I use my Stihl for the serious workOUT. Usually starts on about the 30th pull. Only 3 years old and been that way since new. Service guy can find nothing wrong. Says it was flooded, lol. I have a Remington corded blower I use for drying the cars, but am looking into a cordless.

Leaf Blower to dry the car? I use a Metro Master Blaster Revolution or Side Kick. They're made to dry vehicles with filtered heated air. There isn't any filter in my leaf blower, one in any of those mentioned above? After doing a two bucket wash I'm not about to take the chance of blowing dust and/or dirt onto my clean and polished vehicles. I use my leaf blower for yard work...

You realize your talking about the exact same air the car will be parked/driven in after it is dry, and the same air you breathe, don't you?

Apples to Oranges
I'm talking about safely drying a clean car.

I use an electric one. Powerful as hell, and i also open both doors and windows and blow the carpets, seats window wells and headliner right thru to the other side vents and all, Its a no brainer,
JUST HANG ON TO THOSE RUBBER cup holders and rubber door well inserts. |
