A good thing to bring with you is a bucket that you should fill up before you start spraying down your car. At the end, with this bucket of water, you can use a bowl to scoop this water out to sheet the beads off your car. This will basically dry your car. Pat down the remaining beads to avoid any possible scratching.
Read a little about the Cquartz product, it looks great, but it looks like you need a lot of prep work in order to properly lay it down.
