Coupe Water After Washing

[WradDad]

Lot's of comments here about blowing the water out, and I tried that, but found it actually drove some water into the car! My wet/dry shop vac does a much better job of sucking up the excess water, and doesn't blow water into the car or all over the outside!

... and for only $1499.99, I'll ship you the exclusive C4 edition shop vac.... no more watery mess! But wait, there's more.....


Man, I know how to have fun, don't I? :L

I would say so. You have pictures of the C4 shop vac. or sales brochures?
Move the decimal point one spot to the left they might even sell. :L Or maybe should move it to the right to test the market first. Course you would have to give some free special C4 water with it .

I use a small plastic syringe to suck the water out. Quick, clean, and cheap. You can find these at harware/lumber stores for applying glue. A turkey baster works good, too, but it's a little large.

Here's a tip when your ready for a final rinse before drying. Turn off the water, remove the nozzle and then turn on the water about half way - low. Start at the top and go over the entire car allowing the low pressure water to form a "sheet" of water. As the water drains, it "grabs" (for want of a better word) itself, or follows itself and runs off the car surface without forming hundreds of little puddles. Quick wipe down, no water spots - finished!

Ive never tried it but some people on here have recomended using a weed blower on the car after washing,they say it works well.As far as the rear window corners have you thought about the drain hole with a tube mod?

I do that..works great!

I fold up some microfiber towels and stick it the corners while I am wiping down the interior. Gets 99% of the water out.
