Is there a trick to get water completely out of cracks and lights?? It's so annoying that after a good wash, as soon as I drive down the road I find water runs all over the car. :food-smiley-021:

I'm thinking compressed air would work? What are you using?

I use the Master Blaster I bought from Nakid Parts a vendor on SV. It works great in the cracks and crevices of your car.

Compressed air works, or a cheapy leaf blower, we even sell a nice compact little "super blower" called the Blaster Sidekick made by metrovac that really packs a punch, plus it warms the air as well. Check out the video, skip to around the 7 minute mark to see it in action -

I always also make sure to have a 4oz bottle of detail spray or waterless wash and a fresh microfiber in the car with me when I go on the first drive after a wash. Even with all the blowing it will still manage to hide some water in a few places, so that way when I get where I'm going or can pull over for a minute I can quickly (and safely) wipe away the few drips.
