These things suck, and by suck I mean suck ALOT of water off the car!
Costco Microfiber towells = good value for the money
Keep the wax away from the black plastics, generally if your doing application/removal all by hand i'd work panel by panel as there isnt much benefit of letting it dry, especially with the humidity % right now.

Our company was bought out the end of this past year... now we have to go though all 157 apartment files and reorganize them and put everything is a new order. So happy we are going out drinking tonight!

I've got one I'd sell for cheap, Marvin. You might need to get a neck-down adapter as it was from my Red. It was used for 3k miles or so?Originally Posted by foam

soooo waxing it was not too bad, although i am curious to see if there is really a difference...
Only had 3 towels to remove the wax with, and they became to saturated so I only got half the car done, drying the towels now and I will finish up.
