Follow the method
- 01
Inspect each towel for grit and hard particles before it touches the surface.
Why: A towel can transfer contamination to the finish.
- 02
Use a dedicated Drying Towel to blot or glide gently over freshly washed wet surfaces.
Why: It is designed to absorb bulk wash water.
- 03
Fold a T2 into clean working faces. Use separate cloths for spreading product and final buffing where the product method requires.
Why: Controlling residue helps produce an even finish.
- 04
Keep paint, interior, glass and wheel cloths separate. Replace a dirty or saturated cloth.
Why: Different tasks collect different contamination.
- 05
Wash towels according to their care labels without fabric softener or bleach, dry as directed and store them clean.
Why: Residue and embedded dirt can affect future use.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Using T2 as the whole-car drying towel.
- Scrubbing harder with a contaminated towel.
- Using the same cloth on wheels and paint.
