Hi guys

thought id share with you just brought one of these :



from : http://www.chemicalguysuk.com/product_p/jetsp.htm

Will cut half the drying time and will ensure a streak free finish only need to use the microfibre

mop up the little bits of water the Jet blows away

Just thought id share as i saw that some of you reported that despite your best efforts

you still had a streaky finish, in my opinion £35.00 bargin for something that beats something so time consuming - the actual drying of the car !!
