Default Master Blaster

I'm not a vendor nor did I purchase this thing through a vendor here. So this is not a case of someone pushing their own product...

I had purchased one of these to help me clean a large truck. I just used it for the first time tonight on the Z06. Holy smokes. I washed and dried the car in about 15 minutes. All of the claims are true. If anything understated. It works incredibly well on the wheels and all of the areas where water "hides". One suggestion is to get another 10' extension hose. That allows you to dry the whole car without moving the unit.

That's way we at ProperAutoCare.com sell it! The Metro Master Blaster is one way to touch-free dry your vehicle! Eliminate that risk of fine swirls caused by using the wrong towels.

A good leaf blower does the same thing.

Not in my experience. I've used the leaf blower and there are several differences...

- It does not have a hose so it's not as easy to move around the car. Forget about using it on a truck...

- It does not filter the air

- It does not spit out warm air

- It's unlikely it's as strong as the MB

I was pretty skeptical on this thing but gave in when my back problems conflicted with my need to keep my truck (and vette) clean.

We sell alot of these Metro units especially to the motorcycle crowd. I would not however discount a good leaf blower either. Both products mean less wiping and that equates to less swirls and marring. Another great advice is to spritz car after blowing with a quick detailer and lightly blotting to remove any spotting.
