This is why your dark Challenger looks terrible after washing

Описание: Drying your Dodge Challenger properly after a wash is super important — especially if it's a darker color like many Challengers are — because it helps prevent water spots, swirl marks, and scratches on that beautiful (but swirl-prone) paint.
The Challenger's large, mostly flat panels make it fairly easy to dry, but water loves to hide in the trunk jambs, door edges, grille, wheels, and rear tail light areas, so you need a smart approach.
Here are the most popular and effective methods used by Challenger owners (from forums like Challenger Talk and detailing pros):
1. Best Overall Method: Blow Dry + Microfiber Finish (Most Recommended by Owners)
Use forced air first to remove 80-90% of the water without touching the paint, then finish with a high-quality towel. This is the #1 tip from Challenger owners to minimize swirls.

Step 1: Grab a cordless leaf blower (battery-powered ones like WORX, Ryobi, Echo, or Milwaukee are favorites — lightweight and powerful enough).
Step 2: Start blowing from the top down: roof → hood → sides → trunk. Pay extra attention to wheels, grille, mirrors, badges, door jambs, and trunk edges (open the trunk halfway to let trapped water drain, then fully open and blow it out).
Step 3: Finish with a premium microfiber drying towel (waffle-weave or super-plush like Chemical Guys Challenger Fatty or The Rag Company ones) — pat/blot gently rather than drag, and use a quick detailer spray (like Meguiar's or Adam's) for extra lubrication and shine.
