Anyone tried?.I bought one last week and find it amazing.Cuts drying time at least in half.I recommend!.
-
Eeak. Horses for courses and all the rest of it, but it's worth making you aware you can do some pretty nasty damage if there's any dirt particles left on the paint when using one of these.
-
sorry to say but I had one , stopped using it pretty sharpish. just scratches the clearcoat :confused:
would suggest a good quality super plush drying towel :happy2:
lots of knowledgeable detailers on here that can give good advice (JPC for one :drinking:)

Yeah pretty scraey after seeing Jay on here and read DW they are pretty dangerous.
I still have mine and just use on the windows to cut down drying time. Always use the trust Autoperfection towel on the paint
-
I used to ave one but seeing the damage it can do i stopped using mine
-
Only on the glass for mine as well.
-
i can see why people use them and have them for glass only, but i wouldnt. dont be tempted guys! ;) :signLOL:
-
even for glass only as well jay?
-
Hope your garage doesnt have Bright florecent lights, your see the damage one of those things leaves!!.
as has been said , get a super plush drying towel. :happy2:
-
im saying i can see why people use them for the glass, but i dont personally.
partly due to me being over cautious....glass can scratch too
and well..i dont tend to spend long drying cars when they dry themselves after a detail.
The quickest way i dry a car is with a hose pipe, no sh1t!

Out of interest do you use a filter through the hose - living in essex the water is horrendous and ideally looking to see how I can improve speed to avoid water spotting

-
