Leaf blowers, I'd estimate with at least 1800 watts.

Did the B5 at 0600 this morn, looked like it'd been through a mound of dead (socialist) Frenchmen.

No need for drying towels or filtered hyper water, this baby is epic and will have those obsessives amongst the franternity cooing with approval.

The wife looked at me from a window on high and simply shook her head.



Poota toota, Solo?

better make sure it's got some pretty good filtering on its air intake, otherwise any grit, sand etc that gets near the inflow is going to be fired at your obsessively looked-after finish at high speed (!)

If you're actually blowing the water off the car, all well and good, but if you're just using airflow to speed evaporation, all the mineral salts in the not-hyper-filtered water will be left on the paintwork...

Food for thought...

Yes, Greedo, I was just going to see your boss...

And, with the absence of a driveway at the moment, this is what worries me about the purchase of such a device. My neighbours already sneer at me and cross the road where possible. This may only make matters worse, I fear.
