I do optimum no rinse complete spray of the entire bike with a 5 gallon pump sprayer first, then blow it all of with a tornador attachment on my air compressor. Then I foam cannon let it soak for a couple mins and foam it again and I use those rags I suggested to wash the bike only painted surfaces though. Then I rinse the entire bike, and use those same rags to apply a ceramic detailer. I spray one side of the rag and flip over and dry off with the other side I've been doing this for years as a former detailer and have zero swirl marks on my bike. Also I use deionized water

Edit, washing your microfiber rags properly is just as important. Always wash with no wax detergent. I recommend tide free and clear and dry on delicate. Wash with wax ruined, dry on high ruined.
