Do you use these to fully dry a car instead of a cloth?, or just to finish off ?
It depends, if your car's really well protected eg. ceramic coated or similar, then you can sheet 99% of the water off and just use the dryer to blow off the remaining 1%, clear the nooks and crannies, wheels and tyres etc.If you still have a fair bit of water on the car then it's probably easier to microfibre as much as you can first.
It's swings and roundabouts, I actually found that trying to dry solely with the blower (my car currently only has a basic sealent coating) was taking a while and starting to reuslt in water streaks when trying to dry in warm weather.
The Metrovac I use is quite powerful but it's a directed flow of air, so perfect for blasting gaps and crevices but on large surfaces it tends to move the water around rather than quickly clearing it.
