Default QD as Drying Aid?

I see a lot of people talking about using a QD as a drying aid when washing, but can't find much more info on this.

How does this help?

Do you just lightly spray the wet car with QD before you dry? What does it accomplish? Less streaking?

Thanks.

How does this help? QDer works as a lube to minimize marring the paint and to lessen the swirls when drying

Do you just lightly spray the wet car with QD before you dry? What does it accomplish? Less streaking? when the car is damp hit the panels with a spritz or two of QDer ..be sure to spritz your drying towel as well

Thanks.
