What is your car protected with?

As above, dump the chamois in the bin and get a proper drying towel. The two main types are microfibre and waffleweave. Both have advantages/disadvantages.

After washing, how do you rinse? Ideally you need to sheet the water. This basically means an open ended hose. Secondly, you need to dry quickly. You can use a quick detailer after drying to buff the car. Quite a few people use meguairs last touch. Also, in warmer weather, it can be beneficial to rinse and dry one panel at a time (starting with the roof).

Another little tip is to lightly mist the car with a quick detailer before using the drying towel. Should aid drying and get rid of those aweful water spots.

too hot:
Don`t wash it :signLOL:

Keano do you use the detailer while the car is still soaking wet or let it dry so it's just damp?
