Any of you guys use the California water blade? I saw it on Jay Leno's garage, and also read a bunch more about on some car forums, so I got one. Seems like it should work awesome, although I won't have time to wash the car till next Sunday It will be nice not having to spend 30-45 minutes drying the car with towels and still having lint on it.

I dunno about it...

however I am excited because I will be returning to the track next Sunday after a long hiatus. First time on the Azenis, let's get it on!!!

I have one in the bathroom, but never used it. I should try it the next time I wash the car.

Heh, the Azenis are beastly. They make me feel like a manly man when I drive.

I have this skin-like thing I use to dry my car and it doesn't leave any lint on my car, and it wrings out.

Oh those shammy towels? Those things are awesome. They hold hella water and when you wring out the water most of it comes out.

It's not really a shammy, they call it a PVA drying skin.

Never heard of it, as to your lint problem, buy lintfree towels (microfiber) and you won't have that problem.

Search Google for Ford or Contour forums. They'll provide better assistance than we can.
