What Is The Best Drying Aid?

What is the best drying aid? Immediately after you are done washing a vehicle, while it’s still wet, a drying aid is a product that is applied on the car and assists with the manual towel drying process. A drying aid will add lubrication to the surface, preventing scratches, it will prevent water spots, it will boost gloss and slickness on your paint, and will help repel water and dust.

Just applied a base layer of Bead Maker on my vehicle over the weekend. The slickness that it provides is unbelievable. Super easy to apply as well. I live in Oklahoma City, OK. Before Bead Maker, my car would be covered in dust the next day after washing. It took about 3 days after applying Bead Maker for the dust to finally settle on the surface and not blow off while driving.

Ethos Defy or Extreme Solutions Topper are my 2 favorites, in that order, for customers that are getting a maintenance wash.That of course is if I’m not going to be doing any polishing. If a customer wants just a quick wash nothing else I use Beadmaker just to give it a little extra and it’s relatively inexpensive.

I think it gets overlooked because its an old house hold/autozone brand vs the new age scented, cooling looking, designer bottle stuff with cool titles. But honestly, i like wax and dry better than Chemical Guys quick detail, bead maker and the ice/shine. Its really great stuff and works very well with water. I use an M18 blower to dry 90-95% of the way then wipe the rest in with wax and dry. I only bought it at advance auto because i ran out of my last beadmaker and didnt want to reorder as it attracts dust to much for people like myself without a garage. Ill by Wax and Dry again.

Hi Pan great video again. Im still using beadmaker as my drying aid. I would like to try the obsessed garage drying aid to compare but the shipping cost to Ireland from the US is just too expensive. I have tried carpro elixer in the past but beadmaker is better and a cheaper alternative👍🏽

I am still lover of bead maker. . I find it works fantastic on glass. The slickness makes it so much easier to wash the car. Did find order bead maker from carzilla before cold weather hits.. it does not like to freeze during shipping. .. dumped 2 gallons down the drain last February order

[@jonweigand3712]

I used AMP for quite a long time, until I ran out. It was too expensive to re-order (shipping from California was too much in USD) so I used Adam's Detail spray which worked great. I recently use the Chemical Guys Ceramic Detail spray, which works very well too for a drying aid, especially in the winter. Great Video Pan.

I know this is going to be a little controversial but the is controversial but the Turtle Wax hybrid solution wetwax is one of the absolute best drying aids I have ever used! When you spray it on to a wet surface it almost starts drying immediately but when you go to swipe it it is bone dry and then you buff to a nice shine. That said the traditional drying aids that I really like are Dream Maker as well as the Adams graphene detailer!

[@Jeeper1378]

Considering we don’t actually use as a drying “aid” 😂 These are all technically toppers when drying that add lubrication. Especially if doing it like Matt and most of us do it, blow drying first. Its funny when we use DI water, blow dry the car and still use a “drying aid” haha

[@masterstacker2833]

I tried Gyeon Ceramic detailer both wet and dry. Wet was easier and quicker and I liked the results better. With dry most of the detailer went into the rag. Just my experience.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yeah for us maniacs we blow dry first (a lot of people don't have the budget for a car dryer though so they need alternatives) and so it's more of a topper as you say. But even after blow drying, there is always some water some place, droplet flying, and I like a perfect finish with the added bonus of gloss and slickness. :)

[@masterstacker2833]

@@PanTheOrganizer Yes I love my blow dryers. I have both the big (Master Blaster) and small (Blaster Sidekick) blowers you recommend. The small one is very handy when I'm getting ready to dress the tires. I don't use the big one as much because I'm having better results with with Gyeon Ceramic Detailer applied wet. However, when I pull my rained on car into the garage and blow dry it effortlessly with the big unit I feel happy knowing no water spots are forming.

Hi pan! Newbie mobile detailer here.. i just want to ask if you already encountered this. i paint prep a car a honda civic2016 specifically then polished it with 3d One (there are watermarks issue on the hood by the way coz the car always stays outside day and night) after i polished i do an ipa then proceed with collinite 845 and bead maker as a topper... after a day it rain and the owner called me the following day and told me that some watermarks are back.. i feel like im in trouble 🙈🙈 i just told the owner that i will go back in his place this weekend to check it out. Need your advice here bro. Thank you so much! 🙏

[@PanTheOrganizer]

I have never experienced that, but perhaps you didn't polish deep enough, and what he's seeing is the water spot marks. Perhaps the stains were there for too long and etched through the clear coat giving permanent staining/damage. So you can explain that to the customer. There's so much polishing you can do before removing too much clear coat.

[@tarropie]

Thanks for the inputs pan! Cheers! 🍻🍻🍻

[@archieduckbutter1060]

I’ve tried nearly all of those. I’m sure I will get heat for saying so, but Chemical Guys Banana Spray Wax is my favorite topper. It’s the furthest thing from a spray wax so don’t expect longevity, but the gloss and slickness is amazing.

Yes Pan, bead maker is horrible for us here in dusty/windy valleys. Here in Las Vegas, if I use bead maker after I wash, by the next day from sitting outside the car will have a full layer of dust/dirt stuck to it. Considering we get lots of random wind it’s a really really bad combo. That being said, the gloss and slickness it gives off inside the garage is amazing.

[@P4SDetails]

Thanks for the video my bru. As always you are a one stop shop for detailing knowledge. If I had a vote it would be for either Adam's (because I love the performance of the graphene coating) or CarPro Elixir.

[@eagle0924]

I recently picked up a really clean black 98 Civic as a daily. I quickly realized the soft black paint was going to be the bane of my existence especially when it came to drying without leaving streaks. I ended up getting some bead maker to try out as a drying aid and it worked wonders, so now I use it everytime. Sure it may be a little wasteful but it's worth the convenience of not having to be so frustrated with the washing process

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yeah a drying aid is key to avoid streaks or water spots if you have hard water. Another game changer is using a water deionizer. No more water spots. You can even let the car air dry when you’re done for a spot free wash. Here’s my video on my setup: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3yxfWSZnaaEjrs

I have always loved Beadmaker, but have had certain instances that it may attract dust as some viewers have experienced. Streaking isn’t much of an issue though as I use it inside. I do have OG Drying aid, but have only used it once so far. Not sure if it’s as slick, and maybe dusts less. I have been too busy to really test. But I am positive it will be great as Matt is always killing it in curating great products! Thanks for all you do here Pan!

[@donaldthomason4588]

I had the same problem with static attracting dust etc....however, after putting a cap full Mckee's 37 N-914 rinseless wash in the bottle it solved it.

[@willoverkill8461]

Best drying aid I've used to help dry the surface is still Optimum Opti-seal; while it lacks gloss vs new products, it's still magic at releasing water tension. Wolfgang Uber Rinseless mixed to detail spray strength is great at adding gloss and slickness as a drying aid and very cost effective, I got that tip from your channel a few years ago. 914 is a good detergent rinseless but doesn't add any gloss, might be good for drying after a tunnel wash where you anticipate the surface to still be dirty.

[@PanTheOrganizer]

Yeah I like Opti-Seal too, but not on coated cars. It works wonders on cars with waxes or paint sealants.
