How To Dry Your Car!

An old towel may be convenient for drying your car, but it's not the best drying tool. Fortunately, today we have a lot of good choices - having a spot-free dry car has never been easier!

Here are the tools we recommend at the Kutztown Car Wash.

Material	Description	Advantages	Disadvantages
Spot-Free Rinse	100% pure H2O, Spot Free Rinse allows you to let your car air-dry without leaving any spots behind. Any/all types of towels can trap grit and scratch your car - spot free rinse cannot.	100% pure water Nothing touches your car except pure water Simple to use Nothing to store or maintain Quick!	It takes time to air dry
Natural Leather Chamois	Chamois is still the ideal drying material.	Dries thoroughly to a brighter finish No lint Traditional	Relatively expensive Must be taken care of Mildews and flakes with age
Artificial Chamois	A long lasting 'towel' made of polypropylene that soaks up a lot of water.	Absorbs and squeegees like chamois Less expensive than chamois Does not mildew or flake Machine washable	Not a natural product Somewhat expensive
Squeegee	Popular in Europe, squeegees push the water off your car.	Lasts a long time Minimal maintenance
Microfiber Towels	Made of fibers twice as fine as silk, 100 times finer than a human hair, these towels absorb 7 to 8 times their weight in water (twice as much as cotton!) Lint free, they clean polish and dry at the same time! Fantastic on paint, glass, plastic, vinyl, leather, etc. Microfiber towels are the first choice of professional auto detailers.	Absorbs a LOT of water	Still relatively expensive Can really hold on to dirt, so you don't want to reuse it too many times
Cotton Towels	Cotton towels are an all-time favorite for many drying and cleaning tasks.	Reusable Natural Lint free Inexpensive	Need to be washed and stored
Paper Towels	The quicker picker upper.	Cheap	Single use Recommended for windows only
