The *less* you touch it, the less you can induce marring. I universally always dry the car with leaf blower, and then blot dry any remaining bits of water that remain.
In your recent post, I sense you want to take care/maintain the paint. My last comment was just to say, don't screw up all that hard work - cause once can very easily put those small marring you describe right back with bad wash/dyy techniques.
Even with -high solids- coating, marring happens....IMO.
Good luck. And don't forget to open the doors and can coat the jambs, and most importantly the bottom sill, especially the very edge/end of where the front door meets the fender. There is. weep hole in the spot as well as the rear door (middle of the sill) - that a majority of gunk tends to show up there, due to just where the weep hole is relative to the bottom door sill.

Very good advice, TY!
I do foam wash initially and rinse without touching with mitt. 1-2 times if it needed, then do the bucket method.
Never used leaf blower to dry. I have couple of Meguiar water magnet towel.

Which Foam do you use for foam wash?
