Shop vac drying

ehoffman · 01-28-2016, 04:57 PM

Has anybody used a shop vac to blow dry their car? I'm thinking about getting a 10hp one to vacuum my car and use it for touchless drying

I use the metro master blaster.

Filtered warm air for your drying pleasure. Shop vac could work but the master blaster was designed for this.

+1 for the master blaster. We use it all the time! It moves an incredible amount of air.

While a leaf blower is functional.... there is no going back after you try the master blaster

I use my shop vac on blow... if you can funnel down the end to more of a nozzle... done... I also use it to blow the garage floor before I start.

Metro master blaster way overpriced. No real competition I guess
