    Spray On Wax and Chamios Drying

    Wanted to throw this question out to you all.
    When using a spray wax as you are drying a vehicle, can you use a chamios as you dry and apply spray wax?
    I do majority of drying a vehicle with a chamios, but I am not sure if the spray on wax will affect the chamios for future use?
    Or is it better to start investing in a bunch of MF towls?

    MF or WW would be better for this.

    OK, I usually dry with chamios then go back with a Spray On and wipe with MF towl. I guess I was trying to eliminate one of the two steps I currently do when using a spray on wax.

    I think a chamois and spray wax while drying is a recipe for streaks, unless you maybe used 2.

    If you must use a drying aid (wax) use a waffle weave or plush MF towels. Wash after use or your towels will repel water.

    Re: Spray On Wax and Chamios Drying

    I don't see a problem with using a chamois with spray wax on a wet car. I use Meguiars "Wax as you Dry" on my personal vehicles all the time while still wet and dry with a Water Sprite chamois with no problems. I wash dealer lots and dry every car with a Water Sprite chamois. I will take some spray wax with me tomorrow and try it on a few dealer cars but I am guessing it will be fine and will not effect the Water Sprite chamois in any way.

    Gottcha!

    It was the title "Wax as you Dry" that had me confused.

    Thanx for the clarification...
