I would agree with you and say that anyone that ever met Phillyd2 knows that he is definitely a screwball, but....
last time I did that I (ahem) got banned.:biggrin2:
And don't go gettin' all sensitive all of a sudden- tell 'em to shove it if you have to.

I'm pretty sure my scratches are pin striping from my offroading.

What would be the best way to dry it? Tonight I get my 4runner FINALLY lol but I have a Toyota tacoma in red and there is swirl marks all over lol. What kind of towel or cleanng cloth should I use to clean my new 4runner? maybe someone could link me to some links on Amazon THANK YOU!

a good quality microfiber drying towel like the one below. Use the sheeting method with your hose as your last step before drying and there will be very little to dry. This website has great info and advise from pro detailers for people like us.

Ouch! well I do it by hand becase my father hates car wash as well he tells me they dont clean them right lmao.
Thank you that was what I was looking for! I bought some at walmart that were like 15 towels for like 10 bucks but I think they leave swirl marks
lol.Thank you!
I get the $7 walmart "absorber" drying towel... dry great, last a long time, and you can machine wash themThank you that was what I was looking for! I bought some at walmart that were like 15 towels for like 10 bucks but I think they leave swirl marks

Get a microfiber drying towel with seemless edges. The seems are what scratch your paint in many cases. Those swirls can be easily buffed out.
they dont... I used it on black vehicles without issues. I suggest washing it firs to soften it up even more.

I suggest you don't get anything that touches your cars paint at Walmart or an auto parts store if you can avoid it. That Absorber thing will grab dirt but it will stay on the surface of the cloth and you'll certainly scratch the car. I had one before I knew better and then tossed it.
The yellow microfibers you get at Costco are decent if you need to get some from a store otherwise I suggest you get good microfiber from Detailed Image - Premium Auto Detailing and Car Care Products, We Are Car Care -- Car Wax, Car Polish, Auto Detailing Supplies, Car Buffers & Car Accessories Store, or www.detailersdomain.com.
Each runs specials regularly.
You just paid a bunch for a new truck - you can get a few good microfiber towels to keep it looking good - especially if you have black.
no problems with mine. I keep it off the ground and throw it in the laundry after each use.... it works great, been using them for years. Just FYI the cloth you linked to can "grab" particles as well...
