IMO Car Wash question
Hi all!
Just a bit of a daft question but something i've never known :rotfl:
At IMO car washes, after you've been through the brushes, wax and dryer, just before the exit it's got some long blue strips of rubber on a rotary mechanism, so as your car goes through, these strips go over the windows/bodywork of your car.
They don't seem to be doing any damage or anything, but could anyone tell me what they do??
Thanks

I've only been through our local car wash once (it always scratches the paintwork) but didn't notice any of those rubber strips. Can't think what purpose they serve, maybe someone else will know. Now I'm curious! 0

They just help absorb off any residue, just like a mop. 0

The ones a bit like a fly net for the back door?0
