Hi everyone, I went to a car show this past week and was thrown off at how many diffrent products there were. I was talking to one of the owners of a old black camero and asked how he kept it from scratching. He told me he used a special squeegee to dry his car and finish up with a towel. He gave me the website of where he brought his and I went home and placed a order. It came in yesterday and I have to say I'm impressed. I ordered a super flex water blade from www.waterblade.com and used it to dry my Cherokee. To my surprise, it did not leave any scratches or marks on my black paint. I'm not sponsored or getting paid to promote this product in any way but wanted to share my experience. They even included a mini waterblade keychain with the order! It works great for windows! Very cool product IMHO

They do scratch. It all depends on your cleaning job before you use the squeegee. I used one of these for years on my old vehicle. They do the job as advertised, they squeegee the water off the vehicle, but you're you're eventually going to end up with very fine scratches. All it takes is a tiny bit of dust/micro particles that fall on the paint after you finish washing the vehicle, then you start dragging it across the car with the squeegee. 
I use a couple gallons of RO water for the final rinse.. then leaf blower followed by microfiber drying towel.. for the little thats left.
The city water here is hard. over 300ppm. so the RO water with 20ppm helps alot.
PS those are not unique.. just not used much because 1 grain of anything = scratches.

I use the exhaust from my shop vac to get most of the water removed, then a chamois or microfiber to get the rest...
I tried one of those squeegees on another car that I had, but there were too many "nooks and crannies" to be effective. On the flat surfaces it worked fine, but everywhere else, not so much.

Yup. Use one of these on all the water traps like the lug nuts.
