Call me lazy if you want but this works quite well. I used to towel off my car after I washed it and went thru a couple of towels every week doing this. Every once in a while, the old lady would catch me using one of the "good" towels and I'd catch hell for it. I use towels because I've heard chamois cloths aren't real good for the paint. Well, as I was sitting there this weekend looking at my car dripping on the driveway, I glanced over and saw my electric leaf blower. You guessed it, a non-contact way to dry your car in about a tenth of the time it normally takes to towel it off. No more catching hell from the old lady for using her towels ( at least on the outside of the car).

LAZY! i use a surgical rubber squeegy to remove 90% of the water first, then a single towel to finish and buff it out... works great... the squeegys are under 10 bucks if you can find them, i finally found one at a local parts store.

I concure, that's pretty lazy
![]() Not as lazy as my neighbor though. He's a rather large guy with the requisite "plumbers butt"....this last fall my wife secretly got him on video tape using his shopvac to vacum leaves off his lawn. Just as soon as we move we're sending the tape into one of those "World's Funniest Videos" shows....stay tuned.... ------------------ Marc '86 944 NA |

Better than chamois is old cloth diapers (clean ones of course!). They absorb better than towels and will not leave lint behind.
