in getting one. The main problem with using leather is that after a few uses it will become slimy and won’t be as good as drying the car making it much harder to dry manually.

2) All you have to do it go around the car drying it section by section, if the car is in direct sunlight then you should start with that area first. After you have cleaned a section, rinse out the material to free water allowing you to dry the next section easier.

3) Ensure that the car is 100% dry before putting your equipment away, make sure that you dry the wheels because if you were to drive off with wet wheels it could splash the side panels of your car.
