I did the leaf blower drying method last weekend for the first time after washing it. It actually turned out great, no spots or drips. It should be even better/faster after ceramic.
I'm about to pull the trigger on an EGO 765. My leaf blower now is half that. It's pretty comical when the landscapers are blowing off my property and I'm in the garage blowing my car dry!

Haha yeah I know it just look ridiculous. But it worked and I didn't touch the car! I've got a plug in electric that's good enough for now. After the ceramic is done and I can really evaluate the difference it makes, I will reevaluate if a shorter tube/cordless blower is worth the investment. I have a backpack blower for real yard work, so the expense would strictly be for the car/garage.
