Hi Bobby!
Spray n Gloss is an awesome quick detailer. Its a personal favorite for darker colored finishes. No streaking and leaves a really nice gloss on the vehicle. I recommend using Spray n Gloss on the vehicle after your routine car washes. If you need a towel to go along with it, the octane, mcintosh or elite towel would be my choice

Be careful w/ those squeegees for drying. I posted a video not too long ago showing the potential damage they can cause to the surface if only small piece of debris is captured and dragged along the surface.
But yea, definitely drying out of direct sunlight is the way to go

I use the blower that I use on my Gixxer for hard to reach spots like under the spoiler, door jams, gas cap, around the lights etc..

Then I sometimes use the California Jelly blade. It's made from medical grade silicone and I have used it on my past vehicles with no scratches from it.

Then I use the absorber for everything else.

The canister accepts standard hose end thread that you would pick up at the garden supply store/home depot, etc. You run a piece of hose from the spicket to the "IN" side of the canister and take the other hose and hook it up to the "out" side. And thats it. Its ready to go! The water feeds in to the canister, fills up and neutralizes before exiting out the other side and being sprayed on the car No special tools or anything is required.

I used the canister this week when I received my Camaro. Easy to set up.
No water spotting that I could tell.

I let you know how well it works when I wash my filthy Honda Accord.

Be careful with the blowers..Dirt and grime can get built up around the
intake that can scratch your paint going 100 mph out. I remember once
I was blowing my hair (been swimming) and debry flew out of there and
nearlly put my eye out!:(

Be Careful with the water blades. If you're going to use one make sure you wash the silicone in hot water to remove debris and grime. The hot water will also soften it so it may mold to the contours of your Camaro with greater ease. The softer the silicone gets, the easier it will slide over your paint.
