Drying Aid or Product After Every Wash?

[FUNX650]

Just a curiosity questions...
do you guys use some type of product on
the surface following every normal wash;
like your favorite QD, H2OG&G, D156,
or a spray wax of your favorite brand, etc,
during the towel drying process?

I typically have not been doing that and
have never had any ill effects like inducing
swirls or light damage.

•If that's the case...
-I see no need for you to
change-up your processes.

In the past I've used a spray wax, but
now that I'm moving to a coating and
less interested in boosting the LSP and
more focused on simply getting the car
dry and spot-free,

I'm moving to QD sprays which leave
as little behind as possible.

•I use Meguiar's D114.
•Nick's has a similarly formulated
product, soon to be forthcoming.

Yes. AFTER every wash. It will prolong your LSP. I like...

Griots spray wax.
Prima wax as you dry
Currently finishing up Megs shine & dry.

I use Wolfgang Uber diluted as a quick detailer spray or Meguiar's D156

Sonax BSD atm, Menzerna PL as LSP. I have Ech2o on it's way and the plan is to switch to Essence plus as my LSP during spring.

I use a QD after every wash due to the fact that I drive 3200+ miles every week, mostly on highways and LSP alone won't survive on some places for the entire winter without some help.

3,200 miles a week? That's over 144,000 miles a year. Really???? When do you have time to wash a car?

I used to be the same way, but recently I started using D155 Last Touch as a drying aid. Reasons why: It leaves the paint super slick and adds a touch of gloss, smells good, it doesn't alter my lsp, it can help wipe away any water spots [I don't usually have this problem when washing my own vehicle]

I don't need it to help me dry or prevent marring, I just like using it for the end result.

Had to do the maths from miles to km, but probably a little bit more than that. I picked up my car at the dealer on the 1st of June and have now done 51000 km. I'll be ordering my next car in april or may.



Edit: Trip 2 is last week plus Monday and tuesday. Slow week because of Christmas.

Sorry, I was multiplying the wrong way. 2000+ km per week = 1250+ miles per week = 110 000 km / 68 500 miles per year.

Griots spray wax is all I use, amazing stuff.

Maybe not every single wash but rather every other wash I use "something", whether its my FrankenDetailer or some of my other actual spray waxes. I mean its so easy to do why not do it, right!
