My vac turns into a blower and I use that. Super easy. Then I use a microfiber towel to go over it.

Just to add my 2 cents. I literally have tubs filled with various microfiber, cotton and waffle weave cloths on hand that I have accumalted over the years, BUT by far the best and the only ones I use now are the "PFM's from Griot's Garage - https://www.griotsgarage.com/product...ortby=ourPicks
Regarding drying agents - I never thought of it and will check it out.

I have the same towel and its great. After the wash I spray detailing wax on the car then lay out Griots PFM towel and gently drag is across. One pass and the paint is dry... I try and avoid going over the paint multiple times with a drying towel to prevent swirl marks. The PFM is perfect for that goal
