Car Squeegee -

I LOvE THIS THING!!!!



it has cut down my drying time by more than half, and then using my Absorber towel to soak up all the left over spots makes it so easy!!!! at first i was worried about leaving scratch marks with this thing but so far so good!!! and the plastic is flexible it can get in all the curves! i definitely recommend it!!!!

California product. I love mine. Works well to get the majority of the water off the car after a wash. No scratches unless you have a spec of dirt that it could rub across the paint.

they are great for cutting down the time to dry but they will scratch your car...maybe not now but eventually...

It works best on flat panels like vans or SUVs. However, you better be sure that your surface is clear of anything and everything or else you'll create scratches.

You're better off getting a microfiber waffle weave towel to dry the car. It only takes one towel to dry a car the size of the Civic completely, and the safest way to dry is to blot.

i some times use the paint blade (Griot's) but most of the time a
nice flow of water (non-spray mode) during rinse will sheet off most
of the water. then you wont have to use that thing.

you really shouldn't need it if you have a good coat of wax on your car.
