Default Spot-free rinse at car wash??

At the do-it-yourself car washes, after using the wax, do you use the low-pressure rinse that supposedly helps prevent spots?

I usually do, but wonder if it really does anything. Is it different H2O than the regular rinse stuff?

Also was wondering if other people do what I do and drive 90-100mph on the highway on the way home to dry their cars. That seems to dry everything except the insides of the doors.

Why not invest in California Car Blade? The Spot Free helps a little. I would not recommend the spray wax.

I would recommend you hand wash and hand dry. Just my .02.
