Washing my Mustang

[DivineStrike]

What's a real concern is if there are these pockets holding water will this cause eventually rust?

answer could be a yes or my car just sucks from the factory

Where on your car are those rust spots? Can't tell from the photos.

I have one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MTQ3Y1J/ref=dp_cerb_2

Just 20 bones and easy to maneuver. It blows out the nooks and crannies and does a great job on the wheels too. Just wipe up with your favorite microfiber.

Not cheap, but a water deionizer was the best car accessory I've ever bought. I haven't dried a car since. Just wash with normal water then rinse down with the deionized water. Finally I use a leaf blower to get a lot of the water off then just let it sit. If you hit the cracks and mirror housings well it will flush out the dirty water.

I bought it because it seemed like every scratch occurred during drying and I hated the steaks from the water left in the seams.

It's a matter of accepting the inevitable. The three worst spots are the hood just above the headlights, mirrors, and where the taillight panel meets trunk lid at the top. Doors continue to drip on the sills for hours, too. You can blow and wipe them all day but they won't fully drain until you go for a drive, so I take the long way to the gas station, and wipe up the drips while the tank fills.

I have one similar to that. Works great for me.
