Waterblade
Waterblade
Has any used the California Waterblade or also called a T-blade? I have been using it on the windows and the most of the rest of the car to dry after washing and works great but do not want to risk scratches.
Some people have had success with it, but for detailers like myself it is a big NO-NO as Max said.
Use the sheeting method when washing off soap from your car and get yourself a Waffle Weave drying towel and use it to get the remainder of the water off. You can also use a leaf blower.

Definitely DO NOT use the California Waterblade for drying!! Anyone that says the waterblade doesn't scratch their paint hasn't put their car under proper lighting.
Here is an example of what the waterblade can do to your paint.

Pick up some MF waffle weave drying towels instead.

You can use it on windows and windshields, it's great as a squeegee for them. But like Garnet Canuck said though, even though you might not see it easily, it does scratch because I used it on my BO before I knew any better. It took me forever to polish the scratches out once I took a closer look at what it was doing to my paint.
