    Wax as you dry products

    Now that I've got my sealant settled and applied, time to move on to improving my regular washes.

    I have used Eagle One Wax-as-U-Dry since it was introduced and it has always been very easy to use while providing a little extra shiny/waxy refresh every time. I just mist it around the car while wet and towel dry as usual.

    What else do you guys use and what works better/why? I see a lot of spray waxes/polymers on AG, but they mostly appear to be something you apply after drying which makes it another step.

    I use CG V7, Optimum rinse-less wash and wax, Optimum spray wax and a few other rinse-less products as drying agents.

    I have been using megs d156 as a drying aid with great results. I mist while the vehicle is wet and then dry the car. Everyone comments on how my vehicles look when I'm done. Highly recommended if you don't mind something that's not over the counter.

    Was using Car Pro ECH2O on a wet surface and the water just took off. Never used it as a drying aid, but I'm sure it will work well.

    I have all the above products in my arsenal. I will use just about any quick wax as a drying aid. I like 303 and Megs Ultimate Quik Wax.

    There are so many great, fantastic products out there that act as a drying aid. I use a leaf blower and get most of the water beads off of the paint and the mist with a sprayer and wipe the finish dry and you are absolutely correct, the comments are very compelling and motivating to perfect this process. Whether you call it quick detailer, diluted rinse-less wash/wax, spray wax or whatever you use the results in the drying process are really good.

    Re: Wax as you dry products

    I'm a big fan of D156 (UQW) for this purpose. Not only does this aid in drying, it leaves great gloss. Finish is slippery smooth and subsequent cleaning is a breeze. FWIW, it also does a nice job as a vinyl trim protectant leaving a smooth patina even on textured trim.
