I use a "detailers choice" shammy. They're cheap and work decently enough.

i usually use microfiber towel after driving home from the car wash because that will get all the drips out of the cracks, and help the drying process.

California Water blade and a shammy. The cheap water blades don't work so just spend the 20$ on the original water blade, California.
