Well, after realizing all the trouble drying off the top, the chrome wheels, the spaces between doors and fenders, engine compartment and so on, I finally have the ultimate solution I found by cleaning off my Harley which has way more little areas and chrome, a real pain to clean. A Sears shop vac. Retail about $139.00. Has a detachable top leaf blower with 210 MPH wind. Using the small rectangle attachement it blows all the water off. Then, follow up with a SINGLE towel to touch up any spots that were tough to get or just to be sure your baby is perfectly dry. If not for anything else, just for drying the top off alone its worth it. Obviously you could use a leaf blower, but the shop vac is small and light. And the vac itself has 100 other uses for house, garage or spill cleanup. Oh, and for mentioning it, the blower is not part of the vac itself, its a seperate hole at the top of the vac, so its always blowing (theres a diffuser so it does not blow dirt around when your cleaning with the vacuum). In other words, having the vac blow small particles of garbage out of the base that you cant see will never happen because they are seperate. Though some of you would consider that as a potential problem right away Let me know if you try it or have already. I have never seen this idea mentioned here, so was not sure if this was already a Prowler "tip". ------------------ |

I use "abosorbant" chamois', and then an air compressor with an attachment to get the dreaded crevises, mirrors, etc. I then take "mother's" california show & shine, and get any extra drips that may be present. Another product that I have found to be amazing is "mother's" back to black. This stuff is great for the BUMPERS, trim, and interior dash, steering wheel, etc. With the new splash gaurds (not trimmed) I have found I need only wash every so often, and in between use a "california duster" and the "Mother's" show & shine. For your rims (now that your have those dustless brake pads)I find that "Mother's" chrome polish works awesome. Clean, Clean, Clean the way this car looks best. I do not work for "Mother's" just love the products. ------------------ |
