The formula creates temporary hydrophobicity so water beads and sheets away, while adding a light gloss boost that complements waxes and sealants. Designed for cars, trucks, motorcycles, RVs, boats and more, it reduces the friction that causes 95% of wash-and-dry swirls when used with a quality drying towel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does After Wash speed up drying and reduce water spots?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter Wash changes how water behaves on the surface by lowering surface tension so droplets merge and run off in sheets. This lets you remove the bulk of water quickly with a microfiber towel, leaving fewer mineral deposits behind.
