Try waxing your car and washing it completely before drying....

you're not getting all the soap off.

Answer 5

Its minerals or dust in the water left behind after the water evaporates.  Try a spot free rinse.  If you get desperate, try having the car detailed with a water repelling protective coating such as Zaino.  It may help the water bead up and run off more easily.
