Is there anything else just as good as that Master Blaster? Thanks

Maybe not quite as convenient due to having to carry it as you go, but I’m happy with McKee’s 37

If I really feel like it, I'll break out my backpack leaf blower. It does the best job at removing water, but I also have an electric similar to what cyi1 posted above, and it works too, just not as well.

I have both the full size master blaster, as well as the smaller hand-held, and do not use either anymore.

A leaf blower is adequate but the Master Blaster has heated air that's also filtered.

As a Professional Detailer...No. Master Blaster is the best.

As a avid watcher, fan and follower of ammo nyc (larry the famous car detailer), i think if you wash your car properly, there is no need for a master blaster. Maybe for little nooks and crannies a leaf blower might work. But a master blaster is more precise and has a filter. Not to mention the air has heat.

Definitely this. I use a master blaster every time I wash my car and it is a thing of beauty.
