How does everyone combat the water streaks that come after a bath or a rain from the door handles and the emblems? It looks disgusting.

Master blaster, or air hose on air compressor.

Electric leaf blower. Or, just let it sit for a while after washing before you dry.

I use a leaf blower too. Then wipe it down again with a chamois...

I don't have a blower so I let the truck sit or bring something with me to finish drying about a mile down the road. Sucks having to pull over but it's worth it

Start by cleaning the door handles and emblems better when you wash it. Detailing brushes work great for that.

Otherwise, compressed air or a Master Blaster or leaf blower as others have said.

This may or may not apply---the dressing that you may or may not use on your trim may be "bleeding" down..

It's more or less from the rain I got this weekend. On my F150 I had the doors did the same thing, drove me crazy but not as bad because it was white. But this one being black it shows up more.

Surprisingly I have not had such problems in this truck. I keep a fresh coat of wax on all the time so everything slides off pretty good.

I had a Toyota Tundra before the raptor and the mirrors would hold a LOT of water. It would drip for a whole day.
