What makes After Wash awesome

Maintain Scratch-Free Paintwork with After Wash

95% of swirls and scratches come from poor wash and dry habits. Using After Wash after the final rinse is the best way to dry your vehicle without adding scratches or swirls. The secret to After Wash is the advanced lubrication agents that reduce friction between the paintwork and microfiber drying towel, ensuring your towel glides over the paintwork for a smooth, streak and scratch-free surface.

Water-Repelling Formula Dries Fast

After Wash uses hydrophobic technology to push water away from paint and quickly dry any vehicle faster than a towel alone. After Wash is formulated with synthetic sealant and gloss enhancers, adding extra protection after a wash. Simply spray After Wash on the wet surface, then watch the puddles of water sheet off the paint! After Wash makes drying your vehicle quick, easy, and safe.

Features

  • Add slickness to prevent scratching when drying
  • Glide towel over paintwork without marring
  • Dry any size vehicle in a flash
  • Shine as you dry
  • Help drying towel absorb more water in less time

    Truly amazed by this!!

    I used this on my grandma's car and it absolutely blew me away! A simple product that works absolute wonders!! Made the drying process much easier, and made the paint look brand new, even before applying any wax or sealant. After Wash is so good, I don't think I'll ever dry another car without this!
