Title: Rain and wax?
Post by: Steve30 on 08 July 2012, 18:53

Right I've cleaned the motor today using  Dodo SN as my wax,but its lashed it down what are peoples views on drying the car off is it good to keep drying off in-between these huge showers ? I can't stand water marks  :rolleyes:

Normal rain should'nt really leave watermarks (unlike tap water) ... and I'd tend to leave it,  as too much drying off everyday will inflict swirls over the long term.

+1 on this, I also gave the motor a little spruse up, I didn't use my usual LP and SN as I knew the heavens were due to open again I just used megs ultimate detailer....I find window water marks more of annoyance as wht doesn't tend to show water marks on the paint....
