Can I apply Guard and Gloss with a waffle drying towel?

[daleong]

Hi,

 

I was wondering if I have to use a plush microfiber to apply Guard & Gloss while drying my car after a wash or I can use a waffle weave drying towel instead as it picks up much more water?

 

Thanks for the advice here.

I would not use the Great White drying towel for several reasons. I like to use the plush grey border-less. 

 

After the HGG is applied, there will not be as much water left to remove, so the drying towel is actually way big for the job. The HGG would almost certainly stain the DT, hence my use of the grey towels.

I would recommend using the plush towel to apply the G&G too. 

 

I use G&G as part of my Rinseless wash routine.  I wash the section, spray G&G, wipe with a damp plush towel, and dry with a Waterless Wash towel (same towel as the GWDT, just cut smaller).  You could do the same with a regular 2 bucket wash.

For best results, stick with the plush.  It's made for the Guard and Gloss.

It wouldn't hurt to give it a try, but I have only used edgeless plush towels with mine.

Apply with the plush - however I have done like Michael and when used with rinseless washing, have dried with a 16x24 waffle weave and a spritz of Detail Spray to remove any GG residue and leave it streak free and looking gorgeous.

I'm going to have to give this a try.

 

Is it the Detail Spray or the waffle weave that is responsible for the success?

I do the same, the waffle weave and detail spray to knock down any streaks left from the Guard & Gloss. Very easy and looks great.

My best results, by far, have been spritzing GG on, then using a single soft towel to spread/apply GG. Then using a double soft to buff dry. I never use more than one of each towel on my car. Caveat here is that I always apply GG in the shade. If you are applying GG in the sun, you may need detail spray to assist with removing streaks.

^I apply with a Single Soft as well

Thanks everyone for the suggestions here! Love the G&G!
