The hard water in san antonio necessitates a mr. clean wash system. Has worked flawlessly for me.

 

I use a... are you ready for this... looks like I'm the only one who uses a....























Towel

 

I use my air compressor with a blow nozzle in one hand and a microfiber towel in the other, stops the flying water from hitting anywhere else. Gets the water out of everywhere, even in the mirrors. If I have any spots then the meguires quick detailer

 

I use it and like it,when used as perthe instructions it doesn'tleave any spots andno needto 'blow dry.'

 

I bought the Mr. Clean car wash stuff a couple weeks ago, used it on one of the cars first....the next day the wife took it back to Wal-Mart to get our money back....didn't work worth a darn, glad I never tried it on the bike. I got an electric blower from Cycle Care a couple years ago, but they have since switch to selling the Master Blaster, but I like what I have...nice soft rubber nozzle so if you accidentially hit the bike you don't scratch or scuff anything. Usually use a microfiber towel after the blow dry to buff it up a little.

 

Toro 235mph electric blower

 

Craftsman leafblower, S100, pigsnot and towel. I've got a buddy that claims that using dishwasher Jet Dry in your rinse water helps with the drying process. Never tried it myself but kind of makes sense.

 

I use my air compressor. Works great.

Hope you have a in line filter. I've seen compressor air blow stuff out of the hose that was fugly.
As for Mr. Clean, the filtered rinse is ok but I'm not a big fan of the soap. I think it is too strong. I use the leaf blower but would really like one of those bike driers.The fine point nozzle would be great.
