Finish Kare 425

**Centexhokie** · 11-01-2013, 12:25 PM

I am sure that I am probably the last one here to find this out, but I love this stuff when drying the car. Last night I wanted to quickly wash my car before it got dark since we had a large rain event here in central Texas and the sides of the car were caked with splatter. I use a foam gun to put the soap on the car and the two (2) bucket method to wash.

I am pretty good with flood drying and the car currently has a couple of coats of Collinite 845 on it. The part I hate the worst is drying. I use the blot method and unfortunately the hood is long and flat (MB SL550) so water beads but doesn't sheet off as well as I would like. Last night I tried using my FK425 to spritz on the car while drying and it worked wonders for making the job quicker and more thorough with a waffle weave towel. Thanks to whoever on this forum had mentioned that in another thread.

Trying to learn something everyday.

I love FK425. It is one of my favorite QD / Drying aids.

Thanks. Your review is the one that suggested using it as a drying aid. I bought it originally to try to lower the dust attraction of the car and to do quick touch ups. Thanks for the suggestion it is a real help for the part of the wash that I don't enjoy.

Did it help with the dust attraction?

It seems to me that it does. I own a small manufacturing company and get dust from the back parking lot. The dust still goes on the car, but it seems to blow off on the drive home. I used to need to dust a few times a week and now I just wash once per week.
