I have a VERY hard time believing that it removes all of them.

I hand wash my car. If you know how to do it you dont need the auto dry. I use a shammy.

They work okay. No matter what you do, black cars should be washed out of the sun and the coolest temp of the day. Don't let the soap or water dry on the car. Don't rub on it at all. Don't wipe of bird crap with a wet paper towel. Keep wax on it every month and enjoy.

Peace,
Black car owner

When I dry I use two microfiber towels, one get the bulk, up than the other gets the rest. As they get to wet, I get a new one to do the second job every so often.

Just grab a wet rag and wipe it off... Spray it with a quick detailer if you want to.

If it seems to good to be true, it probabaly is.

Unless you have distilled water running through your hose, the water will have all sorts of contaminants. When they sit on your car, they mark the paint over time (as well as the glass). If you look closely on a car that hasn't been garaged, you'll see small water droplet marks on the glass and paint if it hasn't been cared for properly.

Bottom line: If you want to clean your car the right way, do it the old fashioned way. Grab a mitt (or something of the likes), your favorite concentrated car wash, and get to it. Dry it with some microfiber towels or a chamios, and you'll be good. Wax every 6-8 weeks, with some spray wax once a week (after a wash) and you'll be golden!
