In Reply to: Leaf blowers for drying posted by DM on October 22, 2000 at 14:42:34:

After washing the car, I open the trunk and all the doors to let the water that is trapped there to run out quick. I then shut the doors and dry the car with a 200MPH MAX rated electric blower.

I try to avoid blowing water "into" places such as the door handles, window/door seals, etc. It is excellent for removing water under the badges, between the front grille and bumper, from the gas filler cap and from between the bumper caps and the body. If you have a good coat of wax on, the water just flies off and whatever residual water droplets that you may have are easily blotted off with a clean chamois.

Combining this with a Karcher electric pressure washer wakes car washing a "breeze".
