Or cars and dogs too. I can definitely appreciate your opinion about the price because the thing ain't cheap. However, it is way better than compressed air for the reasons that Mike brought up and for the fact that the air is heated and you move a lot more volume with it.

Absolutely not. You do want to completely dry your car with it as that is what it is for. If you have water drying on the car then that's an issue with your water, or the surface of your paint is not in the condition that it needs to be in. It also helps to dry your car in the shade. I have never experienced the water drying issue that you speak of.

I agree. If finances are a issue, this is a major luxury item, especially if you are not using it as much as I do (2-3 times a week), or you are not trying to achieve flawless paint. It is not in everyone's financial budget but it is worth every penny. The Master Blaster delivers and I will be putting out a video of it soon. This is a car dryer of Ferrari proportions. Also as Mike pointed out, you need a heavy gauge outlet to use it. This sucker draws 18 amps when in use with both motors running. You need some juice to run this puppy full bore!
