dry it with a cotton bath towel. drive around the block or to the store and back. dry again with same towel. No water spots, no scratches, no streaks.

Tried and true chamois.
acutally the best thing is get the Crafstman Shop Vac that doubles as a blower and use the reducing cone on it. Works awesome drys all around the mirrors and plastic trim, use it in the engine ba, no water spots at all and when you pull the car in the garage no drips. open the doors and blow all the dust out of the car, even cleans around the shifter boot. Only thing that stinks is be sure that you clean up, my wife backed over the cone, & Crafstman changed the style, & can't find a nozzel anywhere and drying takes forever now.
Every time I have used a microfiber towel no matter what manufacturer they always leave thousands of microfibers all over the car. Is this normal?
As I stated earlier I blow dry my car but I also follow up using Eqyptian-weave cotton towels. Another good towel type are the diapers from before the 1970 Pamper era began. If you can find the old traditional plush-cotton diapers, these are some of the best things you can use for drying and buffing the shine.

Cobra waffle weave microfiber towels. Does a great job!
California water blade (carefully, the plastic handle han scratch) then an Absorber synthetic chamois. I make sure boht are clean before use. Sometimes I feel like looking like a jackass and use an electric leaf blower to blow all the water out of the cracks
Long ago (10 years ), when I lived in the boonies, I would take my car out after washing and bring it up to about 100 mph for a little bit, dried it off quite nicely. Then touchup with an absorber.
I can't really do that now, so I just use the absorber. No problems with spots or scratching.

I use the huge blowers at my car wash... I work at a Kwik Kar Wash and hand wash my cobra and ws6, then send them through on default so no watter or soap or the machines come on, then turn on the blower at the end and it dries the car quite well.. Then finish with Tropi-Care microfiber weave towel.
NO scratches on my black ws6 or MC Cobra.
