Cleaning problems, I got spots! Options

[Stipt]

Well first off I washed my car with a circular cloth sponge which worked out pretty well. After that I rinsed it off and use a chamios to dry it which didn't seem to work so well, it didn't really pick up much water and left alot of streak marks. Its brand new and I was told to soak it in dish soap for a day and then wringe out all the soap and then soak it in water and wring it out again. That is not all...after I was done drying my car, I used a spray on wax for my car. The wax didn't seem to work too well at all. It left spot marks on my hood that made me extremely frustrated. I sprayed it on, spread it across the hood, let it dry and then buffed it off with polish car rags. I did this several times but the spots are still one it. Should I strip off all the wax with Dawn soap and then re-wax my car? What kinda brand of chamios/wax should I use that works good for you and are there better things than a chamios to dry your car with? I tried Terry towels and they always seem to have HUGE amounts of lint, so now I just use them as hand towels Thanks for the info guys! (and girls for the few on here)

well chamois never really worked for me so I use "the absorber", which is an artificial chamois.. but even that doesnt work too well because it tends to drag.. so Im thinking of getting something like this

California Water Blade

has anybody tried this thing???
