Yes, but that is why I use a towel with Z6.
The blower gets the bulk of the water off and the water in the cracks.

I use a Cobra microfiber wash mitt with Duragloss or Pinnacle car wash via a Pinnacle "foam master" foam gun. I dry my car with Cobra waffle weave microfiber.

Why waste money on towels when you can spend $30 at home depot and get a leaf blower? Then just micro fiber the excess up. No water spots.
