    You can, but waffle weave microfibers dry even better😉

    Yeah if you do that be prepared to find a quality professional detailer to fix the mess they will most likely make of it.

    My friend just paid his "neighbor" who owns a body shop $3 grand to repaint his truck. Their were orbital buffer marks in it and that's on a fresh paint job. He did a great job on the paint but....just be for warned, their are literally hundreds of posts here about body shops trashing paint when guys just took it in for a fender repaint or bumper etc and they "buffed" the entire car out for them and ruined all their hard work.

    Plus if/when you do a traditional bucket wash, you're going to need a waffle weave microfiber towel to dry. Any other towel lesser than that simply won't do.

    I picked it up.

    For some reason, I was expecting it to not get really wet
