how to keep windows dry after washing car??
I'm semi getting into this detailing side of things, and while my results aren't perfect i'm pretty happy with them.
there's one thing i can't seem to figure out tho. After washing and drying or detailing my car when i move the window up or down the window gets wet (from the water inside the door). anyone got any tips to prevent this?? |

Impossible- when you open the door the window moves down a couple of inches.
Also, on my convertible, when putting the top down the windows drop down even more and then go back up once the top has finished lowering. So I have the same issue, I just rewipe them.

I also face the same problem with my 118i! Drive for around 1-2hours before moving down the window. Everything will be fine then! I also clean my car at night and face the same problem on the next morning. So that is my solution!
