I used one on my Matrix - never on the tC. I just wax off water stains after the car dries up. Actually thanks for reminding me - I'll put the "blade" in the shower to get the water drops off the walls (damn mildew).
i bought one from wal-mart a few months back..works great, the only thing is to make sure the silicon blade is in GOOD condition and no dirt gets stuck in the lips of it..also make sure that your car is dirt free after washing with no rock, pebbles, sand etc. or it WILL scratch the surface..
yeah I used it once and then put it to the side cause I noticed small scratches as it ran down the paint, of course they were hairline scratches but scratches none-the-less
I use it on the glass only. It is like a fiberglass coated rod used to clean your firearms. It picks up the grit and will not give it up even with good cleaning. That grit goes up against the finish of your car (or inside of the barrel if you are thinking firearms). Neither is good.
tried it on my tc a couple of weeks ago, works ok but you're better off using a clean terry cloth towel. With the blade in order to do edges or creases, you must apply quite a bit of pressure to the body which kind of put me off of it. The end result was nothing great.
I bought one like two years ago. Used it once and returned it. You might as well save yourself the $10 or so and just use a regular squegee, same concept.
