VX crazy, I made the mistake of not using the microfiber towel. The wax does not come off very well with a regular towel ,nearly impossible. I did not realize there was a microfiber towel in the package and was having a hell of a time getting the wax off. I picked up a larger microfiber towel to use. Works better than the tiny one they give you .

Leah, I use a the Absorber to dry after washing .It only takes a few extra minutes .Well worth it to keep away the spots. You can get one at walmart for around $10 .Should be in the automotive dept near the waxes. shawn
