Most reviews I have read said they are great, and I will probably buy some more when I get the mitt. I have just been testing out different things and seeing what I like best. Venturing off from the Adam's

Going to sound stupid here, and I am, but I need to have one area of my Expel fixed next week. After that, I see the manufacturer sells a "sealer" and other stuff. How best to care for the film?

Ask the manufacturer of the film.

13lstuner was right. The marks left behind in my car were cuz my drying towel sucks ass or was too get. Tried a new one. Take a look at it

Its a weird towel though. Its a really heavy and doesn't slide easy. I'm hope that's a drying towel. It absorbed all the water wonderfully then spray some quick detailer and used the other drying towel. Oh and I guess my biggest issue is towel. My windows look amazing this time. I did two times cleaning using armor all window cleaner that had left but this time used two brand new microfiber towels and they windows look so good lol

If it's not sliding easy be careful. You could risk scratches at that point. My dry me crazy towel glides across my paint.

Yes. Or by hand.

The towel dragging probably is a combination of poor quality and poor paint conditions. The smoother your finish, the more easily any towel will slide across. The better the towel only increases that.

Just always be cautious about assuming money will cure these issues. Evaluating the true cause is vital.

Has your paint been clayed? If it hasn't in three years that could contribute to why your towel is dragging.
