Maybe I'll buy a Milwaukee portable wet/dry vac that also doubles as a blower.
Hmmm, I forgot to mention that I only use Optimum No Rinse with no hoses so that makes a big difference. Another thing I have done in the past is to pull that window seal back and run a dry MF towel between it and the window to dry it out after using a blower/compressed air to dry it out prior.
