Or you could enjoy life and get a few scratches in your paint.

Both the soap/foam gun and blower are great ideas for regular washes, reduces fine scratches. I use both and as a last step attach a charcoal filter to the hose to purify the water for the final rinse.

Yup. I use the metro as well. The foam gun is all right, but kind of waste of the soap.....

You use the same amount of soap but because it is swashed around and pressurized it produces more foam than in a bucket. I keep spraying the car or use it to clean the driveway.

Here's another option too--if you can get by this guy's obnoxious self promotion.

Drstrange - are you near Los Altos? Maybe we could timeshare your new blower. (-;

Thanks for the opinion. I have seen differing thoughts on this and have seen the wool mitts. Do you have a suggested source?

Thing is...I don't think I am obsessed. I just don't like the swirls! Pretty sure those were mostly a result of the drying towels. The other option is to get a white car instead of blue

I noticed you mentioned you have a Flex polisher - so do I.
I use Adam's polishes with my Flex. I like his system of corresponding pads and polishes. White pad = white polish, orange pad = orange polish, etc. It makes sure you're using the correct pad for the polish.
I'm pretty sure I got my wool mitt from him, too. No affiliation other than I attended a detailing seminar he put on at a local performance shop, and not only is he a good guy, but I liked his business philosophy of using USA sources when he can.

He's in Denver and will ship the same day (usually within hours) of your order.
Side note - maybe try Zaino Z5 - it helps hide swirls on a dark car

If you need to hide swirls, try black liight then top it with a wax or sealant.

Or you're going to need to do paint correction with the polisher. I picked up menzerna polishes and it's great. It's made for german cars.
