All:

Not sure if this is a repost. If it is, let me apologize in advance. Has anyone heard of or used the CR Spotless System? Supposed to be pretty good. Any ideas?

Have you tried a California Jelly Blade to wipe all the excess water off the car ? They work great , then a quick towelling and you're done .Unless you like those quick detailer sprays ............... Cheers

+1 I've used the waterblade for many years, and its the easiest way (most cost efficient too), to dry your car with no water spots. Besides its actually kind of fun too! I'm one of those who loves "instant results" so it was a natural for me!

Yes, it will scratch if the car is not COMPLETELY clean. There is some debate here of course, but use on a black car and you will see. Stick with your MF's. Just my .02; however, they do dry the car fast and are fun to use. AND you can also polish it out.
