I have always used an electric leaf blower to dry my car and thought it probably did 80% of the results one would get with the Master Blaster. Man was I wrong! If you are on the fence, I highly recommend this unit. The hot air makes the difference. Even my aftermarket rims (with all their crevices) were a breeze. Should have bought this years ago.

Maybe a before and after shot would have assisted in your point.
Before = Wet
After = Dry
Not sure what you would get out of an after shot. The master blaster just cuts down on the drying time and the hot air blows the water out of the pita areas such as the rear lights, mirrors and side markers.
Here is an after shot all dried.
And here is a shot of a Noble M400 at Mid Ohio. It is dry too.

Off topic but where did you get that hood? Car ( red z) looks awesome!
Great little tool in ones detail cabinet. I get a kick out the people that chime in on other threads like this and say a leaf blower will do the same thing cheaper.
I also use mine to blow out gutters, blow out the garage, blow out the coils on the fridge. I recently used it to blow out all the debris in my landscaping rocks. It will actually lift and blow around the rocks to get at all the crap under the rocks.
car looks great!i use a leaf blower..stihl gas powered.........i am sure it has enough velocity as the blaster.....does the hot air dry the car without any need of a cloth to get rid of water droplets?thanks for any input.j.k.

Yes, the hot air evaporates the water so you don't need a cloth. You can accomplish the same thing by parking in the sun to create the same water spots.
if i dont need a cloth that sounds good.but i do hit it with detail spray when i dry trying to help on keeping the car "slick" hoping bugs and dirt will come off easier on the next wash...........jack
Just got mine and I agree that is a great tool. Eliminated the water from my Black car quickly without ever having to put a cloth of any type on the finish.
Works very well and I think for what it accomplishes so efficiently the price is really not all that bad. In fact I consider it a bit of a bargin.

Way too expensive to dry the car. I use micro fiber towels with a bit of detail spray and for me that is good enough. Not that much of an effort or time.
I am sure it does a good job, but as soon as I have finished the final sheet rinse I pull the car into the garage and use the leaf blower to remove 90% of the water. I then mist one area at a time and dry the car with a large waffle weave towel. That does two things, one I finish getting the water off and I also have a little more pop in the paint.
I like the sheet rinse as a finishing touch. For those not familiar with it, is after you use the hose nozzle to remove all of the soap foam, I remove the nozzle and let the water in the hose run over the car completely. This does away with the majority of the beads of water.
