steelwind101 Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Hi Dibbs, Spray your QD on to a wet panel and then dry normally. No extra rubbing or buffing is required. A simple and easy way to add some shine and make drying safer!! Geoff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drpellypo Posted May 2, 2007 Report Share Posted May 2, 2007 Yes, as said, tis fine to use the waffle. The QD just gives you a lube and cleans so you're not spreading potentially mucky water over your paintwork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wyliss Posted May 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2007 Well finally got round to washing the car tonight. Started at 8 and finished around 9.30 just as it was dark !. One thing I noticed when I was drying with the waffle weave and qd was that it was leaving a film on the roof as if I had not wiped it properly......do you think it was dew settling as night was setting in if its a swine when drying a car late at night! ?

WHIZZER Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 Sounds like it could have been Dew , Do you use two drying towels ? I normally wipe with the first or place on to allow it to soak up the water and then follow with a soft dry cloth . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woke up this morning and the roof looks fine....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bpsmith Posted May 4, 2007 Report Share Posted May 4, 2007 I noticed this on mine when druing off the other evening. Did the roof a few times but never really came off perfectly unless I used a clean dry MF cloth too, like I did the last time. Decided I would do the roof to the best it could be and then check on it after doing the bonnet. When I did so it was perfect so just need a bit of time to evaporate off it seems? Anyway, more than happy with the Der Wunder WW for drying along with Last Touch 1:1 diluted. Cant see how I was ever happy before... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
